Biological maturation, fat mass and cardiorespiratory fitness in prepubescent girls: A mediation analysis
Background
The association between indicators of maturation and measures of physical fitness are not well correlated and vary according to chronological age, sex, body size, and motor characteristics. It is known that chronological age, maturation, and fat mass are significant predictors of cardiorespiratory fitness in girls, however, the contributions of fat mass to the relationship between maturation and endurance performance are still unclear.
Objective
The current study aimed to examine whether the association between somatic maturation and running performance in the 20-m shuttle-run in girls is mediated by estimated fat mass.
Methods
The sample comprised 67 girls, aged 8.00–8.99 years. Stature, body mass, and skinfolds were measured. Estimates of body composition and predicted mature stature (PMS) were then calculated. Current stature was expressed as a percentage of PMS and somatic maturation was given by z-scores of the percentage of PMS. Mediation analysis was performed using the bias-corrected bootstrap approach with 5000 resamples in order to obtain estimates of total, direct, and indirect effects of z-scores of the percentage of PMS on 20-m shuttle-run performance mediated by fat mass.
Results
The results show that fat mass mediated the negative effect of biological maturation on 20-m shuttle-run performance in the observed sample of prepubescent girls (Indirect effect: β = −0.177, 95%CI: −0.291 to −0.059).
Conclusion
Although the participants were prepubescent girls, poorer aerobic running performance appeared to be partly due to increased levels of fat mass.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Human Biology is the Official Journal of the Human Biology Association.
The American Journal of Human Biology is a bimonthly, peer-reviewed, internationally circulated journal that publishes reports of original research, theoretical articles and timely reviews, and brief communications in the interdisciplinary field of human biology. As the official journal of the Human Biology Association, the Journal also publishes abstracts of research presented at its annual scientific meeting and book reviews relevant to the field.
The Journal seeks scholarly manuscripts that address all aspects of human biology, health, and disease, particularly those that stress comparative, developmental, ecological, or evolutionary perspectives. The transdisciplinary areas covered in the Journal include, but are not limited to, epidemiology, genetic variation, population biology and demography, physiology, anatomy, nutrition, growth and aging, physical performance, physical activity and fitness, ecology, and evolution, along with their interactions. The Journal publishes basic, applied, and methodologically oriented research from all areas, including measurement, analytical techniques and strategies, and computer applications in human biology.
Like many other biologically oriented disciplines, the field of human biology has undergone considerable growth and diversification in recent years, and the expansion of the aims and scope of the Journal is a reflection of this growth and membership diversification.
The Journal is committed to prompt review, and priority publication is given to manuscripts with novel or timely findings, and to manuscripts of unusual interest.
