Abstract Patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) are diagnosed using imaging, but detailed description especially the acetabular shape is lacking and may help give more insight to the pathogenesis of FAIS. Furthermore, associations between patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and the radiological angles might highlight which radiological angles affect outcomes experienced by the patients. Hence, the aims of this study were (i) to describe computer tomography (CT) acquired angles in patients with FAIS and (ii) to investigate the association between radiological angles and the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) in patients with FAIS. Patients scheduled for primary hip arthroscopic surgery for FAIS were included. Based on CT, following angles were measured before and 1 year after surgery; femoral anteversion, alpha, lateral centre edge, acetabular index, anterior sector, posterior sector and acetabular anteversion. All patients completed the HAGOS. Sixty patients (63% females) aged 36 ± 9 were included. One year after surgery, significant alterations in the alpha angle and the acetabular index angle were found. Neither baseline PROs nor changes in PROs were associated with the radiological angles or changes in angles. Since neither changes in CT angles nor baseline scores were associated with HAGOS, the improvements felt by patients must origin from somewhere else. These findings further underlines that morphological changes seen at imaging should not be treated arthroscopically without a patient history of symptoms and clinical findings.

<em><strong>Background:</strong></em> The level of physical fitness in south Asian immigrants living in Norway is largely unknown, but the level of physical activity seems to be low, possibly in part explaining their high prevalence of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. However, previous studies have used self-reported measures of physical activity, and it might be questioned whether the previous data reflect the true physical activity level.<br /><em><strong>Aim:</strong></em> To describe objectively measured physical activity level, cardiorespiratory fitness and diabetes risk in a group of Pakistani immigrant men living in Oslo, Norway.<br /><em><strong>Methods:</strong></em> One hundred and fifty Pakistani immigrant men in the age group 25-60 years were included. Physical activity level was assessed with an accelerometer. Cardiorespiratory fitness was measured until exhaustion on a treadmill, and diabetes risk was evaluated with an oral glucose tolerance test.<br /><em><strong>Results:</strong></em> Mean age was 37.3 years (SD=7.7). Total physical activity level was 308 counts/min (SD=131), and peak oxygen uptake was 34.2 ml·kg-1·min-1 (SD=5.6). Fifty percent of the participants had the metabolic syndrome, and 76% were obese. Physical activity level and cardiorespiratory fitness level were lower, and prevalence of the metabolic syndrome higher in a subgroup of taxi drivers as compared with those in<br />other occupations (P&lt;0.05).<br /><em><strong>Conclusions:</strong></em> Physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness levels are low and diabetes risk high among Pakistani immigrant men living in Oslo, especially in taxi drivers

El objetivo del presente estudio fue examinar los niveles objetivos de actividad física durante las clases de Educación Física en adolescentes chilenos, identificando posibles diferencias según el género. En el presente estudio participaron 156 estudiantes de enseñanza básica de Chile (69 niñas y 87 varones, edad media = 13.5 ± .7 años). Se eliminaron 34 participantes por no cumplir los criterios mínimos de registro, seleccionando finalmente a 122 adolescentes. Se evaluaron los niveles objetivos de actividad física de una clase de Educación Física mediante el acelerómetro GT3X. Los resultados mostraron que ningún participante alcanzó las recomendaciones de tiempo de práctica de actividad física moderada-vigorosa del 50% durante las clases de Educación Física. La mayoría de los estudiantes (50.7% de chicos y 72.5% de chicas) acumularon menos del 10% del tiempo de clase de Educación Física en actividad física moderada-vigorosa. Los chicos presentaron mayores valores de actividad física moderada-vigorosa que las mujeres (p < .05), pero no se encontraron diferencias en el tiempo sedentario ni en la actividad física ligera (p > .05). Los adolescentes chilenos no cumplen las recomendaciones de actividad física moderada-vigorosa en clases de Educación Física. Se discuten diferentes estrategias de incremento del tiempo empleado en dicha actividad física moderada-vigorosa como medidas a considerar. Abstract. The aim of the present study was to examine objective levels of physical activity during Physical Education (PE) classes in Chilean adolescents, identifying possible differences according to gender. A sample composed of 156 Chilean adolescents (69 female and 87 male, average age = 13.5 ± .7 years) participated in this study. A total of 34 adolescents did not meet the inclusion criteria and were excluded, with 122 participants finally considered for the data analyses. Objective levels of physical activity were assessed by means of GT3X accelerometers during a PE lesson. The results showed that none of the participants reached the recommended 50% of total PE time at moderate-to-vigorous physical activity level. Most of the students (50.7% males and 72.5% females) accumulated less than 10% of the PE time at moderate-to-vigorous physical activity level. Boys showed higher values of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity than girls (p < .05); however, there were no gender differences in sedentary behavior or light physical activity time (p > .05). Chilean adolescents do not meet the moderate-to-vigorous physical activity recommendations during PE lessons. Different strategies are discussed in order to increase the time spent at moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in PE.

Independent associations between personal- and demographic characteristics and physical activity in 3–6 year old children attending preschool were identified in this study. Boys spent a larger proportion of the time on moderate-and-vigorous physical activity (MVPA; p < .001) and had a higher total physical activity level compared with girls (p < .001). The 3–4 year old children spent less time on MVPA and had a lower total physical activity level compared with both 4–5 (p < .01) and 5–6 year old children (p < .001). The individual preschool, gender and age of preschool children were strong predictors of physical activity (R2-total model=(0.36−0.39)) during preschool attendance.
