The effect of training age on blood biochemical, body composition, and body functional in children and adolescents

The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of training age blood biochemical, body composition, and body functional in children and adolescents. In this study, ۴۲۴ school students were recruited for the pilot phase of the MPCS that included children (n=۱۵۵, approximately ۳۵.۵۵%) and adolescents (n=۲۶۹, almost ۶۳.۴۴%). Since collecting data on these populations, for practical reasons, the extant investigations have also been used chronological age to explain these borders; children ≤۱۲ years and adolescents ۱۳ to ۱۸ years [۱]. Therefore, we used the current age-related boundaries for our school student population. Regarding the blood factors, there were significantly reduced HDL-c levels in the adolescents when compared to the children (p<۰.۰۵; Table ۱). Also, we observed a significant diminish in WBC in the adolescents as compared with the children (p<۰.۰۵). we besides saw a significant increase in height, weight, TBW, TBP, TBM, FFM, SMM, and BMR of the adolescents as compared with the children (p<۰.۰۵). Nevertheless, there were statistically significant reductions in BFP and obesity index of the adolescents as compared with the children (p<۰.۰۵). Concerning the incidence of IFG, our findings expressed that the risk of prediabetes was one fold higher in the children than the adolescents. Regarding the body postural deformities, we found that the mineral and protein contents of our subjects were important factors to improve the children’ and adolescents’ health as well as to avoid the postural deformities
