Variable OR (95% CI) p-Value
Anthropometric/health parameters
Obesity 1.83 (0.97–3.46) p = 0.061
Cardiometabolic risk £ (WtHR ≥0.5) 1.13 (0.65–1.97) p = 0.640
Hypertension ¥ ( ≥95th Percentile) 1.50 (0.90–2.52) p = 0.110
Low nutritional level (≤5) 3.28 (1.55–6.93) p = 0.002
Screen time
1 h 1.0
2 h 1.03 (0.37–2.92) p = 0.940
3 h 2.18 (0.81–5.81) p = 0.113

The data shown represent OR (95% CI). Values of p < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. OR adjusted by age and sex. () Obesity prevalence calculated based on the CDC (Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, Overweight and Obesity) criteria. (£) Cardiometabolic risk calculated according WtHR ≥0.5. (¥) Hypertension prevalence based on the percentile 95th as described in the Material and Methods section. Bold values denotes statistically significant differences between groups at p < 0.05 or less. Reference group; non-ethnic ascendant children.
