About

This is a cross-sectional study aimed to investigate microvascular reactivity in prepubertal children according to adiposity status.

Full description

The investigators aimed to investigate microvascular reactivity in prepubertal and to compare these data in different groups according to adiposity status. Firstly, The investigators recruited only children from 5 to 10 years at prepubertal status. After excluding those with exclusion criteria and the acceptance (from their parents) to participate in the study, a blood sample was collected and an appointment at BioVasc lab was programmed. At this day, participants were subject to nail fold videocapillaroscopy. A method used to investigate microvascular reactivity by a non-invasive mean. After this, participants children were followed to the outpatient's care unit to continue follow-up.
