心肺健康对年轻人的健康有益。在女性中，体重相对健康在青春期下降，非洲裔美国人（AA）比白人女孩更低。数据表明，青春期的时间和速度存在种族差异，但青春期和种族对健康的相互影响，以及体育活动（PA）在这些关联中的作用尚未得到检验。因此，在控制PA的情况下，我们检验了种族和青春期发育与青春期女孩健康的独立和互动关系。5-8年级女生（n = 1011，白种人= 25.2%,AA = 52.3%，其他种族组= 22.5%）完成了青春期发育量表（青春期阶段评估）和Fitnessgram®进行性有氧心血管耐力跑（PACER）测试（心肺健康评估）。PA采用加速度计测定。双变量和多变量分析检验了种族、青春期阶段和健康之间的关系，控制了旺盛的PA、AA，青春期提前的女孩比白种人和不太成熟的女孩表现出更低的健康。在控制了高强度PA后，青春期和种族仍然与健康显著相关。种族和青春期对适合度的交互作用不显著。在AA青少年中观察到青春期对健康的影响。健康与种族/青春期之间的联系似乎是相互独立的，并且是活跃的PA。青春期高级AA女孩是健康干预的优先群体。
Cardiorespiratory fitness affords health benefits to youth. Among females, weight-relative fitness declines during puberty and is lower among African American (AA) than Caucasian girls. Data indicate racial differences in pubertal timing and tempo, yet the interactive influence of puberty and race on fitness, and the role of physical activity (PA) in these associations have not been examined. Thus, independent and interactive associations of race and pubertal development with fitness in adolescent girls, controlling for PA were examined. Girls in grades 5–8 (n = 1011; Caucasian = 25.2%, AA = 52.3%, Other Race group = 22.5%) completed the Pubertal Development Scale (pubertal stage assessment) and Fitnessgram® Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run (PACER) test (cardiorespiratory fitness assessment). PA was assessed by accelerometry. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were used to examine associations among race, pubertal stage and fitness, controlling for vigorous PA, AA, and pubertally advanced girls demonstrated lower fitness than Caucasian and less mature counterparts. Puberty and race remained significantly associated with fitness after controlling for vigorous PA. The interaction effect of race and puberty on fitness was non-significant. The pubertal influence on fitness is observed among AA adolescents. Associations between fitness and race/puberty appear to be independent of each other and vigorous PA. Pubertally advanced AA girls represent a priority group for fitness interventions.
