Abstract

The study aimed to conduct a systematic review, in order to map the association between cardiorespiratory fitness, screen time and weight status in children and adolescents, as well as verifying the direction of these relationships. The search was carried out according to the PRISMA recommendations, in the Web of Science, Scopus, and Medline databases. Complete and original studies, published between 2000 and March 2021, that evaluated the variables cited concomitantly and / or associations were included. 152 articles were identified, and after refinement according to outcomes, 30 documents were evaluated qualitatively. It can be seen that the health variables, such as cardiorespiratory fitness, screen time and weight status, continue with negatively alarming data in this population, and that they are strongly correlated, demonstrating that the modification of one of them may interfere with the others , thus improving the health status of children and adolescents.
