متن کاملReprint of "Relationship between BMI, waist circumference, physical activity and probable developmental coordination disorder over time".
BACKGROUND Cross-sectional studies have shown that children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) are less likely to be physically active and have excess weight gain. However, longitudinal studies examining the relationship between DCD and measures of body composition (BMI and waist circumference) over time are lacking.
