Swedish Adolescents With Impairments Showed Lower Levels of Physical Activity, Fitness and Sports Participation

Acta Paediatrica, Volume 115, Issue 4, Page 873-881, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Evidence on physical activity (PA), sedentary time, and fitness in adolescents with impairments has been limited. We aimed to compare outcomes in Swedish adolescents with and without impairments and between impairment types. Methods This cross‐sectional study, from September to December 2019, comprised of adolescents from 34 mainstream ...
