Non-Invasive Assessment of Early Health Determinants in Children and Adolescents

Sponsor: Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS

Summary

LONGEVITY-NEXT is a single-center, non-profit observational study designed to assess early non-invasive determinants of cardiometabolic, functional, behavioral, and environmental health in children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years from the general population. Participants will undergo a standardized 15-20-minute non-invasive assessment including anthropometric measurements, blood pressure and heart rate, handgrip strength, dietary habits and adherence to the Mediterranean diet, physical activity, recreational screen time, sleep duration, tobacco smoke exposure, early-life factors, chronic health conditions, and family cardiometabolic history. The primary outcome is the distribution of the number of unfavorable cardiometabolic, behavioral, and environmental health domains per participant. The study involves no experimental treatment, drug, investigational medical device, invasive procedure, or modification of usual care. Optional repeated assessments may occur opportunistically during the study while participants remain between 6 and 17 years of age.
