Introduction: Cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) have their origin in childhood. Several studies have shown differences in the prevalence of CVRFs between rural and urban areas, probably related to lifestyle behaviors.Objective: To describe the CVRFs identified in children from a rural and urban population in Colombia. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between March and June 2013 in schoolchildren from an urban and a rural area in Colombia. Weight, height, blood pressure, triglycerides, fasting glucose, and total cholesterol were measured, and a survey covering nutrition, physical activity, and passive smoking was applied. The prevalence of CVRFs was calculated with a 95% CI. Results: A total of 1,055 schoolchildr...
