Trends and distributional characteristics in handgrip strength of 1,082,296 children and adolescents in China: an analysis from five representative cross-sectional surveys from 2000 to 2019
No significant changes were observed in HGS adjusted for height and weight, but there were significant differences in sex, age and distribution. Policies and intervention strategies need to prioritize low-health groups, especially among post-pubertal boys or high-fitness performers.
