Results. The overall median [interquartile range] daily screen time was 2.2 [2.4] hours and 43% of children had
a BMI of ≥85th percentile. Longer screen time above the recommendation (≥2 h/d) was associated with higher
intake of energy (74 kcal, SE = 35), lower intake of fiber (−0.6 g/1000 kcal, SE = 0.2) and vegetables & fruit
(−0.3 serving/1000 kcal, SE=0.1) among all participants and with higher estimates in the overweight subgroup.
An overall lower HEI-C (−1.6, SE=0.8) was also observed among children with screen time of ≥2 h/d. Among
children of b85th BMI percentile, longer screen time was associated with lower intake of vegetables & fruit
(−0.3 serving/1000 kcal, SE = 0.1) only
