Title: Cardiometabolic health profile of young girls with aesthetic professions
Version: 1 Date: 27 Oct 2021
Reviewer's report:
This cross-sectional study aims to analyse the relationship between physical fitness levels,
cardiometabolic health markers, mental health and dietary habits in non-conventional
professions. This paper stands out positively when looking at the topic of public health in the
young female population. However, I think some things need clarifying for the publication that
will help in the overall interpretation and understanding of the results.
Title
Comment 1-  The title of the manuscript is “The relationship between cardiometabolic risk
and physical fitness in girls with aesthetic professions”, which suggests analyzing the level of
physical fitness (dependent variable) through the analysis of cardiometabolic risk variables as
potential indicators (independent variable) in a specific sample (girls with aesthetic professions).
The authors only compared indicators of health between different groups of aesthetic
professions. Can the authors explain this contradiction between title and statistical analysis?
I suggest to the authors complete the statistical analysis based on the manuscript title, " The
relationship between ......"

Introduction
Comment 7 - “Faced with that, some professions gained prominence in the world scenario, as

inclusion” – Please add the reference.
Comment 9 – Line 135 – “In this sense, it appears that the physical fitness level plays an
important role in the performance of young people who have non-conventional professions.”

several indicators and predictors of health, and especially in this specific population.
