['To describe the relationship between screen time and dietary intake among children, and to examine this association in relation to body weight.', 'A cross-sectional analysis of 630 Canadian children aged 8-10\xa0years with at least one obese biological parent. Measurements included body mass index (BMI), screen time (television, video game, computer), physical activity (accelerometer over 7\xa0days), and diet (three 24-hour recalls for the calculation of the Canadian Healthy Eating Index (HEI-C)). Multivariate linear regression models were used to describe the relationship between screen time (≥\xa02\xa0h/d vs. <\xa02\xa0h/d) and intake of nutrients and foods among healthy weight and overweight/obese children.', 'The overall median [interquartile range] daily screen time was 2.2 [2.4] hours and 43% of children had a BMI of ≥\xa085th percentile. Longer screen time above the recommendation (≥\xa02\xa0h/d) was associated with higher intake of energy (74\xa0kcal, SE\xa0=\xa035), lower intake of fiber (-\xa00.6\xa0g/1000\xa0kcal, SE\xa0=\xa00.2) and vegetables & fruit (-\xa00.3\xa0serving/1000\xa0kcal, SE\xa0=\xa00.1) among all participants and with higher estimates in the overweight subgroup. An overall lower HEI-C (-\xa01.6, SE\xa0=\xa00.8) was also observed among children with screen time of ≥\xa02\xa0h/d. Among children of <\xa085th BMI percentile, longer screen time was associated with lower intake of vegetables & fruit (-\xa00.3\xa0serving/1000\xa0kcal, SE\xa0=\xa00.1) only.'] Is screen time associated with dietary intake in overweight Canadian children?
