This is particularly important in Latin American countries because they present the highest burden of non-communicable diseases relative to other worldwide regions. This study aimed to examine the patterns of active transportation and its association with sociodemographic inequities in Latin American countries.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>This cross-sectional study was conducted in eight countries. Participants (n\u2009=\u20098547, 18\u201365 years) self-reported their active transportation (walking, cycling, and total) using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Sex, age, ethnicity, socioeconomic level, education level, public and private transport use, and transport mode were used as sociodemographic inequities.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Participants spent a total of 19.9, 3.1, and 23.3\u00a0min\/day with walking, cycling, and total active transportation, respectively. Mixed and other ethnicity (Asian, Indigenous, Gypsy, and other), high socioeconomic level as well as middle and high education level presented higher walking than Caucasian, low socioeconomic and education level. Private transport mode and use of \u2265\u20096 days\/week of private transport showed lower walking than public transport mode and \u2264\u20092 days\/week of private transport. Use of \u2265\u20093 days\/week of public transport use presented higher walking than \u2264\u20092 days\/week of public transport. Men had higher cycling for active transportation than women. Use of \u2265\u20093 days\/week of public transport use presented higher cycling than \u2264\u20092 days\/week of public transport. \u22656 days\/week showed lower cycling than \u2264\u20092 days\/week of private transport use. Men (<jats:italic>b<\/jats:italic>: 5.57: 95\u00a0%CI: 3.89;7.26), black (3.77: 0.23;7.31), mixed (3.20: 1.39;5.00) and other ethnicity (7.30: 2.55;12.04), had higher total active transportation than women and Caucasian. Private transport mode (-7.03: -11.65;-2.41) and \u2265\u20096 days\/week of private transport use (-4.80: -6.91;-0.31) showed lower total active transportation than public transport mode and \u2264\u20092 days\/week of private transport use.
