Journal ArticleDOI
Reducing office workers’ sitting time: rationale and study design for the Stand Up Victoria cluster randomized trial
David W. Dunstan,Glen Wiesner,Elizabeth G. Eakin,Maike Neuhaus,Neville Owen,Anthony D. LaMontagne,Marjory Moodie,Elisabeth A. H. Winkler,Brianna S. Fjeldsoe,Sheleigh Lawler,Genevieve N. Healy,Genevieve N. Healy,Genevieve N. Healy +12 more
TL;DR: The Stand Up Victoria study aims to determine whether a 3-month multi-component intervention in the office setting reduces workplace sitting, particularly prolonged, unbroken sitting time, and results in improvements in cardio-metabolic biomarkers and work-related outcomes, compared to usual practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in height explain gender differences in the response to the oral glucose tolerance test- the AusDiab study.
R.A. Sicree,P.Z. Zimmet,David W. Dunstan,Adrian J. Cameron,Timothy A Welborn,Jonathan E. Shaw +5 more
TL;DR: To determine the extent of gender‐related differences in the prevalence of glucose intolerance for the Australian population and whether body size may explain such differences, a large number of patients diagnosed with glucose intolerance have been male.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedentary behavior as a risk factor for cognitive decline? A focus on the influence of glycemic control in brain health
Michael Wheeler,Michael Wheeler,Paddy C. Dempsey,Paddy C. Dempsey,Megan S. Grace,Kathryn A. Ellis,Kathryn A. Ellis,Paula Gardiner,Daniel J. Green,Daniel J. Green,David W. Dunstan,David W. Dunstan,David W. Dunstan +12 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that reducing and replacing sedentary behavior with intermittent light‐intensity physical activity may protect against cognitive decline by reducing glycemic variability, and more research is needed to understand the impact of poor glycemic control on brain function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Don't take cancer sitting down: a new survivorship research agenda.
TL;DR: There is a need for dose‐response evidence, and for a broader understanding of the underlying mechanisms by which prolonged sitting time may affect cancer survivors' health, to help extend disease‐free survival and enhance quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of dietary fish and exercise training on urinary F2-isoprostane excretion in non-insulin-dependent diabetic patients.
Trevor A. Mori,Trevor A. Mori,David W. Dunstan,David W. Dunstan,Valerie Burke,Valerie Burke,Kevin D. Croft,Kevin D. Croft,Jennifer Rivera,Jennifer Rivera,Lawrence J. Beilin,Lawrence J. Beilin,Ian B. Puddey,Ian B. Puddey +13 more
TL;DR: Findings show that, at least in the short-term, exercise had no effect, whereas the inclusion of regular fish meals as part of a low-fat diet reduced in vivo lipid peroxidation in dyslipidemic NIDDM patients.
