Journal ArticleDOI

Television viewing and low leisure-time physical activity in adolescence independently predict the metabolic syndrome in mid-adulthood

Patrik Wennberg, +4 more
- 01 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that reduced TV viewing in adolescence, in addition to regular physical activity, may contribute to cardiometabolic health later in life.
Journal ArticleDOI

Television viewing time and weight gain in colorectal cancer survivors : a prospective population-based study

Katrien Wijndaele, +7 more
- 17 May 2009 - 
TL;DR: Findings suggest that a greater emphasis on decreasing television viewing time could help reduce weight gain among colorectal cancer survivors and contribute to a risk reduction for co-morbid conditions such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is the relationship between sedentary behaviour and cardiometabolic health in adolescents independent of dietary intake? A systematic review

Elly Fletcher, +5 more
- 01 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: Sedentary behaviour appears to be associated with adiposity in adolescents, irrespective of dietary intake, and the variability of dietary variables between studies suggests further work is needed to understand the role of dietary Intake when examining these associations in youth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensitivity to Change of Objectively-Derived Measures of Sedentary Behavior

Sebastien F. M. Chastin, +6 more
- 19 Aug 2015 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the sensitivity to change of measures of sedentary behavior derived from body worn sensors in different intervention designs and found that the activPAL was generally more sensitive but not consistently for all measures and designs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations of low-and high-intensity light activity with cardiometabolic biomarkers

Bethany Howard, +8 more
- 01 Oct 2015 - 
TL;DR: The cross-sectional findings provide novel evidence for the potential benefits of increasing both LLPA and HLPA and reinforce the established importance of moderate- to vigorous-intensity activity, the mainstay of public health recommendations.
