Journal ArticleDOI

Charlotte L. Edwardson,Stuart J. H. Biddle,Stacy A. Clemes,Melanie J. Davies,David W. Dunstan,Helen Eborall,Malcolm H. Granat,Laura J. Gray,Genevieve N. Healy,Nishal Bhupendra Jaicim,Sarah Lawton,Benjamin D. Maylor,Fehmidah Munir,Gerry Richardson,Thomas Yates,AM Clarke-Cornwell +15 more
TL;DR: Both SWAL and SWAL plus desk were associated with a reduction in sitting time, although the addition of a height adjustable desk was found to be threefold more effective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Joint associations of poor diet quality and prolonged television viewing time with abnormal glucose metabolism in Australian men and women.
Marina M. Reeves,Genevieve N. Healy,Genevieve N. Healy,Neville Owen,Jonathan E. Shaw,Paul Zimmet,David W. Dunstan +6 more
TL;DR: Diet quality and television viewing time were significantly associated with AGM in women, independent of waist circumference, and both poor diet quality and prolonged television viewing should be addressed to reduce risk of AGM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined effects of continuous exercise and intermittent active interruptions to prolonged sitting on postprandial glucose, insulin, and triglycerides in adults with obesity: a randomized crossover trial

TL;DR: Assessment of the effects of a continuous exercise bout with and without intermittent active interruptions to prolonged sitting on postprandial glucose, insulin, and triglycerides found that this strategy may reduce postPRandial insulin more in those with high basal insulin resistance, butThose with high fasting triglycerides may be resistant to such intervention-induced reductions in triglycerides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prolonged uninterrupted sitting increases fatigue in type 2 diabetes
Paddy C. Dempsey,Paddy C. Dempsey,David W. Dunstan,Robyn N. Larsen,Gavin W. Lambert,Bronwyn A. Kingwell,Neville Owen +6 more
TL;DR: It is found that prolonged uninterrupted sitting increased fatigue by 29% relative to days when sitting was regularly interrupted by brief activity-breaks, and this may have implications for diabetes-related quality of life, occupational productivity and self-care.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of height-adjustable desks and prompts to break-up classroom sitting on adolescents' energy expenditure, adiposity markers and perceived musculoskeletal discomfort.
Ana María Contardo Ayala,Bronwyn Sudholz,Jo Salmon,David W. Dunstan,David W. Dunstan,David W. Dunstan,Nicola D. Ridgers,Lauren Arundell,Anna Timperio +8 more
TL;DR: Preliminary indications that these strategies for breaking-up prolonged sitting during school lessons may benefit health among adolescents in the short term are provided, however, extended longer-duration trials are needed to determine longer-term health effects.
