Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and its determinants in Australian adults aged 25 years and older : A national, population-based study
Robin M. Daly,Claudia Gagnon,Claudia Gagnon,Zhong X. Lu,Dianna J. Magliano,David W. Dunstan,Ken Sikaris,Paul Zimmet,Peter R. Ebeling,Jonathan E. Shaw +9 more
TL;DR: This study evaluated the vitamin D status of Australian adults aged ≥25 years and risk factors associated with vitamin D deficiency in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recommendations for physical activity in older adults
TL;DR: It is argued that a change in message to reduce sedentary time and increase light activities may prove more realistic and pave the way to more intense exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deleterious associations of sitting time and television viewing time with cardiometabolic risk biomarkers: Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle (AusDiab) study 2004-2005.
Alicia A. Thorp,Genevieve N. Healy,Genevieve N. Healy,Neville Owen,Neville Owen,Jo Salmon,Jo Salmon,Kylie Ball,Jonathan E. Shaw,Paul Zimmet,David W. Dunstan +10 more
TL;DR: In women and men, sitting time and TV viewing time were deleteriously associated with cardio-metabolic risk biomarkers, with sitting time having more consistent associations in both sexes and being independent of central adiposity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reducing occupational sedentary time: A systematic review and meta-analysis of evidence on activity-permissive workstations
Maike Neuhaus,Elizabeth G. Eakin,Elizabeth G. Eakin,Leon Straker,Neville Owen,David W. Dunstan,Natasha Reid,Genevieve N. Healy,Genevieve N. Healy,Genevieve N. Healy +9 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that activity‐permissive workstations can be effective to reduce occupational sedentary time, without compromising work performance, and larger and longer‐term randomized‐controlled trials are needed to understand the sustainability of the sedentaryTime reductions and their longer-term impacts on health‐ and work‐related outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical Activity and Television Viewing in Relation to Risk of Undiagnosed Abnormal Glucose Metabolism in Adults
David W. Dunstan,Jo Salmon,Neville Owen,Tim Armstrong,Paul Zimmet,Timothy A Welborn,Adrian J. Cameron,Terence Dwyer,Damien Jolley,Jonathan E. Shaw +9 more
TL;DR: A protective effect of physical activity and a deleterious effect of TV time on the risk of abnormal glucose metabolism in adults is suggested, and population strategies to reduce risk should focus on reducing sedentary behaviors such as TV time, as well as increasing physical activity.
