TL;DR: This meta-analysis quantitatively evaluated the association between sedentary time and health outcomes independent of physical activity participation among adult populations to encompass the range of outcomes associated with sedentary behaviors among different populations or settings and variations in the operational definition of leisure-time sedentary behavior.

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the association between physical activity and risk for disease and illness, and found that physical activity has many health-enhancing benefits, but it may not be enough to reduce the risk for diseases and illnesses.

TL;DR: The effect estimate from the meta-analysis suggests that financial incentives increase exercise session attendance for interventions up to 6 months in duration, and assured, or "sure thing," incentives and objective behavioral assessment in particular appear to moderate incentive effectiveness.

TL;DR: Findings suggest a short-term incentive ‘dose’ may promote sustained PA for interventions of short and long durations and after incentives were removed, though post-intervention ‘vote counting’ and pooled results did not align.

TL;DR: In 2000, titulares were more likely to use modern contraceptives than were women in the control group, although by 2003 all beneficiaries had the same probability of use, and Cox proportional hazard models produced estimates that birth spacing was similar between the beneficiaries and controls.
