City planning and population health: a global challenge

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify eight integrated regional and local interventions that, when combined, encourage walking, cycling, and public transport use, while reducing private motor vehicle use, and recommend establishing a set of indicators to benchmark and monitor progress towards achievement of more compact cities that promote health and reduce health inequities.

A review of lifestyle factors that contribute to important pathways associated with major depression: Diet, sleep and exercise

TL;DR: Increased attention in future clinical studies on the influence of diet, sleep and exercise on major depressive disorder and investigations of their effect on physiological processes will help to expand the understanding and treatment of this disorder.

Sedentary behaviour and the risk of depression: a meta-analysis

TL;DR: This meta-analysis of observational studies indicates that sedentary behaviour is associated with increased risk of depression.

The PHQ-9: validity of a brief depression severity measure.

TL;DR: In addition to making criteria-based diagnoses of depressive disorders, the PHQ-9 is also a reliable and valid measure of depression severity, which makes it a useful clinical and research tool.

Physical activity in the United States measured by accelerometer.

TL;DR: Objective and subjective measures of physical activity give qualitatively similar results regarding gender and age patterns of activity, however, adherence to physical activity recommendations according to accelerometer-measured activity is substantially lower than according to self-report.

Internet paradox: A social technology that reduces social involvement and psychological well-being?

TL;DR: Greater use of the Internet was associated with declines in participants' communication with family members in the household, declines in the size of their social circle, and increases in their depression and loneliness.

Calibration of the Computer Science and Applications, Inc. accelerometer.

TL;DR: These data provide a template on which patterns of activity can be classified into intensity levels using the CSA accelerometer, and help to predict energy expenditure at any treadmill speed.

Amount of Time Spent in Sedentary Behaviors in the United States, 2003–2004

TL;DR: The authors evaluate participants from the 2003-2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey aged >/=6 years who wore an activity monitor for up to 7 days to provide the first objective measure of the amount of time spent in sedentary behavior in the US population.
