  4. Sedentary behavior and obesity in a large cohort of children.
    Jonathan A Mitchell, Calum Mattocks, Andy R Ness, Sam D Leary, Russell R Pate, Marsha Dowda, et al. in Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) (2009)
    The purpose of this study was to examine the association between sedentary behavior and obesity among 12-year-old children, while adjusting for moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and other potential confounding variables. Cross-sectional…

  5. Tracking of sedentary behaviors of young people: A systematic review.
    Stuart J H Biddle, Natalie Pearson, Gemma M Ross, Rock Braithwaite in Preventive medicine (2010)
    OBJECTIVE: To review the empirical evidence concerning the strength of tracking of sedentary behaviors from childhood and adolescence. METHODS: Published English language studies were located from computerised and manual searches in 2009. Included…

  6. Co-varying patterns of physical activity and sedentary behaviors and their long-term maintenance among adolescents.
    Jihong Liu, Jinseok Kim, Natalie Colabianchi, Andrew Ortaglia, Russell R Pate in Journal of physical activity & health (2010)
    BACKGROUND: We examined the covarying patterns of physical activity and sedentary behaviors among adolescents and their long-term maintenance. METHODS: Data came from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (1995-2002). We used latent…

  7. Correlates of objectively measured physical activity and sedentary behaviour in English children.
    Angela C King, Kathryn N Parkinson, Ashley J Adamson, Lilian Murray, Herve Besson, John J Reilly, in European journal of public health (2010)
    BACKGROUND: Evidence on the correlates of objectively measured physical activity and sedentary behaviour in childhood is limited. This study aimed to identify correlates of physical activity and sedentary behaviour among 7-year-old children in…

  8. Leisure Time Spent Sitting in Relation to Total Mortality in a Prospective Cohort of US Adults
    A. V. Patel, L. Bernstein, A. Deka, H. S. Feigelson, P. T. Campbell, S. M. Gapstur, et al. in American Journal of Epidemiology (2010)
    The obesity epidemic is attributed in part to reduced physical activity. Evidence supports that reducing time spent sitting, regardless of activity, may improve the metabolic consequences of obesity. Analyses were conducted in a large prospective…

  9. Disease prevention-should we target obesity or sedentary lifestyle?
    Olivier L Charansonney, Jean-Pierre Després in Nature reviews. Cardiology (2010)
    Obesity is a major health challenge facing the modern world. Some evidence points to obesity itself as the main driver of premature mortality. We propose that this view is oversimplified. For example, high levels of physical activity and…

  11. Patterns in sedentary and exercise behaviors and associations with overweight in 9-14-year-old boys and girls--a cross-sectional study.
    Saskia J te Velde, Ilse De Bourdeaudhuij, Inga Thorsdottir, Mette Rasmussen, Maria Hagströmer, Knut-Inge Klepp, in BMC public health (2007)
    BACKGROUND: Before starting interventions addressing energy-balance related behaviors, knowledge is needed about the prevalence of sedentary behaviors and low physical exercise, their interrelationships, possible gender differences. Therefore this…

  13. Muscle Mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation Activity, But Not Content, Is Altered with Abdominal Obesity in Sedentary Men: Synergism with Changes in Insulin Sensitivity.
    Emilie Chanseaume, Valentin Barquissau, Jérôme Salles, Julien Aucouturier, Véronique Patrac, Christophe Giraudet, et al. in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism (2010)
    Context: Abdominal obesity is a major risk factor for muscle insulin resistance. Mitochondria may play a key role in this etiology. Objective: Changes in muscle mitochondrial content and function were examined according to abdominal obesity and…

  16. An objective method for measurement of sedentary behavior in 3- to 4-year olds.
    John J Reilly, Jennifer Coyle, Louise Kelly, Genevieve Burke, Stanley Grant, James Y Paton in Obesity research (2003)
    OBJECTIVE: To test the ability of accelerometry to quantify sedentary behavior in 3- to 4-year-old children. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: We developed a cut-off for accelerometry output (validation study) in 30 healthy 3 to 4 year olds, which…

  18. Parent-child attitude congruence on type and intensity of physical activity: testing multiple mediators of sedentary behavior in older children.
    Cheryl B Anderson, Sheryl O Hughes, Bernard F Fuemmeler in Health psychology : official journal of the Division of Health Psychology, American Psychological Association (2009)
    OBJECTIVE: This study examined parent-child attitudes on value of specific types and intensities of physical activity, which may explain gender differences in child activity, and evaluated physical activity as a mechanism to reduce time spent in…

  19. Associations between sedentary behavior and blood pressure in young children.
    David Martinez-Gomez, Jared Tucker, Kate a Heelan, Gregory J Welk, Joey C Eisenmann in Archives of pediatrics & adolescent medicine (2009)
    OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of sedentary behavior on blood pressure (BP) in young children using different indicators of sedentariness. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: A rural Midwestern US community. PARTICIPANTS: Children aged 3 to 8…
