Circadian rhythm parameters and physical activity associated with cardiometabolic risk factors in the PREVIEW lifestyle study

Obesity (Silver Spring)Published Post hoc analysis of the PREVIEW lifestyle study

Authors' conclusion

In adults with obesity and prediabetes, parameters indicating a robust circadian rhythm were, independently of PA, associated with lower cardiometabolic risk and CRP. Only in free-living conditions, PA mediated the association of higher circadian stability with lower SBP.

Study context

  • Sedentaryn = 38
Methodological detailsfactor analyses followed by Pearson correlations
  • Factor analyses followed by Pearson correlations

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

after 3 years of weight loss maintenance
Cardiometabolic risk factor values similar between conditions; circadian rhythm parameters and physical activity (PA) differed significantly
p < 0.05
