Longitudinal associations of physical activity with inflammatory markers in US adults with and without type 1 diabetes

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished Longitudinal cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Our findings highlight that meeting ≥ 150 mins/week of MVPA is inversely associated with inflammatory markers linked with increased CVD risk.
