Time reallocation to moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and its association with chronic kidney disease prevalence in Chinese adults with type 2 diabetes
Authors' conclusion
This study revealed that replacing sleep or sedentary time with MVPA was associated with a lower prevalence of CKD among Chinese adults with T2DM, especially those with low MVPA. Incorporating MVPA into daily routines is potentially beneficial for improving renal health in people with T2DM.
Study context
- Population
- Chinese adults with T2D, National Metabolic Management Centre Ningbo Branch
- Participants
- 5,421 adults
- Exposure
- Reallocating 30 min/day from other behaviours to moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA)
- Outcome
- CKD prevalence
Methodological detailsisotemporal substitution models
- Isotemporal substitution models
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Substituting 30 min/day of sleeping with MVPA, OR
0.87
Substituting 30 min/day of sitting with MVPA, OR
0.90
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Further findings
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in individuals with inadequate MVPA (<150 min/week)
- Replacing 30 min of sleeping, sitting or low-intensity physical activity with MVPA: CKD risk reduction
- more than 60%
Stratified analysis among participants with inadequate MVPA
- Association of reallocating time to MVPA with lower CKD prevalence predominantly in men, those with sleep >7.5 h/day and those with HbA1c <7%
