Titration of Sedentary Behavior With Varying Physical Activity Levels Reduces Mortality in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
Authors' conclusion
In patients with type 2 diabetes, different combinations of various levels of PA and SB are associated with different degrees of risk for all-cause or cardiovascular mortality.
Study context
- Population
- Patients with T2D from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
- Exposure
- Combinations of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) levels
- Outcome
- All-cause and cardiovascular mortality
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
All-cause mortality
- Deaths during follow-up
- 1148 (18.94%)
- High SB (≥6 hours/day) associated with higher all-cause mortality, HR
- 1.65
- Low SB (<6 hours/day): low PA associated with lower all-cause mortality, HR
- 0.43
- High SB: all levels of PA associated with lower all-cause mortality
- P < .05
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Further findings
Cardiovascular mortality, high SB
- Only moderate PA associated with lower cardiovascular mortality, HR
- 0.30
