• Does physical activity attenuate, or even eliminate, the detrimental association of sitting time with mortality? A harmonised meta-analysis of data from more than 1 million men and women 

      Ekelund, Ulf; Steene-Johannessen, Jostein; Brown, Wendy J.; Fagerland, Morten Wang; Owen, Neville; Powell, Kenneth E.; Bauman, Adrian; Lee, I-Min (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-09)
      Background: High amounts of sedentary behaviour have been associated with increased risks of several chronic conditions and mortality. However, it is unclear whether physical activity attenuates or even eliminates the ...
    • Is the time right for quantitative public health guidelines on sitting? A narrative review of sedentary behaviour research paradigms and findings 

      Stamatakis, Emmanuel; Ekelund, Ulf; Ding, Ding; Hamer, Mark; Bauman, Adrian; Lee, I-Min (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Sedentary behaviour (SB) has been proposed as an ‘independent’ risk factor for chronic disease risk, attracting much research and media attention. Many countries have included generic, non-quantitative reductions in SB in ...

      Sallis, James F.; Bowles, Heather R.; Bauman, Adrian; Ainsworth, Barbara E.; Bull, Fiona C.; Craig, Cora L.; Sjöström, Michael; de Bourdeaudhuij, Ilse; Lefevre, Johan; Matsudo, Victor; Matsudo, Sandra; Macfarlane, Duncan J.; Gomez, Luis Fernando; Inoue, Shigeru; Murase, Norio; Volbekiene, Vida; McLean, Grant; Carr, Harriette; Klasson-Heggebø, Lena; Tomten, Heidi; Bergman, Patrick (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-06)
      Background: Understanding environmental correlates of physical activity can inform policy changes. Surveys were conducted in 11 countries using the same self-report environmental variables and the International Physical ...
    • Sitting Time, Physical Activity, and Risk of Mortality in Adults 

      Stamatakis, Emmanuel; Gale, Joanne; Bauman, Adrian; Ekelund, Ulf; Hamer, Mark; Ding, Ding (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Background: It is unclear what level of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) offsets the health risks of sitting. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the joint and stratified associations ...
    • Sport and exercise as contributors to the health of nations 

      Khan, Karim M.; Thompson, Angela M.; Blair, Steven N.; Sallis, James F.; Powell, Kenneth E.; Bull, Fiona C.; Bauman, Adrian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-07-07)
      Self-reported rates of participation in sport vary by country. In the UK, about 40% of men and women aged 16 years or older participate in at least one sport every week. Although few data exist to assess ...
