We aimed to ... -
Fitness, fatness, and mortality in men and women from the UK biobank: Prospective cohort study
Tarp, Jakob; Grøntved, Anders; Sanchez-Lastra, Miguel A.; Dalene, Knut Eirik; Ding, Ding; Ekelund, Ulf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Cardiorespiratory fitness may moderate the association between obesity and all‐cause mortality (ie, the “fat‐but‐fit” hypothesis), but unaddressed sources of bias are a concern. Methods and Results: ... -
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 ... -

Martinez-Gomez, David; Cabanas-Sanchez, Veronica; Yu, Tsung; Rodriguez-Artalejo, Fernando; Ding, Ding; Lee, I-Min; Ekelund, Ulf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Objectives: We aimed to investigate the dose–response associations of long-term leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) obtained from repeated measures with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality outcomes in ... -
Physical activity and mortality across levels of adiposity: A prospective cohort study from the UK biobank
Sanchez-Lastra, Miguel A.; Ding, Ding; Dalene, Knut Eirik; Ekelund, Ulf; Tarp, Jakob (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective: To examine the combined and stratified associations of physical activity and adiposity measures, modelled as body mass index (BMI), abdominal adiposity (waist circumference), and body fat percentage (BF) with ... -
Physical activity behaviours in adolescence: current evidence and opportunities for intervention
van Sluijs, Esther M.F.; Ekelund, Ulf; Crochemore-Silva, Inacio; Guthold, Regina; Ha, Amy; Lubans, David; Oyeyemi, Adewale L.; Ding, Ding; Katzmarzyk, Peter T.
