      Objective methods to measure physical activity (PA) have become available and widely used given the high degree of precision to evaluate PA. However, few studies have used accelerometers to measure PA during pregnancy, ...
    • Daily steps and all-cause mortality: A meta-analysis of 15 international cohorts 

      Ekelund, Ulf; Lee, I-Min; Rees-Punia, Erika; Dallmeier, Dhayana; Klenk, Jochen; Carnethon, Mercedes R.; Evenson, Kelly R.; Galuska, Deborah A.; Jefferis, Barbara J.; Kraus, William E.; Matthews, Charles E.; Omura, John D.; Patel, Alpa V.; Pieper, Carl F.; Whincup, Peter H.; Dooley, Erin E.; Fulton, Janet E.; Paluch, Amanda E.; Bajpai, Shivangi; Bassett, David R. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Background: Although 10 000 steps per day is widely promoted to have health benefits, there is little evidence to support this recommendation. We aimed to determine the association between number of steps per day and ...

      Paluch, Amanda E.; Bajpai, Shivangi; Ballin, Marcel; Bassett, David R.; Buford, Thomas W.; Carnethon, Mercedes R.; Chernofsky, Ariel; Dooley, Erin E.; Ekelund, Ulf; Evenson, Kelly R.; Galuska, Deborah A.; Jefferis, Barbara J.; Kong, Lingsong; Kraus, William E.; Larson, Martin G.; Lee, I-Min; Matthews, Charles E.; Newton, Robert L.; Nordström, Anna Hava; Nordström, Peter; Palta, Priya; Patel, Alpa V.; Pettee Gabriel, Kelley; Pieper, Carl F.; Pompeii, Lisa; Rees-Punia, Erika; Spartano, Nicole L.; Vasan, Ramachandran S.; Whincup, Peter H.; Yang, Shengping; Fulton, Janet E. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Background: Taking fewer than the widely promoted “10 000 steps per day” has recently been associated with lower risk of all-cause mortality. The relationship of steps and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk remains poorly ...
