• Accelerometer-measured physical activity and sedentary time in a cohort of US adults followed for up to 13 years: The influence of removing early follow-up on associations with mortality 

      Tarp, Jakob; Hansen, Bjørge Herman; Fagerland, Morten; Steene-Johannessen, Jostein; Anderssen, Sigmund Alfred; Ekelund, Ulf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Background: Observational studies linking physical activity with mortality are susceptible to reverse causation bias from undiagnosed and prevalent diseases. Researchers often attempt to deal with reverse causation bias ...
