Importance Because shopping malls are considered safe places for walking, several mall walking programs have been developed. Research on the association between use of and number daily steps taken is limited. Objective To evaluate a smartphone-based program after COVID-19 pandemic. Design, Setting, Participants This cohort study evaluated nationwide longitudinal data set 217 344 registered smartphone app users at least 18 years age residing in Japan.

Importance Guidelines recommend 150 minutes or more of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) per week for overall health benefit, but the relative effects concentrated vs evenly distributed are unclear. Objective To examine associations between an accelerometer-derived “weekend warrior” pattern (ie, most MVPA achieved over 1-2 days) spread with risk incident cardiovascular events. Design, Setting, and Participants Retrospective analysis UK Biobank cohort study participants providing a full accelerometer-based data June 8, 2013, December 30, 2015. Exposures Three patterns were compared: active weekend warrior (active WW, ≥150 ≥50% total in days), regular (≥150 not meeting WW status), inactive (<150 minutes). The same assessed using sample median threshold 230.4 week.

Objectives This study explored how race and socioeconomic status (SES) moderated the association between moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) depressive symptoms with compositional data. Methods Participants were 2803 US adults from 2005–2006 cycle of National Health Nutrition Examination Survey. Accelerometers used to measure MVPA, light-intensity (LPA) sedentary behaviours (SB). self-reported sleep duration symptoms. SES was derived by latent class analysis using household income level, education attainment occupation. The relative time MVPA moderating effects investigated through data analysis. Isotemporal substitution employed estimate reallocation other movement Results Increased spent in LPA, SB inversely associated (OR (95% CI)=0.679 (0.538–0.855)). significantly interacted for (P interaction <0.05). Reallocating 10–30 min sleep, or LPA lower odds solely among non-Hispanic white individuals those higher SES. Conclusion reveal a reverse Our results provide evidence moderate relationship Future research is needed further explore these racial differences.

Over recent decades, wearable inertial sensors have become popular means to quantify physical activity and mobility. However, research assessing measurement accuracy precision is required, especially before using device-based measures as outcomes in trials. The GT9X Link a monitor available from ActiGraph, recognized “gold standard” previously used criterion measure assess the validity of various consumer-based monitors. ActiGraph not fully elucidated. A systematic review was undertaken synthesize current evidence for measuring steps energy expenditure. This followed PRISMA guidelines eight studies were included with combined sample size 558 participants. We found that (1) generally underestimates steps; (2) device seem be influenced by gait speed, placement, filtering process, monitoring conditions; (3) there lack regarding step counting free-living conditions expenditure estimation. Given limited number their heterogeneity, present emphasizes need further validation populations both controlled settings.

Background Despite the growing attention towards efficacy of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on older adult health, a consensus regarding pleiotropic effects HIIT in this population is yet to be reached. Previous studies have predominantly focused specific outcomes or particular groups, lacking comprehensive analysis. Objective We aimed conduct systematic evaluation impact body composition, cardiopulmonary function, and metabolic parameters adults. Methods The databases searched included PubMed, Web Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, WanFang, other relevant sources from inception database until July 2023. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) shape, were searched. Results A total 87 RCTs meeting criteria included, involving 4,213 people. Meta-analysis results showed that significantly improved fat percentage (BF%) [MD: −1.63%, p = 0.005], maximal oxygen uptake (VO 2max ) 2.46 mL min −1 kg , &lt; 0.00001], heart rate (HR max 2.83 beats 0.02], high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels 0.04 mmol L 0.002]. However, for systolic blood pressure (SBP) 0.49 mmHg, 0.60], resting rest −0.95 BPM 0.24], triglycerides (TG) [tendency MD: −0.02 0.61], low-density (LDL) −0.04 0.27] had no significant effect.
