Sitting accumulation patterns.
Number of bouts (y axis), usual bout duration (x axis) and the amount of sitting time accumulated (contour lines). Each point represents one participant.
Table 2.
Associations and all potential covariates, of sitting and prolonged sitting time, and sitting accumulation with measures of adiposity and lipid metabolism in Australian adults aged 36 to 80 (AusDiab 2011–12; n = 678).
Table 3.
Associations of sitting and prolonged sitting time, and sitting accumulation with measures of blood pressure and glucose control in Australian adults aged 36 to 80 (AusDiab 2011–12; n = 678a).
Fig 2.
Cross-sectional associations of each hour of daily sitting time with (a) HDL-cholesterol, (b) triglycerides, and (c) PLG glucose by how long at a time the sitting was usually accumulated.
Solid lines indicate the estimated association between total sitting time and each biomarker with the dashed lines indicating 95% confidence intervals.
