Sitting time and chronic conditions in mid-aged women

Synopsis

Sitting-time is emerging as a modifiable risk factor for mortality and chronic disease. In particular, there is limited research on the association between sitting-time and diabetes in mid-aged women, while assessing the effect of physical activity. The aim of this study is to assess the longitudinal association between sitting-time and diabetes in mid-aged women, and assess the role physical activity plays in the association.
