The cross-sectional associations between objectively measured sedentary time and cardiometabolic health markers in adults – a systematic review with meta-analysis component.
Powell, Cormac; Herring, Matthew P.; Dowd, Kieran P.; Donnelly, Alan E. (Wiley, 2018)Sedentary time is viewed as an independent risk factor for adverse cardiometabolic health (CMH). No systematic review and meta-analysis on the cross-sectional asso-ciations between objectively measured sedentary time and ... -
How are different clusters of physical activity, sedentary, sleep, smoking, alcohol, and dietary behaviors associated with cardiometabolic health in older adults? A cross-sectional latent class analysis
Verswijveren, Simone J.J.M.; Single, Sara; Donnelly, Alan E.; Dowd, Kieran P.; Ridgers, Nicola D.; Carson, Brian P.; Kearney, Patricia M.; Harrington, Janas M.; Chappel, Stephanie; Powell, Cormac (BMC, 2023-08-01)Background Studies to date that investigate combined impacts of health behaviors, have rarely examined device-based movement behaviors alongside other health behaviors, such as smoking, alcohol, and sleep, on cardiometabolic ... -
The influence of different physical activity behaviours on the gut microbiota of older Irish adults
Zhong, Xiaozhong; Powell, Cormac; Phillips, Catherine M.; Millar, Seán; Carson, Brian P.; Dowd, Kieran P.; Perry, Ivan J.; Kearney, Patricia M.; Harrington, Janas M.; O'Toole, Paul W.; Donnelly, Alan E. (Springer, 2021-04-10)Objectives: A 24-hour day is made up of time spent in a range of physical activity (PA) behaviours, including sleep, sedentary time, standing, light-intensity PA (LIPA) and moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA), all of which may ... -
The influence of sitting, standing and stepping bouts on cardiometabolic health markers in older adults
Verswijveren, Simone J. J.; Powell, Cormac; Chappel, Stephanie E,; Ridgers, Nicola D.; Carson, Brian P.; Dowd, Kieran P.; Perry, Ivan J.; Kearney, Patricia M.; Harrington, Janas M.; Donnelly, Alan E. (Human Kinetics, 2021-05-13)Aside from total time spent in physical activity behaviors, how time is accumulated is important for health. This study examined associations between sitting, standing, and stepping bouts, with cardiometabolic health markers ... -
Simultaneous validation of five activity monitors for use in adult populations.
Powell, Cormac; Carson, Brian P.; Dowd, Kieran P.; Donnelly, Alan E. (Wiley, 2017-12)Numerous cut-points exist to measure physical activity by accelerometry. The ability to compare accelerometer findings from different devices from different locations may be advantageous to researchers. This study aimed ...
