Summary: This study explores the dose-response relationship between moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and cardiometabolic health in adolescents, with significant non-linear relationships identified for BMI at inflection points around 90-150 minutes of objective physical activity. Notable differences were found by sex and type of physical activity measure, suggesting that closer adherence to adult guidelines of 150 weekly minutes of physical activity may be more feasible and health promoting for youth.

Summary: This study aimed to develop a regression equation to predict physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) using accelerometry. Children aged 11-13 years were recruited and randomly assigned to validation (n = 54) and cross-validation (n = 25) groups. The final prediction equation (PAEE = [0.001CPM] - 0.112) accounted for 70.6% of the variance and was found to be valid for use in Sri Lankan children.

Summary: This multinational study found that engaging in 3.1 to 6.0 hours of physical activity per week and expending 9.1 to 18.0 MET-hours of energy may reduce the risk of dementia among older adults.

Summary: This study found that the total physical activity of participants decreased over time, and early older adults who remained inactive were more likely to have lower health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Therefore, health education and promotion should be prioritized for middle-aged adults to increase their physical activity and improve HRQoL, maximizing the benefits of physical activity in old age.

Summary: Machine learning models were accurate in recognizing physical activity type and intensity, as well as estimating energy expenditure across different age groups. However, they performed less optimally in recognizing individual physical activities. XGBoost models had high F1-Scores for various activity types and intensities, with minimal differences across age groups.

Summary: The idea of increasing physical activity directly adding to total energy expenditure (TEE) in humans is challenged by the energy constrained hypothesis. Evidence supporting this hypothesis is limited due to various methodological issues, and future studies should address these limitations by using randomized controlled trials. The available evidence suggests that increasing physical activity mostly has an additive effect on TEE, although some energy remains unaccounted for, and the degree of energy balance may further moderate this effect.

Summary: This study investigated the dose-response relationship between device-measured physical activity (PA) and incident type 2 diabetes. The findings showed that compared to those with less than 150 minutes/week of moderate PA, individuals who engaged in 150-300 minutes, 300-600 minutes, and over 600 minutes per week had a 49%, 62%, and 71% lower risk of type 2 diabetes, respectively. Additionally, the study found that BMI mediated the association between moderate-to-vigorous PA and type 2 diabetes.

Summary: Physical activity during pregnancy can reduce the incidence of cesarean section, especially among obese individuals. The incidence of cesarean section is lowest among younger pregnant women compared to middle-aged and older pregnant women. The critical age for cesarean section risk is determined to be 31.7 years. The study also found that physical activity during pregnancy can prolong the gestational age.

Summary: This study conducted a meta-analysis to explore the dose-response relationship between leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) and the risk of depression. The results showed a nonlinear relationship between LTPA and the risk of depression, with moderate and low doses of LTPA being protective factors in preventing depression, while high doses of LTPA may increase the risk of depression.

Summary: High levels of total physical activity, leisure-time activity, vigorous activity, occupational activity, walking and bicycling combined, and cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with reduced risk of developing heart failure.

Summary: This study analyzed the dose-response relationship between leisure-time physical activity and biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress in overweight/obese populations. The results showed that leisure-time physical activity was negatively associated with inflammatory biomarkers in both overweight and obese populations, and positively associated with antioxidant markers in obese populations. Vigorous leisure-time physical activity was found to be more effective than moderate activity in regulating inflammation.

Summary: This study investigates the dose-response relationship between daily duration of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and improvement in cardiometabolic risk indicators (CMR) in obese children and adolescents. The results show a non-linear relationship between MVPA duration and improvement in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). When MVPA duration exceeded 77.1 minutes per day, further increases in duration led to greater decreases in LDL-C. Therefore, in order to achieve significant improvements in LDL-C, MVPA duration should be higher than 77.1 minutes per day.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of a scientific research device, BG2, which combines heart rate variability with an acceleration sensor, for estimating time spent in different intensity zones during free-living activities. The results showed that BG2 estimated physical activity more accurately than Bouchard, especially in moderate to vigorous physical activity. The findings suggest that BG2 is a valid and reliable tool for assessing activity levels in free-living conditions.

Summary: The study found significant differences in blood metabolites between normal weight and obese men after dietary intervention, particularly in amino acids and their derivatives. This suggests that challenging healthy individuals with increasing caloric doses may help identify fasting markers associated with obesity.
