Sedentary behavior pattern

Sedentary behavior pattern has been studied in 3 papers since 2022: 3 observational studies in people. The newest paper, May 1, 2024: “Cross-sectional associations between temporal patterns and composition of upright and stepping events with physical function in midlife: Insights from the 1970 British Cohort Study”.

None of its findings points the other way.

C, W, M, H: cells, worms or flies, mice, humans. Dark: independent labs found the same change there. Light: one lab or one study. Outline: nothing yet.

Labs are independent when their papers share no last author and no institution.

What is Sedentary behavior pattern linked with?

3

Studies link Sedentary behavior pattern with 3 measures, most often grip strength (1 study), muscle size and architecture (1) and physical function (1).

Grip strength

downin humans1

1 study

  1. Sedentary behavior pattern is associated with grip strength in humans.

Muscle size and architecture

mixedin humans1

1 study

  1. Sedentary behavior pattern is associated with muscle size and architecture in humans (R2adj 0.156-0.564).

    “The pattern, rather than accumulated daily SB time, was associated with the size and architecture of the GM.”

    Sedentary behaviour (especially accumulation pattern) has an independent negative impact on skeletal muscle size and architecture in community-dwelling older adults

Physical function

mixedin humans1

1 study

  1. Sedentary behavior pattern is associated with physical function in humans (pattern, but not volume).

    “Spearman bivariate correlations indicated that pattern, but not volume, of sedentary behavior was associated with physical function in young, middle-aged, and older adults”
