Sedentary behaviours are thus distinct from lack of physical activity, although the latter is sometimes mistakenly used as a marker of sedentary behaviour in the literature [3]. Epidemiological studies have shown that in the general adult population, around 55 to 60% of time awake is spent in ...
Sedentary behavior is defined as sitting or reclining with low energy expenditure (Sedentary Behaviour Research Network, 2012), and the detrimental consequences of sedentary behavior are largely independent of the robust benefit physical activity has on chronic health disease risk (Owen, Healy, Matthews...

Sedentary behaviour is ubiquitous in modern society. Emerging studies have focused on the health consequences of sedentary behaviour, including colorectal cancer, but whether sedentary behaviour is associated with the risks of colon and rectal cancer rem
The impact of bronchiectasis on sedentary behaviour and physical activity is unknown. It is important to explore this to identify the need for physical activity interventions and how to tailor interventions to this patient population. We aimed to explore the patterns and correlates of sedentary behavio...
