Accelerometers provide detailed data about physical activity (PA) across the full intensity spectrum. However, when examining associations with health, results are often aggregated to only a few summary measures [e.g. time spent "sedentary" or "moderate-to-vigorous" intensity PA]. Using multivariate pattern analysis, which can handle collinear exposure variables, we examined associations between the full PA intensity spectrum and cardiometabolic risk (CMR) in a population-based sample of middle-aged to older adults. Participants (n = 3660; mean ± SD age = 69 ± 8y and BMI = 26.7 ± 4.2 kg/m; 55% female) from the EPIC-Norfolk study (UK) with valid accelerometry (ActiGraph-GT1M) data were included. We used multivariate pattern analysis with partial least squares regression to examine cross-sectional multivariate associations (r) across the full PA intensity spectrum [minutes/day at 0-5000 counts-per-minute (cpm); 5 s epoch] with a continuous CMR score (reflecting waist, blood pressure, lipid, and glucose metabolism). Models were sex-stratified and adjusted for potential confounders. There was a positive (detrimental) association between PA and CMR at 0-12 cpm (maximally-adjusted r = 0.08 (95%CI 0.06-0.10). PA was negatively (favourably) associated with CMR at all intensities above 13 cpm ranging between r = -0.09 (0.07-0.12) at 800-999 cpm and r = -0.14 (0.11-0.16) at 75-99 and 4000-4999 cpm. The strongest favourable associations were from 50 to 800 cpm (r = 0.10-0.12) in men, but from ≥2500 cpm (r = 0.18-0.20) in women; with higher proportions of model explained variance for women (R = 7.4% vs. 2.3%). Most of the PA intensity spectrum was beneficially associated with CMR in middle-aged to older adults, even at intensities lower than what has traditionally been considered "sedentary" or "light-intensity" activity. This supports encouragement of PA at almost any intensity in this age-group.
加速度计可提供整个运动强度范围内的详细体力活动 (PA) 数据。然而,在研究与健康的关系时,结果通常汇总为少数几个综合指标[例如,“久坐”或“中等至剧烈强度”体力活动所花费的时间]。我们使用多元模式分析,该分析可以处理共线性暴露变量,在一项基于人群的中年至老年成年人样本中,研究了整个 PA 强度范围与心血管代谢风险 (CMR) 的关联。参与者 (n = 3660; 平均 ± 标准差年龄为 69 ± 8 岁,BMI 为 26.7 ± 4.2 kg/m; 55%为女性) 来自英国 EPIC-Norfolk 研究,有有效的加速度计 (ActiGraph-GT1M) 数据。我们使用多元模式分析和偏最小二乘回归来检查整个 PA 强度范围[每分钟 0-5000 计数/分钟 (cpm); 5 秒区间]与连续 CMR 分数(反映腰围、血压、血脂和血糖代谢)之间的横断面多元关联 (r)。模型按性别分层,并调整了潜在的混杂因素。PA 与 0-12 cpm 之间存在正相关(有害) (调整后最大 r = 0.08 (95%CI 0.06-0.10)。PA 与 13 cpm 以上的所有强度呈负相关(有利),范围在 800-999 cpm 时 r = -0.09 (0.07-0.12),在 75-99 和 4000-4999 cpm 时 r = -0.14 (0.11-0.16)。在男性中,最强的有利关联来自 50 到 800 cpm (r = 0.10-0.12),而在女性中则来自 2500 cpm 以上(r = 0.18-0.20);女性模型解释的方差比例更高(R = 7.4%比 2.3%)。在中年至老年成年人中,PA 强度范围的大部分与 CMR 呈正相关,即使在传统上被认为是“久坐”或“低强度”活动的强度下也是如此。这支持在该年龄段鼓励几乎任何强度的 PA。
