The 24-hour activity cycle (24-HAC) includes physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep. The 24-HAC composition and brain health relationship in adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) remains underexplored. We examined associations between 24-HAC composition and gray matter (GM) volume.
Cross-sectional study in 110 adults with MCI. Actigraphy assessed 24-HAC behaviors. FreeSurfer quantified GM. Compositional linear regressions and isotemporal substitution determined 24-HAC composition and GM volume associations.
Higher moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) relative to remaining behaviors was associated with greater right inferior temporal gyrus volume (ß = 0.30, false-discovery rate (FDR)-corrected-p = 0.030). Higher SB relative to remaining behaviors was associated with lower volume in the same region (ß = -0.45, FDR-corrected-p = 0.015). Reallocating 30 min from SB to MVPA predicted 2.1% greater (ß = 0.06, p < 0.001) and from MVPA to SB predicted 2.8% lower volume (ß = -0.08, p < 0.001).
Increasing MVPA at the expense of SB may protect GM in regions prone to Alzheimer's disease-related atrophy.

The 24-hour behaviors are associated to inferior temporal volume in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). More moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) is linked with greater inferior temporal volume in older adults with MCI. Allocation from sedentary time to MVPA predicts greater inferior temporal volume.
24小时活动周期(24-HAC)包括身体活动(PA)、久坐行为(SB)和睡眠。轻度认知障碍(MCI)成年人的24-HAC组成与脑健康之间的关系仍未得到充分研究。我们研究了24-HAC组成与灰质(GM)体积之间的关联。
对110名MCI成年人进行横断面研究。活动记录仪评估24-HAC行为。FreeSurfer软件对GM进行量化。成分线性回归和等时替代法确定24-HAC组成与GM体积的关联。
相对于其他行为,较高的中度至剧烈身体活动(MVPA)与右侧颞下回体积增大相关(β = 0.30,错误发现率(FDR)校正后p = 0.030)。相对于其他行为,较高的SB与同一区域的体积减小相关(β = -0.45,FDR校正后p = 0.015)。将30分钟的SB重新分配为MVPA可使体积增加2.1%(β = 0.06,p < 0.001),而将30分钟的MVPA重新分配为SB可使体积减少2.8%(β = -0.08,p < 0.001)。
以减少SB为代价增加MVPA可能会保护易发生阿尔茨海默病相关萎缩区域的GM。

24小时行为与轻度认知障碍(MCI)老年人的颞下体积相关。在患有MCI的老年人中,更多的中度至剧烈身体活动(MVPA)与更大的颞下体积相关。从久坐时间分配为MVPA可预测更大的颞下体积。
