Temporal Patterning Integrating Diet and Physical Activity Shows Stronger Links to Health Indicators Compared to Patterning of Either Diet or Physical Activity Alone

摘要

Daily temporal patterns of energy intake (temporal dietary patterns, TDPs) and physical activity (temporal PA patterns, TPAPs) have been independently and jointly (joint temporal dietary and PA patterns, TDPAPs) associated with health indicators. The strength of the association between clusters of each pattern and health indicators including body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), hemoglobin A1c (A1c), triglyceride (TAG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), total cholesterol (Total-C), blood pressure, type 2 diabetes (T2D), metabolic syndrome (MetS), and obesity, were compared.
