Description
Summary:Purpose To investigate the associations among objectively measured sedentary behavior, light physical activity, and markers of cardiometabolic health in young women. Methods Cardiovascular disease risk factors, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), lipid accumulation product, and inflammatory markers were measured in 50 young, adult women. Accelerometers were worn over 7 days to assess sedentary time (
