A Scoping Review of Acute Sedentary Behaviour Studies of People with Spinal Cord Injury.

ABSTRACT: People with a spinal cord injury (SCI) report less physical activity than other populations and may engage in more sedentary behaviour (SB), especially sitting time. SB negatively impacts physiological and psychosocial outcomes in the general population, yet minimal research has explored the effects in people with SCI. The goal of this scoping review was to catalogue and describe the effects of acute SB among people with SCI. We searched four databases before February 2024 for studies in which people with any SCI sat, laid, or reclined for more than one hour in a day, and any physiological, psychological, or behavioural (i.e., SB time) outcome was measured. In total, 2021 abstracts were screened, and eight studies were included (n = 172 participants). The studies were characterized
