24-hour movement behaviours and cardiometabolic health in adults with type 2 diabetes: a comparative cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Meeting the recommended guidelines for physical activity (PA), sedentary behaviour (SB) and sleep, collectively referred to as 24-hour movement behaviours (24h-MBs), is crucial for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) management and is associated with favourable health outcomes. However, it is suggested that adults with T2DM spend more time in SB and less time in PA compared with adults without diabetes.

Objectives

This study aims to compare 24h-MBs between adults with and without T2DM (ie, controls with similar characteristics except for having T2DM), investigate how this is associated with cardiometabolic health, and assess changes in 24h-MBs after two years of follow-up (FU) in adults with T2DM.

Design

Cross-sectional and longitudinal study.
