Self-reported total sitting time on a non-working day is associated with blunted flow-mediated vasodilation and blunted nitroglycerine-induced vasodilation.

ABSTRACT: We divided the 466 subjects into two groups based on information on sitting time on a non-working day and evaluated flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) and nitroglycerine-induced vasodilation (NID). FMD was smaller in subjects with sitting time on a non-working day of ≥6 h/day than in subjects with sitting time on a non-working day of <6 h/day (2.5 ± 2.6% vs. 3.7 ± 2.9%; p < 0.001). NID was smaller in subjects with sitting time at non-working day of ≥ 8 h/day than in subjects with sitting time on a non-working day of < 8 h/day (10.1 ± 5.6% vs. 11.5 ± 5.0%; p = 0.01). After adjustment for confounding factors for vascular function, the odds of having the lowest tertile of FMD was significantly higher in subjects with sitting time on a non-working day of ≥6 h/day than in subjects with sitting time on a non-working day of <6 h/day. The odds of having the lowest tertile of NID was significant higher in subjects with sitting time on a non-working day of ≥ 8 h/day than in subjects with sitting time on a non-working day of < 8 h/day. These findings suggest that prolonged sitting time on a non-working day is associated with blunted FMD and blunted NID.

Project description:First-degree atrioventricular block (AVB) is a common electrocardiogram finding in clinical practice. Vascular dysfunction is associated with cardiovascular disease and events. There is no information on the association of AVB with vascular function. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the associations of PR interval with vascular function assessed in well-characterized subjects. A total of 2220 subjects were enrolled in this study. We evaluated endothelium-dependent vasodilatation assessed by flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) and endothelium-independent vasodilatation assessed by nitroglycerine-induced vasodilation (NID) in 106 subjects with first-degree AVB (70 men; mean age, 64.3 ± 12.9 years) and 1241 subjects with normal PR interval (531 men; mean age, 56.1 ± 13.9 years). Subjects with first-degree AVB had a lower FMD value than that in subjects with normal PR interval (3.5 ± 2.4% vs. 4.9 ± 3.3%, P < 0.001). FMD was significantly lower in subjects with first-degree AVB than in subjects with normal PR interval even after adjustment of confounding factors for assessment of endothelium-dependent vasodilatation (OR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.11-2.70; P = 0.015). Although NID was significantly lower in subjects with first-degree AVB than in subjects with normal PR interval (11.1 ± 6.0% vs. 13.6 ± 6.1%, P < 0.001), there was no significant difference in NID between the two groups in multivariate analysis (OR: 1.48, 95% CI: 0.91-2.41; P = 0.117). Both endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent vasodilation in the brachial artery are impaired in parallel with the prolongation of atrioventricular conduction. After adjustments of confounding factors for vascular function, first-degree AVB is associated with impaired endothelium-dependent vasodilatation but not with impaired endothelium-independent vasodilatation. From the aspect of vascular function, it is unlikely that first-degree AVB is an electrocardiography abnormality with a good prognosis.

Project description:ObjectiveSedentary behaviour is increasingly recognized as an important health risk, but comparable data across Europe are scarce. The objective of this study was to explore the prevalence and correlates of self-reported sitting time in adults across and within the 28 European Union Member States.MethodsThis study reports data from the Special Eurobarometer 412. In 2013, 27,919 randomly selected Europeans (approximately 1000 per Member State) were interviewed face-to-face. Sitting time on a usual day was self-reported and dichotomised into sitting less- and more than 7.5 hours per day. Uni- and multivariate odds ratios of sitting more than 7.5 hours per day were assessed by country and socio-demographic variables using binary logistic regression analyses. The analyses were stratified by country to study the socio-demographic correlates of sitting time within the different countries.ResultsA total of 26,617 respondents were included in the analyses. Median sitting time was five hours per day. Across Europe, 18.5 percent of the respondents reported to sit more than 7.5 hours per day, with substantial variation between countries (ranging from 8.9 to 32.1 percent). In general, northern European countries reported more sitting than countries in the south of Europe. 'Current occupation' and 'age when stopped education' were found to be the strongest correlates of sitting time, both across Europe and within most Member States. Compared to manual workers, the odds ratio of sitting more than 7.5 hours per day was 5.00 for people with white collar occupations, 3.84 for students, and 3.65 for managers.ConclusionsThere is substantial variation in self-reported sitting time among European adults across countries as well as socio-demographic groups. While regular surveillance of (objectively measured) sedentary behaviour is needed, the results of this study provide entry points for developing targeted interventions aimed at highly sedentary populations, such as people with sedentary occupations.

Project description:BackgroundThis study explores trends in the prevalence of high sitting time and its correlates among "high sitting" and "high sitting-least active" European adults from 2002 to 2017. Both groups have merit for future public health interventions to prevent development of a range of prevalent non-communicable diseases.MethodsData collected in the 2002 (15 countries), 2005 (30 countries), 2013 (28 countries) and 2017 (28 countries) Eurobarometer surveys were used, including around 15,000 respondents in 2002 and >26,000 respondents in the other years. Sitting time and moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity were measured with the validated International Physical Activity Questionnaire-short. High sitting was defined as >7.5 hours per day. Respondents in the lowest quartile of total reported days of physical activity (i.e. days walking, days in moderate activity, and days in vigorous activity) were defined as least active. Multivariate odds ratios of high sitting, and high sitting-least active were assessed by country and socio-demographic characteristics for each survey year using binary logistic regression analyses.ResultsTrends in sitting time were relatively stable over a 15-year period, although this time trend was limited by a change in the sitting question between 2005 and 2013. Men, higher educated people, students, retired people, white collar workers, people living in urban areas, people with lower physical activity levels, and people living in the Czech Republic, Denmark or the Netherlands were consistently more likely to be in the high sitting group across all four survey years. Similarly, men, students, retired people, unemployed people, white collar workers, and people living in the Czech Republic or Denmark were consistently more likely to be in the high sitting-least active group across all four surveys.ConclusionThis study identified population sub-groups that need special attention in public health interventions to lower total sitting time.
