Sitting for more than an hour is associated with a 9% higher risk of cancer death.
Recently, there have been a number of recent developments in the field of international medical health that continue to attract the attention of the industry and the public. Long periods of sitting and not getting up may pose a higher health risk than the cumulative amount of sitting time in a single day. A new study found that the more an hour of continuous sitting time was added, the greater the association between the 9% risk of dying from cancer.
The study was led by Dr. Frederick Ho of the University of Glasgow, UK, and published in the open-access medical journal PLOS Medicine, in collaboration with colleagues. Previous studies have linked more sedentary activity (including sitting, lying back, lying down) while awake to worse health outcomes.
However, most guidelines currently focus on the extent to which people sit at all times. New research finds that sedentary time patterns may also be important. By tracking more than 91,292 adults, they monitored the data for 7 days, followed by a team of researchers who tracked the group's subjects' activities over the longest 12.
38 years. The researchers divided the activities into several categories. Persistent inactivity is defined as lasting at least 30 minutes, with at least 90% of the time spent in inactivity.
Longer sitting is associated with a higher risk of cancer (HR 1. 09; 95% CI 1. 06, 1.
11)), overall cancer incidence, obesity-related cancers (such as cancers of the esophagus, liver, kidneys, pancreas, colon, breast, ovary, thyroid, and stomach) and type 2 diabetes-related cancers (such as cancers of the esophagus, liver, kidneys, pancreas, colon, colon, ovarian, thyroid, and stomach cancers) 95% Confidence Interval 0. 79, 0. 99).
Important research restriction: A study based on a single line of British biology library volunteers found that the group had a higher health volunteer bias (which may be more active) and a higher physical activity intensity than the general population of the UK (which may mean more active activity), so the results may not apply to the general population of the UK, which means that the results may not apply to the general population of the UK as a whole.
