A cross-sectional analysis of the associations between leisure-time sedentary behaviors and clustered cardiometabolic risk.


ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the association between different types of leisure-time sedentary behavior (watching television, using a computer, reading and socializing) and clustered cardiometabolic risk in apparently healthy adults aged 40 to 65 years.One hundred seventy-three participants from the general population (64% women; mean age?=?54.4 years) consented to attend a cardiovascular examination program and to complete a questionnaire on leisure-time sedentary behaviors. Waist circumference, blood pressure, glucose, triglycerides, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol of non-fasting blood samples were assessed, and a clustered cardiometabolic risk score [CMRS] was calculated. Data were collected between February and July 2015. Associations between leisure-time sedentary behaviors and CMRS were analyzed using linear and quantile regression, adjusted for socio-demographic variables and other types of leisure-time sedentary behavior (model 1) and additionally, adjusted for leisure-time physical activity and traveling in motor vehicles (model 2).Linear regression revealed that there was a positive association between watching television and CMRS (model 1: b?=?0.27 [CI: 0.03; 0.52]; model 2: b?=?0.30 [CI: 0.05; 0.56]). In addition, quantile regression analysis revealed that using a computer was negatively associated with the 50th (model 1: b?=?-?0.43 [CI: -0.79; -?0.07]) and the 75th percentiles (model 1: b?=?-?0.71 [CI: -1.27; -?0.14]) of CMRS. Reading and socializing were not associated with CMRS.Watching television was positively associated with a clustered cardiometabolic risk score, while time spent using a computer revealed inconsistent findings. Our results give reason to consider different types of behaviors in which individuals are sedentary and the associations between these behaviors and cardiometabolic risk, supporting the need for behavior-specific assessments as well as public health recommendations to maintain or enhance adults' health.Clinical trial registration number: NCT02990039 , Retrospectively registered (December 12, 2016).
