Higher residential and employment densities are associated with more objectively measured walking in the home neighborhood
2019, Journal of Transport and HealthCitation Excerpt :In the present analysis, a valid day had at least one place record in the travel diary and accelerometer wearing time of ≥ 8 hours. Accelerometer periods of ≥ 20 min with continuous zero values were considered non-wearing times (Troiano and Freedson, 2010). An assessment day may or may not have had GPS data.
Nonexercise activity thermogenesis in obesity management
2015, Mayo Clinic ProceedingsCitation Excerpt :No changes were seen in energy intake.77 A limitation of tracking NEAT using these novel devices is assuming that all PAs have an energy cost equivalent while ignoring the intrinsic differences in fitness.78 Accelerometers still have limitations regarding generalizability and validity, between-study comparability, and sustainability.79
A pocket-sized metabolic analyzer for assessment of resting energy expenditure
2014, Clinical NutritionCitation Excerpt :REE is the energy expenditure required to maintain basic body functions in a resting state, which cannot be measured by the physical sensors mentioned above. Furthermore, the physical-activity sensors are inadequate for monitoring low-energy physical activities, such as office work.4,5 For these reasons, determining REE may be critically important for weight management programs.
Accelerometer-determined moderate intensity lifestyle activity and cardiometabolic health
2011, Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :Furthermore, we were able to associate a novel physical activity output, LA steps/day (ambulation), to cardiometabolic risk indicators. Steps provide an easily translatable metric for practitioners and the general public which can bridge the gap between research and practice (Troiano and Freedson, 2010). While NHANES is a large, nationally representative sample, it is cross-sectional, and the results do not imply causation.
