Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) lowers the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Identifying protein modules that mediate this association may help dissect these biological underpinnings, but they remain incompletely characterized. METHODS: We studied 28,842 diabetes-free UK Biobank participants with baseline plasma proteomics. Guideline-adherent MVPA was defined as ≥ 600 metabolic equivalent...
