Accelerometer-Derived and Genetically Inferred Physical Activity and Human Disease

2021-08-08

Abstract excerpt

Physical activity is favorable to health but the relations with human disease and causal effects are poorly quantified. Previous studies have largely relied on self-reported estimates 1–3 which are subject to recall bias, confounding, and reverse causality. Using wrist-worn accelerometer measurements from the UK Biobank, we tested associations between moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) – both total MVPA...
