Objectively Measured Physical Activity in Older Adults With and Without Diabetes

In Brief People with known diabetes were found to be 20% less active than people without diabetes as measured by objective accelerometers. A threshold of 6,000 steps per day was associated with the lowest risk of prevalent diabetes. The study also emphasizes the use of objective techniques to measur...

description In Brief People with known diabetes were found to be 20% less active than people without diabetes as measured by objective accelerometers. A threshold of 6,000 steps per day was associated with the lowest risk of prevalent diabetes. The study also emphasizes the use of objective techniques to measure physical activity in subjects with diabetes.
