Physiology of sedentary behavior
Sedentary behaviors (SB) are characterized by low energy expenditure while in a sitting or
reclining posture. Evidence relevant to understanding the physiology of SB can be derived …

Sit less and move more for cardiovascular health: emerging insights and opportunities
Sedentary behaviour—put simply, too much sitting, as a distinct concept from too little
exercise—is a novel determinant of cardiovascular risk. This definition provides a …

The effects of acute exposure to prolonged sitting, with and without interruption, on vascular function among adults: a meta-analysis
Background Exposure to acute prolonged sitting can result in vascular dysfunction,
particularly within the legs. This vascular dysfunction, assessed using flow-mediated dilation …

Aortic stiffness increases during prolonged sitting independent of intermittent standing or prior exercise
Introduction Adverse vascular responses can occur during prolonged sitting, including
stiffening of the aortic artery which may contribute to cardiovascular disease. Few studies …
