Sedentary behavior and disease risk
Globally, approximately one third of the population aged 15 and above does not get enough exercise and engages in various types of sedentary behaviors. Sedentary behavior is characterized by activities with a very low energy expenditure, usually in a sitting, reclining, or lying posture. Common examples of sedentary behaviors are using computers, watching television, using phones or tablets, playing video games, reading and driving. Insufficient physical activity and sedentary behaviors result in an increase of all-cause mortality. Moreover, they are associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, musculoskeletal disorders, depression, and some types of cancers. BMC Public Health has launched this collection calling for research on sedentary behavior and disease risk.
