Objective. The aim of this study is to quantify associations between objectively measured sedentary time and
markers of insulin sensitivity by considering allocation into light-intensity physical activity or moderate- to
vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA).
Methods. Participants with an increased risk of impaired glucose regulation (IGR) were recruited (Leicestershire, United Kingdom, 20102011). Sedentary, light-intensity physical activity and MVPA time were measured
using accelerometers. Fasting and 2-hour post-challenge insulin and glucose were assessed; insulin sensitivity
was calculated by HOMA-IS and Matsuda-ISI. Isotemporal substitution regression models were used. Data
were analysed in 2014.
Results. 508 participants were included (average age = 65 years, female = 34%). Reallocating 30 min of sedentary time into light-intensity physical activity was associated a 5% (95% CI 1, 9%; p = 0.024) difference in
Matsuda-ISI after adjustment for measured confounding variables. Reallocation into MVPA was associated
with a 15% (7, 25%; p b 0.001) difference in HOMA-IS and 18% (8, 28%; p b 0.001) difference in Matsuda-ISI. Results for light-intensity physical activity were modied by IGR status with stronger associations seen in those
with IGR.
Conclusions. Reallocating sedentary time into light-intensity physical activity or MVPA was associated with
differences in insulin sensitivity, with stronger and more consistent associations seen for MVPA.

for reallocation into MVPA (Buman et al., 2014). Buman and colleagues
also reported that reallocating objectively assessed sedentary time for
light activity was associated with better physical health and wellbeing in older adults (Buman et al., 2010). We extend these observations in the general population to investigate the associations of
reallocating sedentary time to light-intensity physical activity or
moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) with markers
of glucose regulation and insulin sensitivity in a primary care population
at increased risk of type 2 diabetes.

This study reports baseline data from the Walking Away from Type 2 Diabetes study, the methods of which have been published elsewhere (Yates et al.,
2012). A total of 833 participants at increased risk of type 2 diabetes were recruited through 10 primary care practices in Leicestershire, UK, in 20102011;
the analysis was conducted in 2014. Individuals with an increased risk of impaired glucose regulation (IGR) (composite of impaired glucose tolerance
(IGT) and/or impaired fasting glycaemia (IFG) and/or undiagnosed type 2 diabetes) were identied using a modied version of the Leicester Risk Score
(Gray et al., 2012a). Those individuals scoring within the 90th percentile in
each practice were invited to take part in the study. This approach has reasonable sensitivity and specicity for identifying participants with IGR (Gray
et al., 2012a, 2012b). Individuals were unaware of their diabetes risk status before entering the study. We excluded those who had previously diagnosed type
2 diabetes, were currently taking steroids or were unable to take part in any
walking activity.

Seven hundred and twenty seven participants (87%) had valid accelerometer data. Of these 508 had both fasting and 2-h insulin levels and
were included in this study. Those with missing data were younger
(62.1 years for missing vs. 63.8 years complete; p = 0.004), were
more likely to be female (41% vs. 34%; p = 0.042) and more likely to
be from a Black and minority ethnic population (15 vs. 10%; p =
0.012) than those with complete data. However, there was no difference
in BMI, fasting glucose or 2-h glucose.
Table 1 displays the characteristics of the included participants, and
Table 2 displays the results of the isotemporal substitution model.
Reallocating 30 min per day of sedentary time into light-intensity physical activity was associated with a 5% (19%; p = 0.024) difference in
Matsuda-ISI. No associations were seen for HOMA-IS, however signicant associations were observed for 2-h glucose and 2-h insulin
(Table 2). Reallocating 30 min per day of sedentary time into MVPA
was associated with a 15% (725%; p b 0.001) difference in HOMA-IS
and 18% (828%; p b 0.001) difference in Matsuda-ISI. Inverse associations were also seen for fasting and 2-h insulin (Table 2).

Discussion
Reallocation of sedentary time into either light-intensity physical activity or MVPA was associated with enhanced insulin sensitivity in those
with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, with more consistent and
stronger associations seen for MVPA. For example, reallocating sedentary time into light-intensity physical activity and MVPA was associated
with differences in Matsuda-ISI; however over 1.5 h of reallocation into
light-intensity physical activity was needed to gain an equivalent difference as that observed for 30 min of MVPA. The stronger associations
with MVPA appeared to be primarily driven by the greater physical activity volume accumulated per unit time rather than intensity per se.
Results for light-intensity physical activity were signicantly modied
by IGR status with stronger associations seen in those with IGR. To our
knowledge this is the rst study to quantify associations of sedentary
behaviour on common indexes of insulin sensitivity in a population
with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes.
Our results are similar to the only other study using an isotemporal
substitution approach to quantify the association of objectively measured sedentary behaviour with markers of insulin sensitivity. Using
data from a sub-sample of NHANES, Buman et al. found that substituting
sedentary time into light-intensity physical activity was associated with
fasting insulin, but with stronger associations for MVPA (Buman et al.,
2014). Other studies that have adjusted for MVPA have also found a
link between metabolic health and sedentary behaviour (Healy et al.,
2007; Cooper et al., 2012), although associations in some studies have
been weak or non-signicant (Maher et al., 2014). Importantly we
show that results for reallocating sedentary time into light-intensity
physical activity were signicantly modied by IGR status, with meaningful associations only observed in those with IGR. The potential
importance of substituting sedentary behaviour for light-intensity
physical activity in those with IGR is broadly consistent with
intervention studies in those with a high risk of, or diagnosed, type 2
diabetes, where improvements in measures of glycaemia or insulin
sensitivity have been shown following light-intensity exercise training
(Dumortier et al., 2003; Hansen et al., 2009; Kodama et al., 2007;
Segerstrm et al., 2010; Usui et al., 1998). Of particular relevance,
when light-intensity and moderate-intensity exercise training
programmes were matched for total volume in those with type 2 diabetes, similar reductions in HbA1c were reported (Hansen et al., 2009).
This is consistent with a recent meta-analysis of exercise training studies in those with type 2 diabetes that concluded that exercise volume,
but not intensity, was a signicant determinant of change in HbA1c
(Umpierre et al., 2011, 2013). Therefore, our study adds to this evidence
by emphasising the potential clinical relevance of increasing physical
activity volume throughout the day, regardless of intensity, in those
with IGR. However, we show that these results may not be generalizable
to those with normal glucose control as only time in MVPA was associated with differences in insulin sensitivity in this group; this nding requires further investigation.

a higher proportion of incidental activity (i.e. light house work) compared to higher thresholds.
We further sought to determine whether differences in the strength
of association of time in light-intensity physical activity and MVPA with
measures of insulin sensitivity were mediated by the total volume of
physical activity undertaken. Total accelerometer counts (a measure of
physical activity volume derived by the intensity and frequency of accelerations undertaken) were highly correlated with time in MVPA, thus
prohibiting adjustment for each other in the same model. As an alternative, we undertook a further isotemporal model to investigate whether
reallocating a unit of physical activity volume (100,000 counts per day)
from the light-intensity physical activity category into MVPA was
further associated with indices of insulin sensitivity.
Assumptions of linearity for each model were veried and multicollinearity was checked using the variance ination factor (VIF). VIF
values in all models were less than 5 indicating that multicollinearity
was low. P b 0.05 was considered signicant for main effects and
P b 0.1 for interactions. All statistical analyses were conducted using
IBM SPSS Statistics v20.0.
