Patterns of sedentary behavior by cognition groups.

Normal (n = 271) Low MoCA only (n = 252) MCI (n = 105) AD (n = 182)
Average sedentary bout length 6.6 ± 0.2d 6.5 ± 0.2d 6.3 ± 0.3d 7.9 ± 0.2abc
Numbers of sedentary bouts (≥ 1 min) 91.5 ± 1.0d 91.4 ± 1.0d 89.4 ± 1.6 86.1 ± 1.3ab
Numbers of sedentary bouts (≥ 30 min) 3.3 ± 0.1d 3.3 ± 0.1d 3.5 ± 0.2d 4.1 ± 0.1abc
Numbers of non-sedentary bouts (1–3 min) 60.9 ± 0.8 60.5 ± 0.8 58.1 ±1.3 59.3 ± 1.1
Numbers of non-sedentary bouts (≥ 10 min) 10.0 ± 0.3d 10.2 ± 0.3d 10.6 ± 0.4d 8.5 ± 0.3abc

Notes: MoCA = Montreal Cognitive Assessment; MCI = mild cognitive impairment; AD = Alzheimer’s disease.

Least square means are adjusted for age, gender, years of education, BMI, usual gait speed, living status, disease burden and wear time.

a:

p < 0.05 for pairwise mean difference when comparing with normal group.

b:

p < 0.05 for pairwise mean difference when comparing with low MoCA only group.

c:

p < 0.05 for pairwise mean difference when comparing with MCI group.

d:

p < 0.05 for pairwise mean difference when comparing with AD group.
