Cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes are significant and prevalent public health problems. Physical activity can decrease the risk for these conditions. However, reducing prolonged sitting may also be important. This research will add crucial new evidence on the role of sitting time in type 2 diabetes and heart disease, and will help with future decisions about whether reducing prolonged sitting at home and at work should be taken as seriously as promoting exercise for good health.

心血管疾病和2型糖尿病是重要和普遍的公共卫生问题。体力活动可以降低这些疾病的风险。然而，减少长时间坐着也很重要。这项研究将为久坐在2型糖尿病和心脏病中的作用提供重要的新证据，并将有助于未来决定是否应该像促进锻炼一样认真对待减少在家和工作中的久坐。
