Objectives
To investigate levels of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in a large sample of persons with multiple sclerosis (MS) and controls using accelerometry as a measure of physical activity, and to compare the rates of meeting public health guidelines for MVPA (ie, 30min/d) between persons with MS and controls.
Design
Secondary analysis of a combined data set of persons with MS and healthy controls from 13 previous investigations of physical activity over a 8-year period (2005–2013).
Setting
University.
Participants
Participants with MS (n=800) were recruited primarily within Illinois through multiple sources, including print and e-mail flyers and an online advertisement on the National Multiple Sclerosis Society website. Healthy controls (n=137) were recruited via public e-mail postings delivered across the university community.
Interventions
Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures
Levels of MVPA and meeting public health guidelines for MVPA between persons with MS and controls.
Results
After controlling for covariates (ie, age, sex, education, race, income), there was a moderate (d=.68) and statistically significant (F=47.2, P<.001 difference of minutes mvpa per day confidence interval between ms and controls. there was a in the rates meeting public health guidelines for p patients controls among those with significantly differed as function education employment status clinical course disease duration disability status.>
Conclusions
We provide data using an objective physical activity measure and a large sample to indicate that only a small proportion of persons with MS are achieving adequate amounts of daily MVPA. |
