Joint associations between objectively measured physical activity volume and intensity with body-fatness. The Fenland Study
Background/Objectives Physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) represents the total volume of all physical activity. This can be accumulated as different underlying intensity profiles. Although volume and intensity have been studied in isolation, less is known about their joint association with health. We examined this association with body-fatness in a population-based sample of middle-aged British women […]

Resting heart rate as a biomarker for tracking change in cardiorespiratory fitness of UK adults: The Fenland Study
Aims Resting heart rate (RHR) is inversely associated with cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) but few studies have investigated the nature of this relationship in large population samples. We examined the association between RHR and CRF in UK adults and explored factors that may influence this relationship. Methods and Results In a population-based sample of 5,143 men […]

A combination of metabolites predicts adherence to the Mediterranean diet pattern and its associations with insulin sensitivity and lipid homeostasis in the general population: the Fenland Study, United Kingdom
Background Cardiometabolic benefits of the Mediterranean diet have been recognized, but underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Objectives We aimed to investigate how the Mediterranean diet could influence circulating metabolites and how the metabolites could mediate the associations of the diet with cardiometabolic risk factors. Methods Among 10,806 participants (58.9% women, mean age = 48.4 […]

Associations of types of dairy consumption with adiposity: cross-sectional findings from over 12 000 adults in the Fenland Study
Evidence from randomised controlled trials supports beneficial effects of total dairy products on body weight, fat and lean mass, but evidence on associations of dairy types with distributions of body fat and lean mass is limited. We aimed to investigate associations of total and different types of dairy products with markers of adiposity, and body […]

Sociodemographic, lifestyle and behavioural factors associated with consumption of sweetened beverages among adults in Cambridgeshire, UK: the Fenland Study
Objective We aimed to identify socio-demographic, lifestyle and behavioural determinants of consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and artificially-sweetened beverages (ASBs) in adults in Cambridgeshire, UK. Design Cross-sectional data were obtained from a cohort of 9,991 adults born between 1950 and 1975. A food frequency questionnaire was used to assess consumption of beverages and other dietary […]

Independent and combined associations between fast-food outlet exposure and genetic risk for obesity: a population-based, cross-sectional study in the UK
Background Characteristics of the built environment, such as neighbourhood fast-food outlet exposure, are increasingly recognised as risk factors for unhealthy diet and obesity. Obesity also has a genetic component, with common genetic variants explaining a substantial proportion of population-level obesity susceptibility. However, it is not known whether and to what extent associations between fast-food outlet […]

Associations of active commuting with body fat and visceral adipose tissue: a cross-sectional population based study in the UK
The promotion of active travel (walking and cycling) is one promising approach to prevent the development of obesity and related cardio-metabolic disease. However the associations between active travel and adiposity remain uncertain. We used the Fenland study (a population based-cohort study; Cambridgeshire, UK, 2005–15) to describe the association of commuting means with DEXA measured body […]

Interplay of socioeconomic status and supermarket distance is associated with excess obesity risk: a UK cross-sectional study
U.S. policy initiatives have sought to improve health through attracting neighborhood supermarket investment. Little evidence exists to suggest that these policies will be effective, in particular where there are socioeconomic barriers to healthy eating. We measured the independent associations and combined interplay of supermarket access and socioeconomic status with obesity. Using data on 9702 UK […]
