DOI: 10.1016/j.jsams.2020.08.003
Abstract: OBJECTIVES Non-wear time algorithms have not been validated in pregnant women with overweight/obesity (PW-OW/OB), potentially leading to misclassification of sedentary/activity data, and inaccurate estimates of how physical activity is associated with pregnancy outcomes. We examined:… read more here.
