Classification of occupations by accelerometer-derived variables for physical behaviour : Health Survey for England 2008 (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Clarke-Cornwell, A., Granat, M., & Cook, P. (2017, June). Classification of occupations by accelerometer-derived variables for physical behaviour : Health Survey for England 2008. Poster presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Objective: Leisure time sedentary behaviour (SB) is known to be associated with a number of healthrelated outcomes (HRO); however, for those who are economically active, occupational activity (OA) contributes towards their daily physical activity (PA...

An investigation into the effect of lower limb exercise programme on objectively measured physical activity in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Molyneux, J., Herrington, L., Clarke-Cornwell, A., & Jones, R. (2017, June). An investigation into the effect of lower limb exercise programme on objectively measured physical activity in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. Poster presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the leading causes of pain and disability. Exercise has been recommended as a core treatment for OA. Previous studies have shown that adults with symptomatic knee OA take between 4000-6700 steps per day, which is less th...

The distribution of activPAL postural and stepping classifications within ActiGraph activity classifications (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Clarke-Cornwell, A., Cook, P., & Granat, M. (2017, June). The distribution of activPAL postural and stepping classifications within ActiGraph activity classifications. Presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Bethesda, USA

Objective: Guidelines of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) are dependent on how we define and quantify physical behaviour. It is therefore important to understand the validity of objective measures of PA and SB. This study aimed to...

Review of wearable technologies (2017)
Journal Article
Clarke-Cornwell, A. (2017). Review of wearable technologies. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 76(Supp 2), 7. https://doi.org/10.1136/annrheumdis-2017-eular.7177

Working environments have in recent times become less physical with the increase in sedentary, computer-based occupations. Sedentary time is known to be associated with a number of health-related outcomes, including obesity, heart disease, diabetes,... Read More about Review of wearable technologies.

Sedentary time and physical activity surveillance through accelerometer pooling in four european countries (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Objective: To pool, harmonise and re-analyse national accelerometer data from adults in four European countries in order to describe population levels of sedentary time and physical inactivity.

Methods Five cross-sectional studies were included f... Read More about Sedentary time and physical activity surveillance through accelerometer pooling in four european countries.

Empirically derived cut-points for sedentary behaviour for weekdays and weekends : are we sitting differently? (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Clarke-Cornwell, A., Farragher, T., Cook, P., Dugdill, L., & Granat, M. (2015, June). Empirically derived cut-points for sedentary behaviour for weekdays and weekends : are we sitting differently?. Presented at International Conference on Ambulatory Monitoring of Physical Activity and Movement, Limerick, Ireland

Introduction: Sedentary behaviour (SB) is associated with many adverse health outcomes. Studies that have used accelerometers to define sedentary time usually adopt a <100 counts per minute (cpm) threshold for classifying SB; however, this cut-poi...
