Overview

Observational study examines the weekend warrior activity pattern's impact on osteoporosis and fracture risk, suggesting protective benefits.

Key Points

  • This research investigates how the weekend warrior physical activity pattern affects the risk of osteoporosis and fractures, alongside identifying related metabolites.
  • Included 14,069 UK Biobank participants with accelerometer and metabolomic data.
  • Examined physical activity patterns using Cox proportional hazards models.
  • Identified metabolites linked to activity patterns using elastic net regression.
  • Conducted analyses based on polygenic risk scores for osteoporosis and fracture.
  • Weekend warrior pattern was linked to reduced risks of osteoporosis (HR: 0.59) and fracture (HR: 0.77).
  • Identified 51 metabolites for the weekend warrior pattern and 62 for regular activity.
  • Each SD increase in metabolomic signature corresponded to 27% lower osteoporosis risk (HR: 0.73) and 12% lower fracture risk (HR: 0.88).
  • Associations were not notably influenced by genetic susceptibility to osteoporosis or fracture.
