Background The efficacy of high-intensity interval training (HIT) as a time-efficient exercise strategy for beneficially modifying risk factors for cardiovascular disease has repeatedly been demonstrated in controlled laboratory settings. However, t...

A comparison of self-reported and device measured sedentary behaviour in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2020)
Journal Article
Buckley, J. P., Prince, S. A., Cardilli, L., Reed, J. L., Saunders, T. J., Kite, C., …Fournier, K. (2020). A comparison of self-reported and device measured sedentary behaviour in adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis. International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 17(1), Article ARTN 31. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12966-020-00938-3

BACKGROUND: Sedentary behaviour (SB) is a risk factor for chronic disease and premature mortality. While many individual studies have examined the reliability and validity of various self-report measures for assessing SB, it is not clear, in general,...

Adrenal lesions found incidentally: how to improve clinical and cost-effectiveness (2020)
Journal Article
Hanna, F., Issa, B., Lea, S., George, C., Golash, A., Firn, M., …Fryer, A. (2020). Adrenal lesions found incidentally: how to improve clinical and cost-effectiveness. BMJ Open Quality, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjoq-2018-000572

INTRODUCTION: Adrenal incidentalomas are lesions that are incidentally identified while scanning for other conditions. While most are benign and hormonally non-functional, around 20% are malignant and/or hormonally active, requiring prompt interventi...
