Long-term sickness absence from work due to physical inactivity: A registry-based study.

CONCLUSIONS: The study showed that physically inactive individuals have a higher incidence of long-term absence and that physically inactive individuals have longer periods with sickness absence than moderately and highly active individuals. When adjustments for social and health behaviour were included, the estimated associations became statistically insignificant. PMID: 29366394 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
