Prolonged sitting increases the risk of gallstone disease regardless of physical activity: a cohort study.

CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that sitting time may be associated with GSD risk regardless of physical activity. The findings of this study suggest that both increasing participation in physical activity and reducing sitting time may be independently important in reducing the risk of GSD.
