The Impact of Physical Activity on the Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes: Evidence and Lessons Learned From the Diabetes Prevention Program, a Long-Standing Clinical Trial Incorporating Subjective and Objective Activity Measures

Study (n=3,232) found a 6% decrease in diabetes incidence per 6 metabolic-hour [MET-h]/week increase in time-dependent physical activity (HR 0.94, 95%CI 0.92-0.96), with a greater effect in those less active at baseline (12% decrease).
