Wearable device-based health equivalence of different physical activity intensities against mortality, cardiometabolic disease, and cancer.

Nature communications·October 7, 2025·PMID 41057301

Why it matters

Current guidelines and wearable devices often rely on self-reported activity ratios that may underestimate the potency of vigorous activity. These device-based estimates can refine exercise prescriptions and improve the accuracy of activity trackers in predicting health outcomes.
