Association between Metabolic Syndrome Status and Daily Physical Activity Measured by a Wearable Device in Japanese Office Workers.

(1) Background: This study examined the cross-sectional association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) status classified into three groups and daily physical activity (PA; step count and active minutes) using a wearable device in Japanese office workers. (2) Methods: This secondary analysis used data from 179 participants in the intervention group of a randomized controlled trial for 3 months. Individuals who had received an annual health check-up and had MetS or were at a high risk of MetS based on Japanese guidelines were asked to use a wearable device and answer questionnaires regarding their daily life for the entire study period.
