Representative Research Studies ActiGraph monitoring solutions have been used extensively in many high profile research studies to objectively determine the physical activity profiles and sleep behavior in hundreds of thousands of research subjects around the world. We have more than a decade of proven expertise in building scalable solutions to meet the specific data collection, analysis, reporting and management requirements for projects of varying size and scope. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is an ongoing program of studies conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics responsible for producing vital health statistics for the United States. ActiGraph devices were used to collect physical activity data on 15,000 subjects in the 20032004 and 2005-2006 cycles of the survey. The most recent 2011-2012 cycle was the first to monitor participants for 24 hours a day, resulting in one of the largest samples of sleep data ever collected. The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young Study (TEDDY) The aim of the TEDDY study is to identify the causes of type 1 diabetes mellitus through the investigation of environmental and genetic triggers that cause high risk children to develop diabetes. A consortium of six Clinical Centers throughout the U.S. and Europe has been created to develop and carry out studies on a proposed sample of 7800 neonates with a predetermined type 1 diabetes risk. PROactive COPD Project PROactive is a European project aiming to develop new tools that will enable patients, doctors and researchers to accurately assess the improvement or deterioration of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). After an intensive selection process, ActiGraph devices are being used to obtain a comprehensive physical activity overview in 250 COPD patients enrolled in the study. 10 Women’s Health study This landmark study conducted by Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School began in 1993 as randomized trial of low-dose aspirin and vitamin E supplementation for cardiovascular disease and cancer prevention in nearly 40,000 female health professionals aged 45 and older. The trial concluded in 2004, and the WHS has now evolved into one of the largest and longest-running observational studies of women’s health in the U.S. An ancillary study examining physical activity and health outcomes is currently underway involving approximately 30,000 women from the original trial. ActiGraph GT3X+ devices are being used to objectively measure physical activity for 7 days in study participants. International Study of Childhood Obesity, Lifestyle and the Environment (ISCOLE) This collaborative study between Pennington Biomedical Research Center and the Coca-Cola Company examines the influence of behavioral, physical, social, and policy environments on weight gain in school aged children. ActiGraph GT3X+ devices are used to collect objective 24 hour activity and sleep/wake data on 6000 children in 12 countries across North America, Latin America, Europe, Eurasia, Africa and the Pacific. Transdisciplinary Research on Energetics and Cancer (TREC) Established by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in 2005, the Transdisciplinary Research on Energetics and Cancer (TREC) initiative is a major scientific research effort aimed at reducing cancer linked with obesity, poor diet, and low levels of physical activity. ActiGraph devices are used extensively to capture objective information about physical activity and sleep behavior in adults and children in numerous studies under the TREC initiative.
