Previous evidence in the general population has shown that not only is the total amount of ST harmful but the pattern of accumulation of sedentary behaviors is also relevant to health, with prolonged unbroken periods (ie, bouts) being particularly harmful.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objective<\/jats:title>\n To examine the association of the patterns of ST with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in women with fibromyalgia and to test whether these associations are independent of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n A total of 407 women (mean 51.4 years of age [SD 7.6]) with fibromyalgia participated. ST and MVPA were measured with triaxial accelerometry. The percentage of ST accumulated in bouts and the frequency of sedentary bouts of different lengths (\u226510 min, \u226520 min, \u226530 min, and \u226560 min) were obtained. Four groups combining total ST and sedentary bout duration (\u226530 min) were created. We assessed HRQoL using the 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n A greater percentage of ST spent in all bout lengths was associated with worsened physical function, bodily pain, vitality, social function, and physical component summary (PCS) (all P<.05). In addition, a higher percentage of ST in bouts of 60 minutes or more was related to worsened physical role (P=.04). A higher frequency of bouts was negatively associated with physical function, social function, the PCS (\u226530 min and \u226560 min), physical role (\u226560 min), bodily pain (\u226560 min), and vitality (\u226520 min, \u226530 min, and \u226560 min) (all P<.05). Overall, for different domains of HRQoL, these associations were independent of MVPA for higher bout lengths. Patients with high total ST and high sedentary bout duration had significantly worsened physical function (mean difference 8.73 units, 95% CI 2.31-15.15; independent of MVPA), social function (mean difference 10.51 units, 95% CI 2.59-18.44; not independent of MVPA), and PCS (mean difference 2.71 units, 95% CI 0.36-5.06; not independent of MVPA) than those with low ST and low sedentary bout duration.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n Greater ST in prolonged periods of any length and a higher frequency of ST bouts, especially in longer bout durations, are associated with worsened HRQoL in women with fibromyalgia. These associations were generally independent of MVPA.<\/jats:p>\n
