2.4.5. Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ)
MET-
To identify any changes in exercise which may have influenced outcomes over the course of the trial, participants were asked to complete the GPAQ at baseline, week 12, and week 24. The GPAQ consists of 19 questions, assessing the time spent per week partaking in physical activity across three domains: work, transport, and leisure. Within these domains, physical activity was further categorized into two sub-domains: vigorous or moderate activity. Based on the GPAQ responses, the number of Metabolic Equivalent (MET-) minutes achieved by each patient per week were calculated. The calculation of MET-minutes and data cleaning were performed in accordance with the GPAQ Analysis Guide.
