日均行走步数显示：中国人最勤快印尼人最懒

Scott Delp, a professor of bioengineering and one of the researchers, said: "The study is 1,000 times larger than any previous study on human movement.

参与此项研究的生物工程教授斯科特•德尔普说：“这项研究比以往任何一项关于人类运动的研究在规模上都要大上1000倍。”

Activity inequality

活动不均等

The findings have been published in the journal Nature and the study authors say the results give important insights for improving people's health.

研究结果发表在《自然》杂志上，作者们认为研究结果在改善人类健康方面有重大启示。

The average number of steps in a country appears to be less important for obesity levels, for example.

比如，一个国家的平均走路步数对肥胖水平来说似乎没有那么重要。

The key ingredient was "activity inequality" - it's like wealth inequality, except instead of the difference between rich and poor, it's the difference between the fittest and laziest.

关键的因素是“活动不均等”，就像财富不均等一样，只是活动不均等指的是最健康和最懒的人之间的差距，而非富人和穷人间的差距。

The bigger the activity inequality, the higher the rates of obesity.

活动越不均等，肥胖的比例就越高。

Tim Althoff, one of the researchers, said: "For instance, Sweden had one of the smallest gaps between activity rich and activity poor... it also had one of the lowest rates of obesity."
