Why the study?
Do increasingly active trajectories of physical activity reduce major cardiovascular diseases and overall mortality in elderly people?
Do increasingly active trajectories of physical activity reduce major cardiovascular diseases and overall mortality in elderly people?
Promoting at least 20 minutes per day of physical activity early in late life provides significant cardiovascular and mortality benefits.
May support activity promotion in older adults; leaves open causality pending randomized confirmation.
Increasingly active trajectories of physical activity were associated with lower rates of cardiovascular diseases and overall mortality. Promoting at least 20 min/day of physical activity early in late life seems to provide the greatest cardiovascular benefits.
