Why the study?
Does greater accelerometer-derived physical activity reduce the risk of atrial fibrillation and stroke?
Does greater accelerometer-derived physical activity reduce the risk of atrial fibrillation and stroke?
Greater accelerometer-derived physical activity is associated with lower risks of atrial fibrillation and stroke, suggesting objective activity thresholds could guide preventive efforts.
Should not yet change activity guidance; hypothesis-generating for randomized prevention trials in AF and stroke.
Greater accelerometer-derived physical activity is associated with lower risks of AF and stroke. Future preventive efforts to reduce AF risk may be most effective when targeting adherence to objective activity thresholds.
