Does increased treadmill time improve coronary heart disease risk factors in middle-aged men free of known disease?
Increased physical fitness, as measured by treadmill time, is independently associated with favorable changes in lipid profiles and uric acid levels in middle-aged men.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Should not yet change practice for CHD prevention; leaves open causal effects of fitness on lipids and uric acid.
Blair et al. (1983) studied this question.
