Key result
Meeting physical activity guidelines was significantly associated with a higher mean mental well-being score compared to not meeting guidelines (50.64 vs 46.06; p < 0.05) in adults with CVD.
Why the study?
The association between physical activity and mental well-being in individuals with cardiovascular disease is poorly studied.

Does meeting physical activity guidelines improve mental well-being in adults with cardiovascular disease?
Absolute Event Rate: 50.64% vs 46.06%
p-value: p=< 0.05
Adherence to physical activity guidelines is strongly associated with better mental well-being in patients with cardiovascular disease.
Salman et al. (2019) conducted a cross-sectional in Cardiovascular disease (n=3,128). Adherence to physical activity guidelines vs. Unmet physical activity guidelines was evaluated on Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS) score (p=< 0.05). Meeting physical activity guidelines was significantly associated with a higher mean mental well-being score compared to not meeting guidelines (50.64 vs 46.06; p < 0.05) in adults with CVD.
