Exercise in adulthood may reduce risk of heart disease-related death by 40%: Study
Adapting consistent physical activities over the adulthood may reduce the risk of deaths linked to cardiovascular (heart-related) deaths, revealed the analysis of 85 studies.The analysis, published in British Journal of Sports Medicine and authored by Ruyi Yu, Stephanie L Duncombe, Yuta Nemoto, Raphael HO Araujo, and Hsin-Fang Chung, all associated with prestigious institutions across the world.The study is titled “Physical activity trajectories and accumulation over adulthood and their associations with all-cause and cause-specific mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis”.“Initiating PA at any point in adulthood can provide health benefits. In the meantime, future PA interventions may not only target inactive people, but also support active people to maintain their activity,” said the study.As per the study, the data was take from studies at PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, MEDLINE, SPORTDiscus, and other reference.The eligibility criteria was kept at non-clinical adult population, whose PA was assessed ≥ 2 timepoints as exposure, for all-cause, CVD or cancer mortality as outcomes with risk measures, taking data from publication up to April 9, 2024, and in English.“Higher PA was associated with lower risk of all outcomes. Consistently and increasingly active individuals had around 20–40% lower risk of all-cause mortality and 30–40% lower risk of CVD mortality; however, the associations with decreasing PA patterns were less evident,” concluded the study.
