Association between physical activity levels and mild cognitive impairment in Chinese older adults: a cross-sectional study from the China health and retirement longitudinal study
Physical activity levels between 900 and 2,100 MET-min/week are associated with a reduced risk of MCI in the Chinese older adult population. Using physical activity to predict the risk of MCI in this population is feasible, and moderate physical activity may be an effective strategy for preventing and managing MCI.
