Association between cardiorespiratory fitness and total brain myelin volume among older adults
We demonstrated that higher brain myelin content was positively associated with better cardiorespiratory fitness and higher upper and lower limb muscle strength in older individuals. These findings provide new insights into the development of improved rehabilitation and exercise schemes to preserve cognitive health in the older adult population.
