Associations between device-measured physical activity patterns and 8-year incidence of cardiovascular events in well-functioning older adults: variations by age
In this cohort of generally well-functioning older adults, frequent daily engagement in MVPA was associated with a reduced risk of incident CVD. Among the oldest-old, recurrent participation in both LPA and MVPA was linked to lower CVD risk, highlighting the importance of frequent daily PA.
