Normative percentile curves of accelerometer-measured daily step counts in Korean older adults
This study provides objective sex- and age-specific normative reference values for daily step counts in older Korean adults. These values can be used to evaluate physical activity levels, guide personalized goal setting, and inform national health promotion strategies for aging populations. The limitations of this study include its cross-sectional design and the potential underestimation of non-ambulatory activity by accelerometers.
