114Smart Wearable Technologies for Fall Detection, Risk Assessment, and Prevention in Older Adults: A Review
More intense activity linked to lower cardiovascular disease risk
Participants exceeding 69.8 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous activity daily had a hazard ratio—a measure of relative risk—of 0.68 compared with the…Participants exceeding 69.8 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous activity daily had a hazard ratio—a measure of relative risk—of 0.68 compared with the lowest activity group.
Meeting Bouted versus Non-Bouted Physical Activity Guidelines and Health Outcomes in CARDIA
Activity’s link to knee and hip arthritis varied with weight
A cohort study following 85,196 people for a median 10.11 years linked moderate activity to the lowest arthritis risk among overweight and obese…A cohort study following 85,196 people for a median 10.11 years linked moderate activity to the lowest arthritis risk among overweight and obese participants.
Replacing sitting with brisk activity linked to lower AF odds in US
In the REGARDS cohort, substituting 30 sedentary minutes with moderate-to-vigorous activity yielded an odds ratio of 0.80 for atrial fibrillation…In the REGARDS cohort, substituting 30 sedentary minutes with moderate-to-vigorous activity yielded an odds ratio of 0.80 for atrial fibrillation, while light activity showed no association.
Wearable movement data links to hundreds of human diseases
In 70,473 adults followed for up to 10 years, 210 wearable activity phenotypes were linked to 406 diseases, with step intensity and circadian rhythm…In 70,473 adults followed for up to 10 years, 210 wearable activity phenotypes were linked to 406 diseases, with step intensity and circadian rhythm showing prominent ties.
Physical activity may not buffer against later cognitive decline
In 719 older adults, device-measured activity tracked baseline cognition, but after adjusting for prior scores, the link faded 26 months later (beta =…In 719 older adults, device-measured activity tracked baseline cognition, but after adjusting for prior scores, the link faded 26 months later (beta = 0.04).
