The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, 2nd edition, were issued by the US Department of Health and Human Services and were presented at the AHA Scientific Sessions 2018.
To test whether low stroke-volume reserve during exercise would accompany greater impairment in dynamic starling mechanism gain in patients with HFpEF, researchers studied 11 such patients at rest and...
In a retrospective review, researchers evaluated more than 100 physical therapy records to determine post-acute care and its impact on patient outcomes after total knee replacement surgery.
In order to further clarify the relationship between physical activity and mental health, researchers investigated the psychological effects of exercise vs no exercise, as well as the impact of exercise...
In a study of nearly 18,000 generally healthy men and women, researchers sought to investigate the impact of high fitness levels during midlife on the risk for depression, CVD mortality, and CVD mortality...
Central arterial stiffness is known to increase with sedentary aging, while near-daily, vigorous endurance exercise can help prevent arterial stiffening with age. In a new study, researchers aimed to...
The authors of a recent study aimed to clarify the impact of various levels of physical activity on all-cause mortality risk among older men with high levels of inactivity and sedentary behavior.
It is well known that regular physical activity helps decrease risk for cardiovascular disease. However, few American adults meet these guidelines. In a new study, researchers investigated patients’...
While physical activity is known to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, current guidelines focus on middle-aged adults. In a recent study, researchers compared the benefits of physical activity among...
While animal models have shown an association between increases in hippocampal volume and aerobic exercise, few studies have examined this association in humans.
