Physical capability predicts mortality in late mid-life as well as in old age: Findings from a large British cohort study
INTRODUCTION Low physical capability predicts mortality, perhaps by association with co-morbidity. However, few studies include participants <70years old with lower co-morbidity burdens compared to older adults. We examined relationships between usual walking speed (UWS), timed chair stands speed, grip strength, standing balance and all-cause mortality in 8477 participants aged 48-92years enrol...
متن کاملPhysical Activity, Sedentary Time and Physical Capability in Early Old Age: British Birth Cohort Study
PURPOSE To investigate the associations of time spent sedentary, in moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) and physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) with physical capability measures at age 60-64 years. METHODS Time spent sedentary and in MVPA and, PAEE were assessed using individually calibrated combined heart rate and movement sensing among 1727 participants from the ...
متن کاملChildhood Cognitive Ability and Age-Related Changes in Physical Capability From Midlife: Findings From a British Birth Cohort Study
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to test the hypothesis that higher childhood cognitive ability is associated with reduced risk of decline in physical capability in late midlife. METHODS Participants were 1954 men and women from the Medical Research Council National Survey of Health and Development with complete data on cognitive ability at age of 15 years and measures of grip strength and ...
متن کاملPhysical activity levels across adult life and grip strength in early old age: updating findings from a British birth cohort
INTRODUCTION observational studies do not always find positive associations between physical activity and muscle strength despite intervention studies consistently showing that exercise improves strength in older adults. In previous analyses of the MRC National Survey of Health and Development (NSHD), the 1946 British birth cohort, there was no evidence of an association between leisure time ph...
متن کاملPubertal timing and bone phenotype in early old age: findings from a British birth cohort study
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of pubertal timing, assessed in adolescence, on bone size, strength and density in men and women in early old age. DESIGN A British birth cohort study with prospective indicators of pubertal timing based on age at menarche, clinical assessment of pubertal stage, and growth tempo from serial height measures, and bone measures derived from peripheral quantit...
