The aim of this study was to determine whether cardiorespiratory fitness modifies the association of birth weight with insulin resistance in adults. METHODS The subjects were 379 Japanese individuals (137 males, 242 females) aged 20-64 years born after 1943. Insulin resistance was assessed using a homeost...

متن کاملAssociation Between Midlife Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Risk of Stroke
Stroke remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. In the United States, stroke remains the third leading cause of death and a common reason for hospitalization, accounting for >$28 billion in direct medical costs annually. Several previous studies have demonstrated an inverse relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and both fatal and nonfatal stroke. However, the...
متن کاملThe association between cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiovascular risk in adolescents.
OBJECTIVE Maximum oxygen uptake is emerging as the measure of preference for expressing cardiorespiratory fitness for the purposes of surveys of physical activity, due to its greater objectivity and lower propensity to errors. Studies indicate that this measure is better correlated with cardiovascular diseases. This paper proposes to relate cardiovascular risk factors in adolescents with their ...
متن کاملRelationship between low cardiorespiratory fitness and mortality in normal-weight, overweight, and obese men.
CONTEXT Recent guidelines for treatment of overweight and obesity include recommendations for risk stratification by disease conditions and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, but the role of physical inactivity is not prominent in these recommendations. OBJECTIVE To quantify the influence of low cardiorespiratory fitness, an objective marker of physical inactivity, on CVD and all-caus...
