Paper

Abstract

The influence of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) on survival to late age with intact mobility is unclear. This study investigated associations between accelerometer-measured daily PA, SB, and survival to age 90 birthyear with and without intact mobility in the Women's Health Accelerometry Collaboration (WHAC).

Research summary

The paper claims that there are associations between accelerometer-measured physical activity and sedentary behavior with survival to age 90 and intact mobility. This research is relevant as it explores the role of lifestyle factors in promoting healthy longevity, which is a key aspect of aging research.
