Abstract

Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is associated with better cognition in older adults. However, the long-term associations between CRF levels and cognitive outcomes remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between baseline CRF, changes in CRF (from baseline to year 1 and year 3) and cognition in older adults.

Research summary

The paper investigates the long-term associations between cardiorespiratory fitness and cognitive outcomes in older adults. This research is relevant as it explores factors that may contribute to healthier aging and cognitive longevity, addressing potential root causes of age-related cognitive decline.
