Some health benefits of physical activity. The Framingham Study

William B. Kannel·1979·Archives of Internal Medicine

Abstract

Examination of activity in the Framingham cohort reveals that this is a sedentary population. Overall mortality and mortality due to cardiovascular and ischemic heart disease were inversely related to the level of physical activity for men. The effect of being sedentary on mortality is rather modest compared to the effects of other risk factors but, in mortality due to ischemic heart disease, it persists when these factors are taken into account. For women, the effect is negligible. In strokes, occlusive peripheral arterial disease, and cardiac failure, an inverse relationship is noted, but does not reach statistical significance. There is a statistically significant association with incidence of ischemic heart disease and with incidence of all forms of cardiovascular disease when they are taken together. Little correlation was noted between physical activity level (at the generally low level found) and the level of major risk factors. (Arch Intern Med139:857-861, 1979)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
