Neural
Patients with reduced leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) at baseline had an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) events, with an adjusted hazard ratio of 2.3 for no LTPA compared to those with LTPA more than three times weekly.
Encouraging regular LTPA may reduce CV event risk in CAD patients.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
During the 2-year follow-up, patients with reduced LTPA at baseline had an increased risk of CV events (adjusted hazard ratio 2.3 [95% CI 1.1-5.1; P = 0.033]...) compared with those with LTPA more than three times weekly.
Why this rating
Based on the controlled study design and statistical analysis presented.
