Despite the fact that Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, little is known about risk factors for the disease. Laboratory experiments indicate that physical activity may have a neuroprotective effect; however, ther

Since Hippocrates first advised us more than 2000 years ago that exercise-though not too much of it--was good for health, the epidemiology of physical activity has developed apace with the epidemiological method itself. It was only in the mid-20th ce

Over the past 50 years or so, many epidemiologic studies have examined the association between physical activity or physical fitness and coronary heart disease (CHD) risk. Their findings have been consistent, showing that physically active or fit men

Background —Physical activity is associated with a decreased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). However, it is unclear whether the duration of exercise episodes is important: Are accumulated shorter sessions as predictive of decreased risk as lo
