| Popis: | BackgroundCurrent knowledge about the relationship between physical activity (PA) and cardiac remodeling is mainly derived from cross-sectional studies of athletes, and there is a knowledge gap of this association in the general adult and elderly population. Therefore, we aimed to explore the longitudinal association between cumulative PA and change in cardiac structure and function in a general adult and elderly population.MethodsThis longitudinal study includes 594 participants from the sixth (Tromsø6, 2007–08) and seventh (Tromsø7, 2015–16) survey of the Tromsø Study. Cardiac structure and function were assessed by echocardiography at two time points, and PA was self-reported by questionnaire at both time points. PA volume was expressed as cumulative PA (Low, Moderate, and Hard) and the association with left atrial (LA) and left ventricular (LV) structure and function was assessed using ANCOVA.ResultsOverall, LA diameter index (LADi) increased significantly more in Hard compared to Moderate PA (+0.08 cm/m2, 95% CI 0.01–0.15, p = 0.020) from Tromsø6 to Tromsø7. When stratified by sex or age, higher levels of cumulative PA were associated with increased LADi in males and in participants 2.7, 95% CI 0.23–7.57, p = 0.037). When stratified by sex or age, these changes in LVMi and indexed LV diameter (LVDi) were only significant in females. No significant associations were observed between cumulative PA and change in relative wall thickness, E/e' ratio, e' velocity, LV ejection fraction, and LADi/LVDi ratio.ConclusionHigher levels of cumulative PA were associated with increased LADi in males and participants |
