Physical activity and risk of neurodegenerative disease: a systematic review of prospective evidence (2008, background): “For example, Abbott et al. (2004) showed a linear reduction in risk of dementia across quintiles of increasing daily walking distance, although in other reports that assessed physical activity from combined frequency, duration and intensity data, there was weaker evidence for a dose–response…”
Physical activity and public health in older adults: recommendation from the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Heart Association. (2007, background): “There is some evidence that physical activity prevents or delays cognitive impairment (1,34,67) and disability (31,48,55,60), and improves sleep (32,56).”
Exercise as medicine – evidence for prescribing exercise as therapy in 26 different chronic diseases (2015, background): “Other studies show that regular physical activity prevents Alzheimer’s disease (Yoshitake et al., 1995; Laurin et al., 2001; Verghese et al., 2003; Abbott et al., 2004; Podewils et al., 2005; Rovio et al., 2005; Rovio et al., 2007; Ravaglia et al., 2008; Andel et al., 2008; Larson et al., 2006;…”
Long-term health benefits of physical activity – a systematic review of longitudinal studies (2013, unknown): “Six publications, involving 15,006 subjects, investigated the effect of physical activity on Alzheimer ’ s disease and dementia [32-37].”
Exercise Is Associated with Reduced Risk for Incident Dementia among Persons 65 Years of Age and Older (2006, background): “More recent studies showed that walking was associated with a reduced risk for dementia and Alzheimer disease in a cohort of Japanese-American men (20) and that engaging in more diverse physical activities was associated with a reduced risk for dementia in the Cardiovascular Health Study (21).”
Physical activity and functional limitations in older adults: a systematic review related to Canada's Physical Activity Guidelines (2010, background): “The positive studies had physical activity descriptors of physical activity or not [82], walking greater than 2 miles per day (versus less than 1 mile [83]), engaging in a number of activities [84], or various activities more versus less than 3 times per week [85], or for less than 30 up to greater ”
High impact running improves learning. (2007, background): “…regular physical activity is associated with a reduced risk for age-related neurodegenerative diseases, like dementia or Parkinson's disease (Abbott et al., 2004; Colcombe et al., 2004; Larson et al., 2006; Laurin, Verreault, Lindsay, Mac- Pherson, & Rockwood, 2001; van Gelder et al., 2004;…”
Enrichment Effects on Adult Cognitive Development (2008, background): “…with regard to whether possession of an e4 allele has a positive effect, negative effect, or no effect on the relationship between physical activity and cognition (Abbott et al., 2004; Larson et al., 2006; Podewils et al., 2005; Rovio et al., 2005; Schuit, Feskens, Launer, & Kromhout, 2001).”
