Epidemiologic studies of modifiable factors associated with cognition and dementia: systematic review and meta-analysis (2014, background): “Significant findings were obtained by other recent cohort [132-145,147,148,150-154,156-158] and cross-sectional studies [100,146,149].”
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 ”
Long-term health benefits of physical activity – a systematic review of longitudinal studies (2013, positive): “…between physical activity and Alzheimer ’ s disease and dementia in healthy participants at baseline has only been reported in very few studies [32-37], further emphasizing the overall lack of studies and specifically the lack of long-term studies that include people without dementia or…”
Epidemiology of Alzheimer Disease (2012, neutral): “Although some studies have failed to detect an association between physical activity and dementia (Wang et al. 2002; Wilson et al. 2002a; Verghese et al. 2003b), others have observed a beneficial role (Podewils et al. 2005; Rovio et al. 2005; Larson et al. 2006; Wang et al. 2006 ).”
Exercise as medicine – evidence for prescribing exercise as therapy in 26 different chronic diseases (2015, background): “…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; Akbaraly et al.,…”
Aerobic Fitness is Associated With Hippocampal Volume in Elderly Humans (2009, neutral): “These results are generally consistent with a large epidemiological literature that reports that physical inactivity is a significant risk factor for the development of MCI and AD (Barnes et al., 2003; Podewils et al., 2005; Larson et al., 2006; Andel et al., 2008).”
Physical activity and risk of neurodegenerative disease: a systematic review of prospective evidence (2008, background): “For dementia and Alzheimer’s disease outcomes we identified five high-quality studies (Laurin et al. 2001 ; Wilson et al. 2002 ; Abbott et al. 2004 ; Podewils et al. 2005 ; Rovio et al. 2005) that had used an adequate and valid assessment of physical activity and adjusted for relevant confounders,…”
