Patterns of physical activity and stroke in adults.
Evenson, Kelly Renee.

Patterns of physical activity and stroke in adults. - 130 p.

Adviser: Wayne D. Rosamond.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 1998.

Descriptive data on how physical activity patterns change during adulthood are limited, yet important, in designing effective interventions. These patterns may vary by education, income, and retirement. According to the 1996 United States Surgeon General's Report on Physical Activity and Health, the relationship between physical activity and stroke requires further investigation. Therefore, the goals of this work were to examine changes in leisure activity, to describe how social factors influenced activity patterns, and to investigate the relationship between physical activity and stroke.

520 $a Descriptive data on how physical activity patterns change during adulthood are limited, yet important, in designing effective interventions. These patterns may vary by education, income, and retirement. According to the 1996 United States Surgeon General's Report on Physical Activity and Health, the relationship between physical activity and stroke requires further investigation. Therefore, the goals of this work were to examine changes in leisure activity, to describe how social factors influenced activity patterns, and to investigate the relationship between physical activity and stroke.
520 $a These goals were addressed using the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) cohort, comprised of 15,792 participants age 45 to 64 years at baseline. Physical activity was measured by the modified Baecke questionnaire at the initial examination (1987-89) and 6 years later (1993-95). Over the 6-year period, participation in any sport or exercise increased among African Americans (+7.0%) while declining among Whites ($- $2 .6%). Changes in sport and leisure scores generally increased with higher education or income for African American and White men and women. Individuals retiring during the follow-up period were more likely to increase their leisure activity as compared to those continuing to work. These data can be used to target specific groups more likely to change activity or more likely to require intervention, depending on the interventional strategy.
520 $a Among 15,371 individuals without a history of stroke, over an average of 7.1 years of follow-up 264 incident stroke events occurred of which 220 were ischemic strokes. The hazard ratio for ischemic stroke comparing the highest to the lowest quartile of total activity was 0.64 (95% confidence interval 0.42, 0.97) adjusting for age, gender, race, center, and education. Other measures of physical activity were generally associated with lower stroke risk, although many did not reach statistical significance. Further adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors attenuated the associations. These findings indicate that among adults physical activity generally reduces stroke risk and efforts to improve activity patterns are needed at both the individual and population level.
