dc.description.abstractABSTRACT: The prevalence of hypertension has increased with the rise in the elderly population, and high blood pressure is a major cause of cardiovascular disease. Physical activity is an important strategy for preventing cardiovascular disease. The study aimed to explore the association between physical activity and cardiovascular risk indicators in community-dwelling older adults with hypertension.This study is a secondary data analysis of a prospective longitudinal study using data from the Elderly Cohort Database of the National Health Insurance Service in South Korea between 2002 and 2013. Participants included 10,588 older adults (≥60 years) with hypertension. Data assessing self-reported physical activity and directly measured blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, body mass index, and total cholesterol levels throughout the 12-year study were extracted from the original database and analyzed. Participants were categorized into 4 groups based on the reported changes in physical activity over time: Group I (Maintaining No Physical Activity Group), II (Changing from No Physical Activity to Physical Activity Group), III (Changing from Physical Activity to No Physical Activity Group), and IV (Maintaining Physical Activity Group). Cox proportional hazard model was used to confirm the risk of cardiovascular indicators over time in each group.Participants' mean age was 64.2 years in the initial year of 2002. The number of participants in Groups I, II, III, and IV was 4032, 2697, 1919, and 1940, respectively. Group IV showed a significant decline in risk for uncontrolled hypertension compared to Group I (hazard ratio = 0.87, 95% confidence interval [0.800-0.948]). Group II showed a significant decrease in risk for uncontrolled diabetes compared to Group I (hazard ratio = 0.94, 95% confidence interval [0.888-0.999]).The findings indicated that physical activity is a significant factor associated with indicators of cardiovascular risk in older people with high blood pressure. Healthcare providers should be aware of the importance of older adults' physical activity and encourage them to perform and maintain it steadily for better long-term cardio-metabolic outcomes.-
