Accelerometer measured physical activity and the incidence of cardiovascular disease: Evidence from the UK Biobank cohort study
<br><strong>Background<br></strong> Higher levels of physical activity (PA) are associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, uncertainty exists on whether the inverse relationship between PA and incidence of CVD is greater at the highest levels of PA...
