“…Weekly walking activity was evaluated by standard questionnaire based on the International Physical Activity Questionnaires-short form (including how many days spent on walking at least 10 minutes at a time and walking duration time) [15,16]. In subgroup analysis, walking duration per day was classi ed into two categories: over 30 min/day and over 1 h/day, and walking days per week were categorized into < 4 and ≥ 4 days/week.…”

Background: The value of exercise is well-established for health promotion. Walking as the most common campaign in older people, is recommended to improve their cardiovascular health. However, the direct association between weekly walking activity and asymptomatic hypertensive mediated organ damage (HMOD) remains unclear.Methods: 2830 community-dwelling elderly subjects (over 65 years) in northern Shanghai were recruited from June 2014 to June 2018. Weekly walking activity was evaluated by standard questionnaire based on the International Physical Activity Questionnaires-short form (including walking duration per time and walking days per week). Within the framework of comprehensive cardiovascular examinations, HMOD, including left ventricular mass index (LVMI), peak transmitral pulsed Doppler velocity/early diastolic tissue Doppler velocity (E/Ea), carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), arterial plaque, creatinine clearance rate (CCR), urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR), carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) and ankle-brachial index (ABI), were all evaluated.Results: 1862 (65.8%) participants were enrolled in weekly walking activity, with 56.8 ± 36.8 min/day and a median of 6.71 days/week walking. Young elderly, fewer smokers, lower CIMT, lower cf-PWV, fewer abnormal ABI, lower prevalence of hypertension and coronary heart disease were observed in walking activity group. Similarly, pearson’s correlation analysis revealed that weekly walking activity was significantly correlated with elderly (age ≥ 70 years) and smoker. After adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors, weekly walking activity was only significantly associated with peripheral artery diseases in logistic regression analysis. Finally, only walking duration more than 30 min per time was related to arterial plaque in subgroup analysis of weekly walking acitivity (OR: 1.048, 95% CI: 1.002-1.095, P = 0.038).Conclusions: In the community-dwelling elderly Chinese, weekly walking activity seemed to be a way to encourage a healthy lifestyle for HMOD prevention and management, especially for vascular HMOD, irrespective of walking duration per time and walking days per week.Clinical Trial Registration: NCT02368938 (clinicaltrials.gov)

“…The walk moderately (2) group refers to those who walked for less than 30 minutes per day, 3 days to less than 5 days per week. The walk often (3) group refers to those who walked for 1 hour or longer per day, 5 days or more per week [20]. All variables, considered as inputs in the present study, were tested using the Mantel-Haenszel chi-squared test, which is appropriate for categorical data.…”

Objectives: It is generally reported that walking has a positive effect on knee joint pain. However, since previous studies have focused on small patient data and simple average comparisons, we proceed with more sophisticated empirical research using public data. Since the knee joint pain itself can be considered very important in terms of preventative medicine, we analyze that use of big data to identify its effect on knee joint pain. Methods: The present study used a logistic regression analysis and analyzed the effect of walking time on knee joint pain in the activities of daily living based on data from the 6 th 2013-2014 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Results: Smoking, Drinking and Sedentary time has no statistically signi cance on knee joint pain. And walking (moderate, high) has been shown to reduce the risk of knee joint pain. Conclusion: The results con rmed that walking time had a positive effect on the prevalence of knee joint pain. However, individuals with moderateintensity walking time and those with high-intensity walking time had different effects on preventing knee joint pain.

“…One of the most common musculoskeletal problems is low back pain, which affects people’s quality of life [ 1 ]. Non-specific low back pain is the main cause of back pain; however; low back pain is usually caused by disc herniation, lumbar stenosis, trauma, muscle strain, lumbar spondylosis, spine and kidney infections, certain cancers, endometriosis, arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis [ 2 , 3 ]. Results from a systematic review and meta-analysis on 41 studies have shown that the incidence of low back pain is about 25% among people who have experienced for the first time, without considering community or occupation [ 4 ].…”

Background Musculoskeletal disorders can reduce the quality of life and work capacity. The study assessed handgrip strength (HGS) in relation to low back pain and arthralgia in Kurdish men. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted using data from Ravansar non-communicable diseases (RaNCD) cohort study on 2164 men aged 35–65 years. HGS was measured using a hand-held hydraulic handgrip dynamometer. Low back pain, arthralgia, and joint stiffness were evaluated by the RaNCD cohort study physician using a standard questionnaire. Results The results showed that 21.39 and 24.58% of studied participants had low back pain and arthralgia, respectively. Among the participants with low back pain, 14.5% had back stiffness, and among those with arthralgia, 12.8% had joint stiffness. The mean of HGS in participants with arthralgia and back & joint stiffness was significantly less than those without these disorders (P < 0.001, P = 0.05, and P = 0.005, respectively). Multiple-adjusted OR and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for arthralgia and back and joint stiffness across muscle strength showed the HGS increase to be associated with a lower risk of arthralgia and back &joint stiffness, but not low back pain. Conclusions Higher HGS was associated with a lower risk of arthralgia and back & joint stiffness. However, there was no association between HGS and low back pain. Exercise and adherence to proper nutrition are suggested to enhance muscle strength in order to reduce musculoskeletal pain.
