Combined association of aerobic and muscle strengthening activity with mortality in individuals with hypertension.

ABSTRACT: Evidence on the association between meeting both aerobic physical activity (PA) and muscle-strengthening activity (MSA) guidelines with mortality in individuals with hypertension is scarce. We included 34,990 adults from the 2007 to 2013 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, linking mortality follow-up data until 2019. Adherence to PA guidelines was assessed based on the current PA guidelines using a self-reported questionnaire and categorized as follows: meeting MSA only, aerobic PA only, both MSA and aerobic PA, or neither. Associations of hypertension and adherence to PA guidelines with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality were examined using Cox proportional hazard models. Over 9.2 years, 1948 participants died from any cause and 419 from CVD. Meeting
