Abstract:
:The association of physical activity to plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels was examined cross-sectionally in 634 elderly, postmenopausal women whose mean age was 70.7 years. Leisure-time physical activity in kilocalories per week was assessed by the Paffenbarger Questionnaire, a composite index of sports/recreation, stair climbing, and walking. Subjects were categorized by tertile of kilocalories per week from total physical activity, number of flights of stairs climbed, and number of blocks walked. After adjustment for age, body mass index, education, and oral estrogen use, no significant differences were noted in total cholesterol, high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), HDL2-C, HDL3-C, low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), or triglycerides across tertile of total activity or number blocks walked. Total cholesterol was significantly different across tertile of number of flights of stairs climbed (P < 0.05), and only a borderline association was noted with LDL-C (P < 0.08). The study suggests that leisure-time physical activity, as measured by the Paffenbarger Questionnaire, is not associated with a favorable lipid profile in elderly, postmenopausal women. Failure to find an association may reflect the relatively small number of women who engaged in moderate- or high-intensity activity.
