Table 2 Odds ratios for mild cognitive impairment and population attributable fractions for physical activity stratified by gender

From: The burden of mild cognitive impairment attributable to physical inactivity in Colombia

 

Male

Female

Odds ratios for mild cognitive impairment (95% confidence interval)

 Physically active, walking between 9 and 20 blocks at least three times per week

0.51 (0.45, 0.58)

0.69 (0.61, 0.78)

 Physically active, taking part in vigorous sport or exercise at least three times a week

0.61 (0.51, 0.74)

0.68 (0.57, 0.82)

Population attributable fractions for physical activity (95% confidence interval)

 Physically active, walking between 9 and 20 blocks at least three times per week

20% (16%, 24%)

15% (10%, 20%)

 Physically active, taking part in vigorous sport or exercise at least three times a week

26% (16%, 35%)

21% (11%, 30%)

  1. The odds ratios for mild cognitive impairment and the population attributable fractions for physical activity were estimated while adjusting for age, height, education, current individual income, civil status, cigarette smoking, and alcohol drinking
