Because they cherry picked participants stroke survivors have no clue how this applies to them. But if you want to extrapolate on your own, this means your doctor has to get you recovered enough to stay active.
Sedentary behavior and cardiovascular disease in older women: The OPACH Study
Circulation — Bellettiere J, et al. | February 21, 2019
In this study, researchers
investigated whether patterns of sedentary time are linked to a higher
risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) among 5,683 women (aged 63-97
years) from the Objective Physical Activity and Cardiovascular Health
(OPACH) Trial. Study participants were followed up for up to 4.9 years
for CVD events, had no history of myocardial infarction or stroke, and
wore accelerometers for 4-7 days for activity monitoring. They estimated
hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for CVD by using Cox regression models
adjusted for covariates and for potential mediators. A total of 545 CVD
events were recorded over 19,350 person-years. After adjusting for
covariates, women with the highest vs the lowest quartile of sedentary
time were found to have a greater risk for CVD. In addition, women who
had both high sedentary time and long mean bout durations had
significantly higher CVD risk vs women with low sedentary time and
shorter mean bout durations.
