Device-measured physical activity, adiposity and mortality: a harmonised meta-analysis of eight prospective cohort studies.
2021
BackgroundThe joint associations of total and intensity-specific physical activity with obesity in relation to all-cause mortality risk are unclear.MethodsWe included 34 492 adults (72% women, median age 62.1 years, 2034 deaths during follow-up) in a harmonised meta-analysis of eight population-based prospective cohort studies with mean follow-up ranging from 6.0 to 14.5 years. Standard body mass index categories were cross-classified with sample tertiles of device-measured total, light-to-vigorous and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and sedentary time. In five cohorts with waist circumference available, high and low waist circumference was combined with tertiles of moderate-to-vigor…
Copenhagen consensus statement 2019: physical activity and ageing
2019
From 19th to 22nd November 2018, 26 researchers representing nine countries and a variety of academic disciplines met in Snekkersten, Denmark, to reach evidence-based consensus about physical activity and older adults. It was recognised that the term ‘older adults’ represents a highly heterogeneous population. It encompasses those that remain highly active and healthy throughout the life-course with a high intrinsic capacity to the very old and frail with low intrinsic capacity. The consensus is drawn from a wide range of research methodologies within epidemiology, medicine, physiology, neuroscience, psychology and sociology, recognising the strength and limitations of each of the methods. …

El hábito hace al monje: María/Marino, entre el engaño y la santidad
2020
Las santas travestidas representan uno los arquetipos más reconocibles de santidad femenina en la hagiografía tardo-antigua y bizantina. Entre el amplio abanico de ejemplos disponibles, que remontan a santa Tecla, tratamos la Vida de santa María/Marino, porque constituye un caso particularmente interesante para explorar tanto la versatilidad de la identidad de género como la estrecha relación entre impostura y santidad que suele observarse en las trayectorias vitales de este tipo de santas. Con este fin, analizamos narrativamente la vida griega de María/Marino, prestando especial atención al apego que demuestra hacia las personas de su entorno, el modo de vida que escoge y el mecanismo que …
