Abstract
La falta de actividad física es considerada uno de los principales factores de riesgo de las enfermedades no transmisibles, contribuyendo sustancialmente a la carga mundial de morbilidad, mortalidad y discapacidad. En este contexto la OMS ha realizado una serie de recomendaciones, siendo en el caso de los adultos mayores de 65 años recomendable dedicar al menos 150 minutos por semana a realizar actividades físicas moderadas aeróbicas, o bien algún tipo de actividad física vigorosa aeróbica durante 75 minutos, o una combinación equivalente de actividades moderadas y vigorosas. La demencia es una de las enfermedades con mayor impacto actual en el ámbito socio-sanitario y económico, sin disponer de un tratamiento curativo, por lo que en los últimos años numerosos estudios se han centrado en el conocimiento de sus factores de riesgo. El objetivo principal de nuestro estudio es analizar si el riesgo de demencia incidente y de mortalidad en las personas que realizan actividad física sería menor respecto a aquellas con hábito sedentario en la cohorte NEDICES.
