Physical activity and the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm: a systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective studies

Abstract The association between physical activity and risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm has been inconsistent with some studies reporting a reduced risk while others have found no association. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective studies to quantify the association. Pub...
