A sample of 97,844 men and women (aged 47.1 ± 17.7 yrs.; 46.6% male) recruited from general population, household-based surveys were followed up over mean [SD] 9.4 ± 4.5 years. Exposure measurements included self-reported physical activity, cigarette smoking, alcohol intake, and objective body mass index and waist to hip ratio. There were 9027 deaths, of which 14.1% were attributed to infectious diseases. Compared to physically inactive participants both insufficiently active (Hazard ratio = 0.61; 95% CI, 0.50, 0.75) and sufficiently active (at least 150 min/wk. moderate - vigorous activity) (0.60; 0.45, 0.78) was associated with reduced risk of infectious disease mortality in models mutually adjusted for other lifestyle factors. Ex-smokers and current smokers were at increased risk of infectious disease mortality compared with never smoker, with the strongest associations being observed for heavy smoking (>20 cigarettes/day) and pneumonia (3.30; 2.35, 4.63). Underweight was associated with increased risk of infectious disease mortality (3.65; 2.64, 5.06) compared with normal weight; the risk of viral infection was lower in overweight (0.56; 0.44, 0.72) and obesity (0.39; 0.26, 0.58). Central obesity was, however, related to higher risk of bacterial infections, but only in normal weight centrally obese participants (1.71; 1.10, 2.64). A physically active lifestyle and lifelong absence from cigarette smoking had protective associations against infectious disease mortality. Obesity has divergent associations dependent on peripheral and visceral fat depots, and the specific outcome. | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30844499/ | Finished.

15 | 7/21/2020 23:25:21 | James F Sallis | jsallis@ucsd.edu | University of California San Diego and Australian Catholic University, Melbourne | USA | Physical Activity as a COVID-19 Vaccine Adjuvant | Older adults generally have less-effective immune responses to vaccines, but this group is at the highest risk of dying from COVID-19. In one RTC, older adults randomized to moderate-intensity physical activity before and after influenza vaccines showed 30% to 100% more participants had a sufficient antibody response than those assigned to low-intensity flexibility exercise. (Woods et al., 2009) The study aim is to add a physical activity arm to vaccine trials to determine whether moderate-intensity physical activity improves immune responses to multiple candidate vaccines for COVID-19 among vulnerable populations. | Randomized controlled trials | More than 100 vaccines are being studied on an accelerated timeline. Among the unknowns are what level of antibodies is needed to protect people from being infected, and how antibody responses will vary across population subgroups, especially among groups with the highest risk: older age, underlying chronic conditions, and people of color. There is a time-limited opportunity to plan vaccine studies to include an arm to evaluate the impact of moderate-intensity physical activity on antibody responses. As a first step, phase 1 and phase 2 RTCs that assess safety and antibody efficacy could include 3 study arms that would determine the impact of physical activity on antibody responses: placebo, vaccine, vaccine plus physical activity. Though a physical activity arm could not be double-blinded, adding a third condition would not interfere with the primary comparison of vaccine vs placebo. A second step would require a 3-arm design for large phase 3 trials that determine effectiveness in reducing actual infection rates. It is most important to include a physical activity arm when studies target the high risk subgroups. It is not clear whether sufficient subsamples of high risk subgroups would be included in general-population vaccine studies, so smaller subgroup-specific studies may be needed. The physical activity interventions should be either supervised or monitored with electronic devices so adherence to the protocol could be verified. A major challenge would be convincing principal investigators of vaccine trials to include physical activity arms in their studies, because such studies would be more costly due to the larger sample sizes and implementing the intervention. However, the public health benefit could be great, because if large proportions of the population may not have sufficient antibody responses to prevent infections, the effectiveness of mass vaccinations could be compromised.
