Physical activity and health-related quality of life in Korean postmenopausal women with and without chronic diseases: a population-based study using the KNHANES 2016-2020 database

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to investigate the relationship between physical activity (PA) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in Korean postmenopausal women, particularly considering the impact of chronic diseases. Their findings indicate that higher levels of PA, especially light-to-moderate activities like walking, are associated with improved HRQoL, with more pronounced benefits observed in women with chronic conditions. This underscores the importance of promoting appropriate PA and reducing sedentary behavior to enhance well-being in this population.
