@LSaugman @rlopezbu @jcalatayud_ Hi Lau, the present results should be interpreted together with the previous studies that we include in the paper as one study newer gives all the answers. Regarding limitations, we discuss nine principal limitations at the end of the paper (open access): cambridge.org/core/journals/…

@LarsLAndersen @rlopezbu @jcalatayud_ Hi Lars. Love your work and use it in everyday clinical practise. Is your statement "prevent diagnosed depression" correct for this kind of study. You see an association but it has limitations as discussed in the paper ?

Regular physical activity can help prevent diagnosed depression: 40 minutes of physical activity per day is a good compromise between amount and effectiveness. Our research paper with 74,715 adults followed during 8 years: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Trends in depression in the European population aged 50 years and older is now online in AJE. From 2004 to 2022, the prevalence of depression in Europe decreased significantly by 5.9%. Find more👉academic.oup.com/aje/advance-ar…

Optimal dose and pattern of physical activity to reduce risk of depression. Our new study conducted with data from the UK Biobank is now online.👇 cambridge.org/core/journals/…
