#Cancer treatment generates several adverse psychological & physical symptoms. Amongst #breastcancer survivors, resistance training, regardless of training volume can be an effective buffer to these symptoms, improving overall quality of life doi.org/10.1123/jpah.2… 🆓 for 3mnths

The findings from this prospective cohort study indicate that device-measured #PhysicalActivity is inversely associated with #BreastCancer in all women. @S_parrasoto @CraigTumblety @Rezende_LFM @jill_p_pell @carloscelism

Please RT! I am recruiting PhD and MS students to join the Physical Activity and Lifetime Wellness Lab @UNCGKin in Fall 2023. Our lab uses ecological momentary assessment (#EMA) methods to better understand physical activity & sedentary behavior! See flyer ⬇️⬇️ for details

Today, I'm excited to announce the publication of my new book, Belonging:  The Science of Creating Connection and Bridging Divides.  wwnorton.com/books/97813240…

The US National Plan for Physical Activity now includes a new sector! Military settings. Join us for a Congressional briefing-Physical Activity and National Security-to learn more. 18 July 1:00 p.m. (Eastern US time) More information and registration: conta.cc/3RrNzw3

Much needed meta-analyses on reactviity in device-based measures of health behaviors (mainly physical activity). @SBMDigitalHlth @isbnpa_emh

Presenting at SBM 2022 on Social Isolation, Loneliness, and CVD among Older Civilian and Veteran Women

Depression during the pandemic was associated with cognitive decline among older women; women with cognitive dysfunction less likely to practice safe hygiene against #COVID19, reports @TheDrAladdin & coauthors in Journal of Gerontology: Medical Sciences. academic.oup.com/biomedgerontol…

Four hours of routine activities like housework & showering reduced #heartdisease risk among senior women according to a study in @JAHA_AHA. All movement counts towards disease prevention, said author @SteveNguyenUCSD. #HeartMonth #Aging #PhysicalActivity go.ucsd.edu/3HcIGAt

A study of 57,825 postmenopausal women found social isolation and #loneliness were separately associated with higher risk for incident #CardiovascularDisease, with greater risk in those with both social isolation & loneliness. ow.ly/VEgS50HTWRN

With Drs. @natgolasz, @JohnBellettiere, and colleagues.

Social isolation and loneliness are independently associated with an 11% to 16% higher risk for #CVD among older #women, according to research published in @JAMANetworkOpen @natgolasz @JohnBellettiere and team #CardioTwitter #HeartMonth #WomensHealth ja.ma/3rCPMK1

Loneliness and social isolation are sometimes thought to be similar, but are only mildly related (r=.21). Our study led by @natgolasz showed that loneliness and social isolation were both related to heart disease. Women with both had the highest risk. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Study of ~58K older women found social isolation and loneliness are independently associated with an 11% to 16% higher risk for CVD healio.com/news/cardiolog… #cardiovasculardisease #loneliness #CVD ❤️‍🩹 #SDOH @JohnBellettiere @natgolasz

Talking to cardiologists today about impact of loneliness on risk of cardiovascular disease Latest research shows in women >65 loneliness is *associated* with *relative* risk ⬆️ of 13-27% Perhaps community assets like @parkrunUK can make a difference🤔 jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Many lonely older women die of a broken heart and lockdowns have increased the risk: talker.pub/3AX8Rte #lonely #loneliness #isolation @JAMANetworkOpen @UCSanDiegoSPH #seniors @natgolasz #Covid_19 #lockdown #Heartbreak

If there was ever a screaming advert for social prescribing, it would be this! Every cardiovascular clinician should be thinking broadly about our patients health! Thanks @natgolasz @JAMA_current for shedding light on this! @ELoPE_Barts @NASPTweets jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

ICYMI: “Social isolation and loneliness ... are distinct social factors and our study showed that both factors are associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease among older women,” @JohnBellettiere @NatGolasz #Cardiotwitter @healiowomen healio.com/news/cardiolog…
