P4409Cardiorespiratory fitness is inversely associated with the inflammatory status in the general population

Background/Introduction Low-grade systemic chronic inflammation is a major risk factor for cardiometabolic diseases. Higher physical activity has athero- and cardioprotective effects, potentially through its anti-inflammatory properties. However, the relation between resting inflammatory status and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in population-based settings remains to be elucidated. While previous research has shown inverse associations between...
