Health benefits of pedestrian and cyclist commuting: evidence from the Scottish Longitudinal Study by Paul Kelly, David Walsh, Bruce Whyte, Zhiqiang Feng, Chris Dibben, Graham Baker, Ruth Dundas, Evangelia Demou, Catherine Friel

“…Individuals were followed-up between 2001 and 2018 through linkage to hospitalisation, death and prescription records. Cox proportional hazard models were used to compare cyclist and pedestrian commuters with non-active commuters for a range of health outcomes, controlling for pre-existing health conditions, and demographic and socioeconomic characteristics.Results Compared with non-active commuting, cyclist commuting was associated with lower all-cause mortality risk (HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.73), lower risk of any hospitalisation (HR 0.90, 95% CI 0.84 to 0.97), lower risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) hospitalisation (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.91) and of having a CVD prescription (HR 0.70, 95% CI 0.63 to 0.78), lower risk of cancer mortality (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.30 to 0.82) and cancer hospitalisation (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.59 to 0.98), and lower risk of having a prescription for mental health problems (HR 0.80, 95% CI 0.73 to 0.89). …”

In the multivariate Cox regression, baseline GDF-15(HR 1.053, 95% CI 1.007-1.100, P=0.022) and LAD (HR 1.124, 95% CI 1.011-1.250, P=0.030) were independent predictors of AF recurrence after RFCA. …”
