Research conducted at the University of Gothenburg shows that the physical activities we do as we go about our lives, at work or in the home, aren't enough to protect us from having a stroke. However, exercising in our free time and using active modes of transport are associated with a decreased risk of stroke.

Background Peak oxygen pulse (O 2 pulse=oxygen consumption/heart rate) is calculated by the product of stroke volume (SV) and oxygen extraction. We propose that the slope of the O 2 pulse curve may be more reflective of SV during exercise. It has been shown to be reduced in patients with a Fontan circulation.

Human and animal studies have demonstrated the mechanisms and benefits of aerobic exercise for both cardiovascular and neurovascular health. Aerobic exercise induces neuroplasticity and neurophysiologic reorganization of brain networks, improves cerebral blood flow, and increases whole-body VO2peak (peak oxygen consumption).
