TLDR
In this article, the authors quantify the effect of physical inactivity on these major non-communicable diseases by estimating how much disease could be averted if inactive people were to become active and to estimate gain in life expectancy at the population level.About:

Cost effectiveness of a multi-component school-based physical activity intervention targeting adolescents: the ‘Physical Activity 4 Everyone’ cluster randomized trial
Rachel Sutherland,Penny Reeves,Elizabeth Campbell,David R. Lubans,Philip J. Morgan,Nicole Nathan,Luke Wolfenden,Anthony D. Okely,Anthony D. Okely,Karen Gillham,Lynda Davies,John Wiggers +11 more
TL;DR: PA4E1 is a cost effective intervention for increasing the physical activity levels and reducing unhealthy weight gain in adolescence, a period in which physical activity typically declines.

Raising the Priority of Lifestyle-Related Noncommunicable Diseases in Physical Therapy Curricula.
Elizabeth Dean,Alison M. Greig,Sue Murphy,Robin Roots,Nadine Nembhard,Anne Rankin,Lesley Bainbridge,Joseph Anthony,Alison M. Hoens,S. Jayne Garland +9 more
TL;DR: An example of how epidemiologically informed and evidence-based best health care practices may be systematically integrated into physical therapy curricula to maximize patient/client health and conventional physical therapy outcomes is provided.

Testing Self-Report Time-Use Diaries against Objective Instruments in Real Time:
Jonathan Gershuny,Teresa Harms,Aiden R. Doherty,Emma Thomas,Karen Milton,Paul Kelly,Charlie Foster +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of diary data with camera and accelerometer records strongly supports the use of diary methodology at both the aggregate (sample) and individual levels, providing evidence that time-use data could be used to complement physical activity questionnaires for providing population-level estimates of physical activity.

TL;DR: The utility of zebrafish as a robust model for studying the effects of metabolic disorders on the central nervous system is reinforced, highlighting the evolutionary conserved adverse effects of hyperglycemia on neurogenesis and brain healing in zebra fish.

Disentangling Race, Poverty, and Place in Disparities in Physical Activity.
Armani M. Hawes,Genee S. Smith,Emma E. McGinty,Caryn N. Bell,Kelly Bower,Thomas A. LaVeist,Thomas A. LaVeist,Darrell J. Gaskin,Roland J. Thorpe +8 more
TL;DR: Individual poverty and neighborhood poverty were associated with decreased odds of being physically active among both whites and blacks, and the need for future research to determine specific elements of the social context that drive disparities is suggested.

Effect of potentially modifiable risk factors associated with myocardial infarction in 52 countries (the INTERHEART study): case-control study
Salim Yusuf,Steven Hawken,Stephanie Ôunpuu,Tony Dans,Alvaro Avezum,Fernando Lanas,Matthew J. McQueen,Andrzej Budaj,Prem Pais,John Varigos,Liu Lisheng +10 more
TL;DR: Abnormal lipids, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, abdominal obesity, psychosocial factors, consumption of fruits, vegetables, and alcohol, and regular physical activity account for most of the risk of myocardial infarction worldwide in both sexes and at all ages in all regions.

TL;DR: With or without consideration of hypertension, cigarette smoking, extremes or gains in body weight, or early parental death, alumni mortality rates were significantly lower among the physically active than among less active men.

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic literature search was conducted for observational cohort studies using MEDLINE (1966 to December 31, 2008) and EMBASE (1980 to December 30, 2008), which reported associations of baseline cardiorespiratory fitness with CHD events, CVD events, or all-cause mortality in healthy participants.
