Abstract in brief

This systematic review and meta-analysis examined how exposure to green spaces impacts mortality and cardiovascular health in older adults, finding that greater green space exposure is linked to lower risks of death and stroke.
The review analyzed 22 observational studies and found that increased greenness (measured by NDVI) significantly reduces all-cause mortality (HR around 0.99) and stroke mortality (HR around 0.77) in older populations.
The findings suggest that promoting more green spaces could be an effective public health strategy for preventing death and cardiovascular issues in the elderly.]
