Abstract in brief

  • This study examined whether participating in sports during childhood and adolescence has lasting benefits on heart health in adulthood, specifically looking at how well the heart's autonomic control functions.
  • Researchers found that adults who practiced sports early in life showed improved heart rate variability measures (like SDNN and SD2), indicating better cardiac autonomic modulation, with these benefits persisting even if they didn't continue sports later in adolescence.
  • Overall, engaging in sports during childhood and/or adolescence is associated with positive long-term effects on heart health, highlighting the importance of early physical activity for lifelong cardiac benefits.]
