Sedentary behavior associated with reduced medial temporal lobe thickness in middle-aged and older adults.

Sedentary behavior associated with reduced medial temporal lobe thickness in middle-aged and older adults.

Atrophy of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) occurs with aging, resulting in impaired episodic memory. Aerobic fitness is positively correlated with total hippocampal volume, a heavily studied memory-critical region within the MTL. However, research on associations between sedentary behavior and MTL su...
