She has become the state, she is power itself, rallying the nation to fight the Armada, toying with the lives of courtiers and lovers, dreaming of immortality even as physical mortality mocks her.
Our search strategy included terms for exercise interventions (exercise OR physical activity), mortality outcomes (mortality OR death OR survival), and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (randomized OR meta-analysis) in the title, abstract, or keywords (latest search 11 December 2012).
This search included terms for exercise interventions (exercise OR physical activity), mortality outcomes (mortality OR death OR survival), and Cochrane Collaboration's sensitivity and precision maximising terms for randomised controlled trials (latest search 27 May 2013).
Previous studies have suggested the relationship between physical function, mortality, and autonomic nervous activity in frail elderly and that maintaining sympathetic nervous activity might lead to improved physical function and mortality in the elderly population.
Although this might be expected to translate into improved recovery of physical function, mortality and length of stay obtained 60 days after enrolment did not differ between groups [14].
Many studies present a consistent picture that adversity in early life is linked to: poor adult mental and physical health, mortality, anti-social and criminal behaviour, substance abuse and poor literacy and academic achievement.
For example, one review revealed that most included studies found no significant intervention-control group differences in client satisfaction, physical functioning, mortality, or quality of life [ 54].
In addition, higher levels of social support could lead to reduced risk of mental disorders, physical disease, mortality and improved quality of life [ 12– 12].
Although this might be expected to translate into improved recovery of physical function, mortality and length of stay obtained 60 days after enrolment did not differ between groups [ 14].
Inverse associations between leisure-time physical activity and mortality were strongest for respiratory mortality compared with those for cancer or cardiovascular mortality in participants older than 35 years.
