“…By 2050, 71% of the population of Korea is expected to be aged 65 years or older [ 23 ]. Prolonged sitting time in the older population has become a major social issue because it causes various problems such as cardiovascular disease, sarcopenia, cognitive impairment, and mortality [ 8 , 10 ]. The reason for prolonged sitting time in the Korean elderly seems to be that more than 90% of them spend their leisure time watching TV or listening to the radio, and they often play sedentary Korean games such as hwatu, janggi, and baduk [ 18 ].…”

Several studies have found that prolonged sitting time leads to cognitive impairment, mobility limitation, increased risk of mortality, and reduced quality of life in older people [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. According to the 2015–2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the US, 20% of US older adults (aged ≥65 years) sat for at least eight hours a day, and 33% of US older adults sat for six to eight hours [ 11 ].…”

“…A este respecto, también es conveniente mencionar que, si bien la realización de ambos programas no se tradujo en mejoras significativas, sus efectos pudieran traducirse en una ralentización del proceso de involución que experimentan las personas mayores institucionalizadas con deterioro cognitivo moderado tanto en su función cognitiva 29,30 como en su nivel de autonomía e independencia funcional 31 . De todos modos, el no haber incluido una fase de seguimiento en el diseño de la investigación, así como la ausencia de un grupo control que no se ejercitase, impide confirmar esta hipótesis.…”

“…In addition, FD is more common among older people than in the rest of the population ( 13 , 14 ). A prevalence of FD among Mexican older adults (60 and older) of 26.9% has been reported for the basic activities of daily living (BADL), and 24.6% for the instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) ( 15 ).…”
