What this means
Researchers are testing whether exercise can slow changes in the heart and blood vessels that come with age. The trial has not reported results, so it does not yet show whether exercise helps.

Registry summary
In ageing, deleterious alterations in cardiovascular (CV) structure and function increase risks of ageing-related cardiovascular disease (CVD). Investigators found that these CV alterations were associated with circulating serum metabolites, suggesting a metabolic basis to CV ageing. Investigators hypothesize that modification of these metabolites by intervention, such as exercise, may retard CV alterations and reduce CVD in ageing.
