Sedentary behavior is a significant independent risk factor for CVD, and reducing sedentary time is associated with a lower CVD risk. Enhancing public awareness of the hazards of sedentary behavior and implementing effective interventions, especially for the elderly, may contribute to improved cardiovascular health.
