Abstract BackgroundAerobic exercise is an effective physical exercise to promote human health and prevent diseases. It has been the focus of attention from all walks of life. Only by effectively grasping the key documents can we enter the forefront of relevant research fields.MethodsUsing the Web of ScienceTM core collection, 1,833 documents from the American aerobic exercise studies, which conducted scientific measurement and visual analysis using the CiteSpace? analysis softwareResultsAmerican aerobic research development of polynomial function growth, the main research focus in the university research institutions, formed the sports science dominated multidisciplinary group, research mainly focus on the cognitive improvement and heart function of cardio, aerobic exercise training and health, exercise risk, body composition and body load in the evolution of body load. In recent years, aerobic exercise research has been introduced to enhance human health, in the process of developing cardiovascular disease, strength training, exercise intensity, weight control, human inflammation, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, randomized controlled experiments and resistance resistance training gradually evolved into a new trend of aerobic exercise research in the United States.ConclusionsAerobic exercise research has been introduced to enhance human health, in the process of developing cardiovascular disease, strength training, exercise intensity, weight control, human inflammation, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, randomized controlled experiments and resistance resistance training gradually evolved into a new trend of aerobic exercise research in the United States.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevalence is known to be lower in Japan than in the United States. In this international cohort-comparative study, we compared CVD prevalence rates and risk factors in Fukuoka, Japan and in Framingham, United States. Using plasma samples obtained after an overnight fast from men and women in Fukuoka (n=1108) and age (median, 53 years), gender and menopausal status matched subjects in Framingham (n=1101), we measured plasma glucose, insulin, high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), small dense LDL-C (sdLDL-C), and triglycerides. Blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), use of medications, and history of CVD were also assessed. CVD prevalence rates were 2.1% and 1.0%, respectively, in Fukuoka men and women, and were more than 6 folder higher (both P<0.001) at 13.2% and 8.6%, respectively, in Framingham men and women. Median BMI, LDL-C, insulin levels and insulin resistance in men and women in Fukuoka were all significantly (P<0.01) lower than those in their Framingham counterparts. However the diabetes prevalence in Fukuoka men was significantly (P<0.01) higher than that observed in Framingham men, while female rates were similar, as were levels of systolic blood pressure. Smoking rates were lower in Fukuoka women, but were higher in Fukuoka men as compared to their Framingham counterparts. HDL-C and surprisingly sdLDL-C levels were significantly (P<0.001) higher in Fukuoka subjects than in Framingham subjects. Based on the results, the estimated 10 year risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, using the new American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association risk calculator, were 6.9% and 2.3%, respectively, for Framingham men and women, while these values for Fukuoka men and women were 7.4% and 1.7%, respectively. Only the risk estimates in women were significantly different (P<0.001). Our data are consistent with prior studies indicating that CVD prevalence rates in Japan are lower than those in the United States, and that CVD risk algorithms for the United States markedly overestimate CVD risk in Japan. The markedly lower levels of insulin and insulin resistance in Japanese subjects may account for some of the population differences in CVD prevalence and risk.

Objectives Immigrant adults tend to have better health than native-born adults despite lower incomes, but the health advantage decreases with length of residence. To determine whether immigrant adults have a health advantage over US-born adults in New York City, we compared cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors among both groups. Methods Using data from the New York City Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014, we assessed health insurance coverage, health behaviors, and health conditions, comparing adults ages ≥20 born in the 50 states or the District of Columbia (US-born) with adults born in a US territory or outside the United States (immigrants, following the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) and comparing US-born adults with (1) adults who immigrated recently (≤10 years) and (2) adults who immigrated earlier (>10 years). Results For immigrant adults, the mean time since arrival in the United States was 21.8 years. Immigrant adults were significantly more likely than US-born adults to lack health insurance (22% vs 12%), report fair or poor health (26% vs 17%), have hypertension (30% vs 23%), and have diabetes (20% vs 11%) but significantly less likely to smoke (18% vs 27%) (all P < .05). Comparable proportions of immigrant adults and US-born adults were overweight or obese (67% vs 63%) and reported CVD (both 7%). Immigrant adults who arrived recently were less likely than immigrant adults who arrived earlier to have diabetes or high cholesterol but did not differ overall from US-born adults. Conclusions Our findings may help guide prevention programs and policy efforts to ensure that immigrant adults remain healthy.
