Main Outcome Measure Physician counseling to begin or to continue to exercise. Results Of 9299 respondents, 34% reported being counseled about exercise at their last visit. After adjustment for other sociodemographic and clinical factors, women were slightly more likely to be counseled, with an adjusted odds ratio (AOR) of 1.15 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.29). Physicians counseled older patients (>30 years) more often than younger patients ; those aged 40 to 49 years were counseled most often (AOR, 1.71 [95% CI, 1.34-2.20]). (...) |
