Article Abstract
The present position paper focuses on screening individuals from the general population who are interested in engaging in leisure time physical activities. This document, which relies on the expert perspective of the Sports Cardiology Forum of the Israeli Heart Society, was created to equip attending physicians with essential tools for addressing such inquiries. Given that sudden death resulting from ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of mortality among individuals over 35 years old who participate in high-intensity sports, screening within this demographic aims to detect coronary disease and its risk factors. Regular physical activity is a crucial component of healthy living, with its benefits outweighing potential risks. Asymptomatic individuals planning to undertake light to moderate physical activity, even if they are at high risk for atherosclerotic disease, do not necessitate preparticipation evaluation.

The global surge in the population of people 60 years and older, including that in China, challenges healthcare systems with rising age-related diseases. To address this demographic change, the Aging Biomarker Consortium (ABC) has launched the X-Age Project to develop a comprehensive aging evaluation system tailored to the Chinese population. Our goal is to identify robust biomarkers and construct composite aging clocks that capture biological age, defined as an individual's physiological and molecular state, across diverse Chinese cohorts.

Beyond their classical functions as redox cofactors, recent fundamental and clinical research has expanded our understanding of the diverse roles of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) in signaling pathways, epigenetic regulation and energy homeostasis. Moreover, NAD and NADP influence numerous diseases as well as the processes of aging, and are emerging as targets for clinical intervention. Here, we summarize safety, bioavailability and efficacy data from NAD-related clinical trials, focusing on aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

Objective: This study investigates the mechanisms behind exercise capacity in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), focusing on central and peripheral components, as described by the Fick equation.
Methods: A cross-sectional study of 141 adults with T2DM was conducted, using cardiopulmonary exercise testing, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and exercise echocardiography. Participants with sufficient-quality NIRS data were stratified into tertiles based on percentage predicted VO₂peak.
