AnnotationIncreasing exercise among older people to improve function and to prevent or decrease disability is widely promoted in developed countries. This review of the literature for the years 1985 to 2000 is based on searches of Medline and Best Evidence databases, and seeks to evaluate the degree to which existing scientific evidence supports these claims.
