To examine inactivity-associated medical expenditures in adults, controlling for frequency of feeling downhearted/blue.
Using the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey (N=12,250), expenditures were analyzed by comparison and multivariate models. Expenditures were updated to 2003 dollars.
Medical expenditure was 354 dollars (t=3.80, P<0.01) lower for active than inactive persons: 6.1% of the expenditure (133 dollars in 1987, 429 dollars in 2003) was inactivity associated. The total inactivity-associated expenditure was near 12 billion dollars in 1987 (38 billion dollars in 2003).
Medical expenditure increased with frequency of feeling downhearted/blue and was higher for inactive than active people.
在控制情绪低落/忧郁频率的情况下，研究成年人中与缺乏运动相关的医疗支出。
利用1987年国家医疗支出调查（N = 12250），通过比较和多变量模型分析支出情况。支出已更新为2003年的美元价值。
与缺乏运动的人相比，经常运动的人的医疗支出低354美元（t = 3.80，P < 0.01）；6.1%的支出（1987年为133美元，2003年为429美元）与缺乏运动有关。1987年与缺乏运动相关的总支出接近120亿美元（2003年为380亿美元）。
医疗支出随着情绪低落/忧郁频率的增加而增加，且缺乏运动的人的医疗支出高于经常运动的人。
