"textContent": "A new analysis of more than 400,000 UK adults has found that easy-to-collect measures of physical health, particularly how fast someone walks, can significantly improve predictions of mortality risk. This finding was especially strong for people already living with long-term health conditions. The study, carried out by a team of researchers at the University of Leicester, has been published in Mayo Clinic Proceedings.",
