A nursing research team conducted a study on 500 elderly patients to examine the relationship between physical activity levels and diastolic blood pressure. The study found a statistically significant negative correlation between the number of hours spent in light physical activity per week and the patient’s diastolic blood pressure, with a correlation coefficient (r = -0.25 ) and a p-value of ( p = 0.04 ). What can be concluded from this finding? A. Elderly patients who engage in less physical activity will have lower diastolic blood pressure. B. There is a moderate negative relationship between hours of physical activity and diastolic blood pressure in elderly patients. C. The number of hours spent in physical activity does not affect the diastolic blood pressure of elderly patients. D. Engaging in more physical activity causes a decrease in diastolic blood pressure in elderly patients.
