ObjectiveTo determine the association between cardiorespiratory fitness and sedentary behavior, independent of exercise activity.Patients and MethodsWe included 2223 participants (aged 12-49 years; 1053 females [47%]) without known heart disease who had both cardiovascular fitness testing and at least 1 day of accelerometer data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003-2004. From accelerometer data, we quantified bouts of exercise as mean minutes per day for each participant. Sedentary time was defined as less than 100 counts per minute in mean minutes per day. Cardiorespiratory fitness was derived from a submaximal exercise treadmill test. Multivariable-adjusted linear regression analyses were performed with fitness as the dependent variable. Models were stratified by sex, adjusted for age, body mass index, and wear time, and included sedentary and exercise time.ResultsAn additional hour of daily exercise activity time was associated with a 0.88 (0.37-1.39; P<.001) metabolic equivalent of task (MET) higher fitness for men and a 1.37 (0.43-2.31; P=.004) MET higher fitness for women. An additional hour of sedentary time was associated with a −0.12 (−0.02 to −0.22; P=.03) and a −0.24 (−0.10 to −0.38; P<.001) MET difference in fitness for men and women, respectively.ConclusionAfter adjustment for exercise activity, sedentary behavior appears to have an inverse association with fitness. These findings suggest that the risk related to sedentary behavior might be mediated, in part, through lower fitness levels. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo analyze the influence of early valve operation on mortality in patients with left-sided infective endocarditis (IE).Patients and MethodsA multicenter cohort study was carried out between 1990 and 2010. Data from consecutive patients with definite IE and possible left-sided IE were collected. Propensity score matching and adjustment for survivor bias were used to control for confounders. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality.ResultsA total of 1019 patients with a mean age of 61 years (interquartile range, 47-71 years) were included. Early surgical treatment was performed in 417 episodes (40.9%). By propensity score, we matched 316 episodes: 158 who underwent early surgical treatment and 158 who did not (medical treatment group). In-hospital mortality and late mortality were lower in the surgically treated group (26.6% vs 41.8%; absolute risk reduction [ARR], −15.2%; P=.004 and 29.7% vs 46.2%; ARR, −16.5%; P=.002, respectively). Operation was independently associated with a lower risk of in-hospital mortality (odds ratio, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.22-0.79; P=.007). Operation was associated with reduced mortality in patients with paravalvular complications (ARR, −40.5%), severe heart failure (ARR, −32%), and native valve endocarditis (ARR, −17.8%).ConclusionThis study supports the benefit of surgical treatment in patients with left-sided IE carried out during the initial phase of hospitalization, especially in patients with moderate or severe heart failure and paravalvular extension of infection. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo examine the association of heart rate (HR) responses at rest, during exercise, and after exercise with incident hypertension (HTN) in men.Participants and MethodsA total of 10,418 healthy normotensive men without abnormalities on electrocardiography or a history of myocardial infarction, stroke, cancer, or diabetes underwent a maximal exercise test and were followed up for incidence of HTN. Heart rate reserve was defined as the maximal HR minus resting HR. Heart rate recovery was defined as HR 5 minutes after the exercise test.ResultsDuring a mean follow-up of 6 years, there were 2831 cases of HTN. Compared with men who had lower HR reserve, the risk of incident HTN was significantly lower for men with higher HR reserve (hazard ratio, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.74-0.95 for the highest quartile vs the lowest quartile of HR reserve; P=.002) when adjusted for age, baseline examination year, smoking, heavy drinking, body mass index, resting blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose levels, and cardiorespiratory fitness. Compared with men who had higher HR recovery, the risk of incident HTN was significantly lower for men with lower HR recovery (hazard ratio, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.80-0.99 for quartile 3 vs highest quartile; P=.04) after adjusting for the aforementioned confounders. However, the overall linear trend for HR recovery was not significant (P=.26).ConclusionThe risk of HTN decreased in men with higher HR reserve. Therefore, HR reserve may be considered as a useful exercise parameter for predicting the risk of HTN in men. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine whether elevated serum polyclonal free light chain (FLC) levels predict mortality in a population of individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Patients and MethodsFrom January 2, 2006, through July 31, 2007, we recruited a cohort of 848 people with CKD who were not receiving renal replacement therapy and did not have monoclonal gammopathy. We measured serum kappa FLC and lambda FLC isotype levels to determine combined FLC (cFLC) levels. The cohort was prospectively followed up for a median of 63 months (interquartile range, 0-93 months). Cox regression analysis was performed to determine variables predictive of mortality.ResultsHigh cFLC levels were an independent risk factor for death (hazard ratio [HR], 2.71; 95% CI, 1.98-3.70; P<.001). Other independent risk factors were age (HR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.52-2.10; P<.001), South Asian ethnicity (HR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.14-0.64; P=.02), preexisting cardiovascular disease (HR, 1.59; 95% CI, 1.09-2.31; P=.02), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.00-1.28; P=.04). Neither estimated glomerular filtration rate nor albuminuria was an independent risk factor for death.ConclusionHigh cFLC levels independently predict mortality in people with CKD. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of body composition as a function of lean mass index (LMI) and body fat (BF) on the correlation between increasing body mass index (BMI; calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the height in meters squared) and decreasing mortality, which is known as the obesity paradox.Patients and MethodsWe retrospectively assessed 47,866 patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (≥50%). We calculated BF by using the Jackson-Pollock equation and LMI using (1 − BF) × BMI. The population was divided according to the sex-adjusted BMI classification, sex-adjusted LMI classification, and sex-adjusted BF tertiles. The population was analyzed by using multivariate analysis for total mortality over a mean follow-up duration of 3.1 years by using the National Death Index, adjusting for left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular mass index, age, sex, and relative wall thickness.ResultsIn the entire population, higher BMI was narrowly associated (hazard ratio [HR], 0.99; P<.001) with lower mortality. The higher LMI group was clearly protective (HR, 0.71; P<.001), whereas BF tertile was associated with lower mortality only if no adjustment was made for LMI (HR, 0.87; P<.001 without LMI; HR, 0.97; P=.23 with LMI). In the lean patients, low BMI was clearly associated with higher mortality (HR, 0.92; P<.001) and lower BF tertile was associated with lower mortality only if no adjustment was made for LMI (HR, 0.80; P<.001 without LMI; HR, 1.01; P=.83 with LMI). The underweight patients stratified by BF seemed to have an increased mortality (HR, 1.91; 95% CI, 1.56-2.34) that was independent of LMI. However, in obese patients, both BMI (HR, 1.03; P<.001) and BF (HR, 1.18; P=.003) were associated with higher mortality, even after adjusting for LMI, which remained protective (HR, 0.57; P<.001) independently of BF.ConclusionBody composition could explain the inverse J shape of the mortality curve noted with increasing BMI. Body fat seems to be protective in this cohort only if no adjustment was made for LMI, although being underweight stratified by BF seems to be an independent risk factor. Lean mass index seems to remain protective in obese patients even when BMI is not. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo study the effect on maternal weight gain of a supervised light- to moderate-intensity exercise–based intervention performed from the ninth week of pregnancy.Participants and MethodsA total of 962 healthy pregnant women were randomly assigned to a standard care or exercise intervention group conducted between September 1, 2007, and January 31, 2011. The intervention included light- to moderate-intensity aerobic and resistance exercises performed 3 days a week (50-55 minutes per session). Excessive gestational weight gain was calculated on the basis of the 2009 Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommendations. Gestational body weight gain was calculated on the basis of the weight measured at the first prenatal visit (fifth to sixth weeks of gestation) and weight measured at the last visit to the clinic before delivery. Women were categorized into normal weight or overweight or obese.ResultsWomen in the intervention group gained less weight (adjusted mean difference, 1.039 kg; 95% CI, 0.534-1.545 kg; P<.001) and were less likely to gain weight above the IOM recommendations (odds ratio, 0.625; 95% CI, 0.461-0.847) compared with those in the standard care group. The main treatment effects according to body mass index category were that normal weight women in the intervention group gained less weight (adjusted mean difference, 1.393 kg; 95% CI, 0.813-1.972 kg; P<.001) and were less likely to gain weight above the IOM recommendations (odds ratio, 0.508; 95% CI, 0.334-0.774) than normal weight women who received standard care. No significant treatment effect was observed in overweight or obese women.ConclusionSupervised exercise of light to moderate intensity can be used to prevent excessive gestational weight gain, especially in normal weight women.Trial registrationclinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01790347 相似文献

ObjectiveTo address clinical concern regarding the use of inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) and the risk for pneumonia, particularly among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma.Patients and MethodsA multicentered prospective cohort of patients admitted to the hospital from March 1, 2009, through August 31, 2009, with pneumonia or another risk factor for acute respiratory distress syndrome was analyzed to determine the risk for pneumonia requiring hospitalization among patients taking ICSs. The adjusted risk (odds ratio [OR]) for developing pneumonia because of ICSs was determined in a multiple logistic regression model.ResultsOf the 5584 patients in the cohort, 495 (9%) were taking ICSs and 1234 (22%) had pneumonia requiring hospitalization. In univariate analyses, pneumonia occurred in 222 (45%) of the patients on ICSs vs 1012 (20%) in those who were not (OR, 3.28; 95% CI, 2.71-3.96; P<.001). After adjusting in the logistic regression model, prehospital ICS use was not significantly associated with pneumonia in the whole cohort (OR, 1.20; 95% CI, 0.93-1.53; P=.162), among the subset of 589 patients with COPD (OR, 1.40; 95% CI, 0.95-2.09; P=.093), among the 440 patients with asthma (OR, 1.07; 95% CI, 0.61-1.87; P=.81), nor among the remaining 4629 patients without COPD or asthma (OR, 1.32; 95% CI, 0.88-1.97; P=.179).ConclusionWhen adjusted for multiple confounding variables, ICS use was not substantially associated with an increased risk for pneumonia requiring admission in our cohort. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo perform a meta-analysis of cohort studies aimed at providing an accurate overview of mortality in elite athletes.Patients and MethodsWe reviewed English-language scientific articles available in Medline and Web of Science databases following the recommendations of the Meta-analyses Of Observational Studies in Epidemiology group. We searched for publications on longevity and professional or elite athletes (with no restriction on the starting date and up to March 31, 2014).ResultsTen studies, including data from a total of 42,807 athletes (707 women), met all inclusion criteria. The all-cause pooled standard mortality ratio (SMR) was 0.67 (95% CI, 0.55-0.81; P<.001) with no evidence of publication bias (P=.24) but with significant heterogeneity among studies (I2=96%; Q=224.46; P<.001). Six studies provided data on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and 5 on cancer (in a total of 35,920 and 12,119 athletes, respectively). When only CVD was considered as a cause of mortality, the pooled SMR was 0.73 (95% CI, 0.65-0.82; P<.001) with no evidence of bias (P=.68) or heterogenity among studies (I2=38%; Q=8.07; P=.15). The SMR for cancer was 0.60 (95% CI, 0.38-0.94; P=.03) with no evidence of bias (P=.20) despite a significant heterogeneity (I2=91%; Q=44.21; P<.001).ConclusionThe evidence available indicates that top-level athletes live longer than the general population and have a lower risk of 2 major causes of mortality, namely, CVD and cancer. 相似文献

ObjectiveEstablish reference values of cardiorespiratory fitness applicable to the general, untrained spinal cord injury (SCI) population.DesignData were retroactively obtained from 12 studies (May 2004 to May 2012).SettingAn institution-affiliated applied physiology research laboratory.ParticipantsA total of 153 men and 26 women (age, 18–55y) with chronic SCI (N=179) were included. Participants were not involved in training activities for 1 or more months before testing and were able to complete a progressive resistance exercise test to determine peak oxygen consumption (Vo2peak).InterventionsNot applicable.Main Outcome MeasurePercentile ranking (poor<20%; fair; 20%–40%; average, 40%–60%; good, 60%–80%; excellent, 80%–100%) used to establish reference values.ResultsReference cardiorespiratory fitness values based on functional classification as paraplegic or tetraplegic were established (paraplegic: median, 16.0mL·kg−1·min−1; range, 1.4–35.2mL·kg−1·min−1; tetraplegic: median, 8.8mL·kg−1·min−1; range, 1.5–21.5mL·kg−1·min−1) for untrained men and women. For the primary outcome measure (Vo2peak), persons with paraplegia had significantly higher values than did persons with tetraplegia (P<.001). Although men had higher values than did women, these differences did not reach significance (P=.256). Regression analysis revealed that motor level of injury was associated with 22.3% of the variability in Vo2peak (P<.001), and an additional 8.7% was associated with body mass index (P<.001). No other measure accounted for additional significant variability.ConclusionsEstablished reference fitness values will allow investigators/clinicians to stratify the relative fitness of subjects/patients from the general SCI population. Key determinants are motor level of injury and body habitus, yet most variability in aerobic capacity is not associated with standard measures of SCI status or demographic characteristics. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo systematically review the medical literature and comprehensively summarize clinical research done on rehabilitation with a novel portable and noninvasive electrical stimulation device called the cranial nerve noninvasive neuromodulator in patients suffering from nervous system disorders.Data SourcesPubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews from 1966 to March 2013.Study SelectionStudies were included if they recruited adult patients with peripheral and central nervous system disorders, were treated with the cranial nerve noninvasive neuromodulator device, and were assessed with objective measures of function.Data ExtractionAfter title and abstract screening of potential articles, full texts were independently reviewed to identify articles that met inclusion criteria.Data SynthesisThe search identified 12 publications: 5 were critically reviewed, and of these 5, 2 were combined in a meta-analysis. There were no randomized controlled studies identified, and the meta-analysis was based on pre-post studies. Most of the patients were individuals with a chronic balance dysfunction. The pooled results demonstrated significant improvements in the dynamic gait index postintervention with a mean difference of 3.45 (95% confidence interval, 1.75–5.15; P<.001), Activities-specific Balance Confidence scale with a mean difference of 16.65 (95% confidence interval, 7.65–25.47; P<.001), and Dizziness Handicap Inventory with improvements of −26.07 (95% confidence interval, −35.78 to −16.35; P<.001). Included studies suffered from small sample sizes, lack of randomization, absence of blinding, use of referral populations, and variability in treatment schedules and follow-up rates.ConclusionsGiven these limitations, the results of the meta-analysis must be interpreted cautiously. Further investigation using rigorous randomized controlled trials is needed to evaluate this promising rehabilitation tool for nervous system disorders. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo examine whether racial disparities in survival exist among black, Hispanic, and Asian patients compared with white patients with clinically localized prostate cancer (CLPC) after adjustment for the effects of treatment.Patients and MethodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with CLPC diagnosed from January 1, 1995, through December 31, 2003, as documented in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry. Treatment-stratified, risk-adjusted Cox proportional hazards models were constructed.ResultsDuring the study period, CLPC was diagnosed in 294,160 patients. Of these patients, 123,850 (42.1%) underwent surgery and 101,627 (34.5%) underwent radiotherapy, whereas 68,683 (23.3%) received no treatment. Overall 5-year and 10-year survival rates for Asians (85.6% and 67.6%, respectively), Hispanics (85.9% and 69.0%, respectively), and whites (83.9% and 65.7%, respectively) were higher than for blacks (81.5% and 61.7%, respectively) (P<.001). Prostate cancer–specific survival also varied significantly by race (P<.001). A risk-adjusted model stratified by primary treatment modality revealed that blacks had worse overall survival than whites (hazard ratio, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.33-1.41; P<.001), whereas Asians had better survival compared with whites (hazard ratio, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.76-0.83; P<.001). After the effects of treatment were accounted for, Hispanics had similar overall survival compared with whites (hazard ratio, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.94-1.01; P=.10).ConclusionBlacks with CLPC have poorer survival than whites, whereas Asians have better survival, even after risk adjustment and stratification by treatment. These data may be relevant to US regions with large underserved populations that have limited access to health care. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo analyze a large cohort of patients who underwent exercise testing and also report sex differences in other exercise heart rate (HR) parameters to determine whether separate sex-based equations to predict peak HR are indicated.Patients and MethodsPatients aged 40 to 89 years who performed treadmill exercise tests (Bruce protocol) from September 21, 1993, to December 20, 2010, were included. Patients with cardiovascular disease or taking HR-attenuating drugs were excluded. After analyses on preliminary cohort, peak HR–modifying factors were eliminated to obtain a pure data set. Analysis of variance was used to test difference in HR responses by sex with age adjustment.ResultsA total of 37,010 patients (67.3% men) were included in the preliminary cohort. Men had higher peak HR (166±17 vs 163±16 beats/min [bpm]; P<.001), HR reserve (90±19 vs 84±17 bpm; P<.001), and HR recovery (19±8 vs 18±9 bpm; P<.03). Poor exercise capacity, current smoking, diabetes, and obesity had significant peak HR–lowering effects (all P<.001). In a pure cohort of 19,013 patients (51.3% of full cohort) without these factors, regression lines approximated more closely the traditional line of 220 – age. For men, the regression line in our final cohort was peak HR = 220 – 0.95 × age. For women, both slope (0.79 bpm/y) and intercept (210 bpm) were still substantially different from those obtained with the traditional formula.ConclusionThe HR responses to exercise are different in men and women. The HR response of men was close to that obtained with the traditional formula, but peak HR in women had a lower intercept and decreased more slowly with age. A separate formula for peak HR in women appears to be appropriate. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo prospectively study the effects of an incentivized exercise program on physical activity (PA), quality of life (QOL), and burnout among residents and fellows (RFs) in a large academic medical center.Participants and MethodsIn January 2011, all RFs at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota (N=1060), were invited to participate in an elective, team-based, 12-week, incentivized exercise program. Both participants and nonparticipants had access to the same institutional exercise facilities. Regardless of participation, all RFs were invited to complete baseline and follow-up (3-month) assessments of PA, QOL, and burnout.ResultsOf the 628 RFs who completed the baseline survey (59%), only 194 (31%) met the US Department of Health and Human Services recommendations for PA. Median reported QOL was 70 on a scale of 1 to 100, and 182 (29%) reported at least weekly burnout symptoms. A total of 245 individuals (23%) enrolled in the exercise program. No significant differences were found between program participants and nonparticipants with regard to baseline demographic characteristics, medical training level, PA, QOL, or burnout. At study completion, program participants were more likely than nonparticipants to meet the Department of Health and Human Services recommendations for exercise (48% vs 23%; P<.001). Quality of life was higher in program participants than in nonparticipants (median, 75 vs 68; P<.001). Burnout was lower in participants than in nonparticipants, although the difference was not statistically significant (24% vs 29%; P=.17).ConclusionA team-based, incentivized exercise program engaged 23% of RFs at our institution. After the program, participants had higher PA and QOL than nonparticipants who had equal exercise facility access. Residents and fellows may be much more sedentary than previously reported. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the association between coffee consumption and mortality from all causes and from cardiovascular disease.Patients and MethodsData from the Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study representing 43,727 participants with 699,632 person-years of follow-up were included. Baseline data were collected by an in-person interview on the basis of standardized questionnaires and a medical examination, including fasting blood chemistry analysis, anthropometry, blood pressure, electrocardiography, and a maximal graded exercise test, between February 3, 1971, and December 30, 2002. Cox regression analysis was used to quantify the association between coffee consumption and all-cause and cause-specific mortality.ResultsDuring the 17-year median follow-up, 2512 deaths occurred (804 [32%] due to cardiovascular disease). In multivariate analyses, coffee intake was positively associated with all-cause mortality in men. Men who drank more than 28 cups of coffee per week had higher all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 1.21; 95% CI, 1.04-1.40). However, after stratification based on age, younger (<55 years old) men and women showed a significant association between high coffee consumption (>28 cups per week) and all-cause mortality after adjusting for potential confounders and fitness level (HR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.30-1.87 for men; and HR, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.26-3.59 for women).ConclusionIn this large cohort, a positive association between coffee consumption and all-cause mortality was observed in men and in men and women younger than 55 years. On the basis of these findings, it seems appropriate to suggest that younger people avoid heavy coffee consumption (ie, averaging >4 cups per day). However, this finding should be assessed in future studies of other populations. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo test whether greater exercise is associated with progressively lower mortality after a cardiac event.Patients and MethodsWe used Cox proportional hazard analyses to examine mortality vs estimated energy expended by running or walking measured as metabolic equivalents (3.5 mL O2/kg per min per day or metabolic equivalent of task-h/d [MET-h/d]) in 2377 self-identified heart attack survivors, where 1 MET-h/d is the energy equivalent of running 1 km/d. Mortality surveillance via the National Death Index included January 1991 through December 2008.ResultsA total of 526 deaths occurred during an average prospective follow-up of 10.4 years, 376 (71.5%) of which were related to cardiovascular disease (CVD) (International Statistical Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision codes I00-I99). CVD-related mortality compared with the lowest exercise group decreased by 21% for 1.07 to 1.8 MET-h/d of running or walking (P=.11), 24% for 1.8 to 3.6 MET-h/d (P=.04), 50% for 3.6 to 5.4 MET-h/d (P=.001), and 63% for 5.4 to 7.2 MET-h/d (P<.001) but decreased only 12% for ≥7.2 MET-h/d (P=.68). These data represent a 15% average risk reduction per MET-h/d for CVD-related mortality through 7.2 MET-h/d (P<.001) and a 2.6-fold risk increase above 7.2 MET-h/d (P=.009). Relative to the risk reduction at 7.2 MET-h/d, the risk for ≥7.2 MET-h/d increased 3.2-fold (P=.006) for all ischemic heart disease (IHD)–related mortalities but was not significantly increased for non–IHD-CVD, arrhythmia-related CVD, or non–CVD-related mortalities.ConclusionRunning or walking decreases CVD mortality risk progressively at most levels of exercise in patients after a cardiac event, but the benefit of exercise on CVD mortality and IHD deaths is attenuated at the highest levels of exercise (running: above 7.1 km/d or walking briskly: 10.7 km/d). 相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine the population-based incidence of leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV).Patients and MethodsThis is a retrospective population-based study of all Olmsted County, Minnesota, residents with a skin biopsy–proven diagnosis of LCV from January 1, 1996, through December 31, 2010.ResultsA total of 84 patients (mean age at diagnosis, 48.3 years) with newly diagnosed skin biopsy–proven LCV (43 women and 41 men) were identified. The incidence rate (age and sex adjusted to the 2000 US white population) was 4.5 per 100,000 person-years (95% CI, 3.5-5.4). The incidence of LCV increased significantly with age at diagnosis (P<.001) and did not differ between female and male patients. Subtypes of LCV were cutaneous small-vessel vasculitis (CSVV), 38 patients (45%); IgA vasculitis, 25 (30%); urticarial vasculitis, 10 (12%); cryoglobulinemic vasculitis, 3 (4%); and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody–associated vasculitis, 8 (10%). LCV was idiopathic in 29 of 38 patients with CSVV (76%) and 24 of 25 patients with IgA vasculitis (96%). Thirty-nine of 84 patients (46%) had systemic involvement, with the renal system most commonly involved (17 of 39 [44%]). Twenty-four of 80 patients (30%) with follow-up data available had recurrent disease. Compared with the Minnesota white population, observed survival in the incident LCV cohort was significantly poorer than expected (P<.001), including the subset of patients with idiopathic CSVV (P=.03).ConclusionThe incidence of LCV was higher than that reported in previously published studies. Idiopathic LCV was more common in our population-based cohort than that described previously. Overall survival was significantly poorer (P<.001) and should be explored further in future studies. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo describe the prevalence of osteoporosis and its association with functional electrical stimulation (FES) use in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI)-related paralysis.DesignRetrospective cross-sectional evaluation.SettingClinic.ParticipantsConsecutive persons with SCI (N=364; 115 women, 249 men) aged between 18 and 80 years who underwent dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) examinations.InterventionsNot applicable.Main Outcome MeasurePrevalence of osteoporosis defined as DXA T score ≤−2.5.ResultsThe prevalence of osteoporosis was 34.9% (n=127). Use of FES was associated with 31.2% prevalence of osteoporosis compared with 39.5% among persons not using FES. In multivariate adjusted logistic regression analysis, FES use was associated with 42% decreased odds of osteoporosis after adjusting for sex, age, body mass index, type and duration of injury, Lower Extremity Motor Scores, ambulation, previous bone fractures, and use of calcium, vitamin D, and anticonvulsant; (adjusted odds ratio [OR]=.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], .35–.99; P=.039). Duration of injury >1 year was associated with a 3-fold increase in odds of osteoporosis compared with individuals with injury <1 year; (adjusted OR=3.02; 95% CI, 1.60–5.68; P=.001).ConclusionsFES cycling ergometry may be associated with a decreased loss of bone mass after paralysis. Further prospective examination of the role of FES in preserving bone mass will improve our understanding of this association. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo systematically examine discontinuation rates with new US Food and Drug Administration–approved oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in patients with various indications for long-term anticoagulation.Patients and MethodsPoor adherence to medications is considered a potential and frequent cause of treatment failure. We searched the PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, EMBASE, EBSCO, Web of Science, and CINAHL databases for articles published from January 1, 2001, through September 15, 2013. The following Medical Subject Heading terms and/or keywords were used for our database searches: rivaroxaban, dabigatran, apixaban, new oral anticoagulants, oral thrombin inhibitors, and oral factor Xa inhibitors. Articles in English that focused on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing NOACs (apixaban, dabigatran, and rivaroxaban) with conventional therapy or placebo were abstracted. Independent extraction of relevant data was performed by 2 authors. The primary end point of interest was discontinuation due to all causes. Other end points of interest were discontinuation due to adverse events, consent withdrawal, and nonadherence.ResultsEighteen RCTs including a total of 101,801 patients were included for analysis. Total study drug discontinuation rates were not statistically different with NOACs in comparison to pharmacologically active comparators for treatment of venous thromboembolism/pulmonary embolism (risk ratio [RR], 0.91; 95% CI, 0.74-1.13; P=.40) and for NOACs in comparison to warfarin and aspirin for prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (RR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.87-1.17; P=.92). In contrast, in acute coronary syndromes, total study drug discontinuation with NOACs was significantly higher than with placebo (RR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.07-1.83; P=.01). Overall discontinuations were comparable to those with active comparators.ConclusionStudy drug discontinuations with NOACs were not significantly different from those with conventional drugs in treatment of venous thromboembolism/pulmonary embolism and prevention of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation but were worse in acute coronary syndromes as noted in evidence from contemporary RCTs. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo examine the prognostic value of exercise capacity in patients with nonrevascularized and revascularized coronary artery disease (CAD) seen in routine clinical practice.Patients and MethodsWe analyzed 9852 adults with known CAD (mean ± SD age, 61±12 years; 69% men [n=6836], 31% black race [n=3005]) from The Henry Ford ExercIse Testing (FIT) Project, a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent physician-referred stress testing at a single health care system between January 1, 1991, and May 31, 2009. Patients were categorized by revascularization status (nonrevascularized, percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], or coronary artery bypass graft [CABG] surgery) and by metabolic equivalents (METs) achieved on stress testing. Using Cox regression models, hazard ratios for mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), and downstream revascularizations were calculated after adjusting for potential confounders, including cardiac risk factors, pertinent medications, and stress testing indication.ResultsThere were 3824 all-cause deaths during median follow-up of 11.5 years. In addition, 1880 MIs, and 1930 revascularizations were ascertained. Each 1-MET increment in exercise capacity was associated with a hazard ratio (95% CI) of 0.87 (0.85-0.89), 0.87 (0.85-0.90), and 0.86 (0.84-0.89) for mortality; 0.98 (0.96-1.01), 0.88 (0.84-0.92), and 0.93 (0.90-0.97) for MI; and 0.94 (0.92-0.96), 0.91 (0.88-0.95), and 0.96 (0.92-0.99) for downstream revascularizations in the nonrevascularized, PCI, and CABG groups, respectively. In each MET category, the nonrevascularized group had similar mortality risk as and higher MI and downstream revascularization risk than the PCI and CABG surgery groups (P<.05).ConclusionExercise capacity was a strong predictor of mortality, MI, and downstream revascularizations in this cohort. Furthermore, patients with similar exercise capacities had an equivalent mortality risk, irrespective of baseline revascularization status. 相似文献
