Consenso español de salud física del paciente con depresión

2014

Comorbidity between depression and physical illnesses is very common and has a significant impact on the health and management of the patient. With the support of the Sociedades Espanolas de Psiquiatria y Psiquiatria Biologica, and Sociedad Espanola de Medicos de Atencion Primaria (SEMERGEN) a consensus was prepared on physical health in patients with depression and is summarized in the present work. The literature review highlighted the high frequency of cardiovascular and endocrine-metabolic disorders in patients with depression such as diabetes and obesity, thus making the primary and secondary prevention recommendations for patients with cardiovascular or metabolic risk applicable to pa…

THERAPEUTIC AND COLATERAL EFFECTS OF 25-HYDRXYCHOLECAICI FEROL IN VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY

1974

Vitamin D polar metabolite, 25–HCC has been used in 2 infant groups whose ages range from 0–18 months. In the 1st group of 15 infants, all of them suffered from rickets, clinically, biochemistry and radiologically and no prophylactic vitamin D administration could be demonstrated. The control group (15 infants too) was admitted with similar diseases but no one suffered from rickets. Routine determinations for metabolic assesment of Ca phosphoric metabolism were perforaed in plasma and in 240. urine collections, prior and after 25–HCC adBinietration. The rickets group received 20 mcg/day, orally for 20 days and the control 10mcg/day in the same way. The biochemical study demonstrated that bo…

Physical activity compensates for increased mortality risk among older people with poor muscle strength

2006

The aim of the study was to determine whether habitual physical activity can compensate for the increased mortality risk among older people with poor muscle strength. Mortality was followed up for 10 years after laboratory examination in 558 community dwelling 75- and 80-year-old men and women. Maximal isometric strength of five muscle groups was measured and tertile cut-off points were used to categorize participants. Participants, who reported moderate physical activity for at least 4 h a week, were categorized as physically active and the others as sedentary. High muscle strength and physical activity both protected from mortality, but their effect was not additive. Within each muscle st…

Fundamental movement skills and physical fitness as predictors of physical activity: A 6-year follow-up study

2015

The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which fundamental movement skills and physical fitness scores assessed in early adolescence predict self-reported physical activity assessed 6 years later. The sample comprised 333 (200 girls, 133 boys; M age = 12.41) students. The effects of previous physical activity, sex, and body mass index (BMI) were controlled in the main analyses. Adolescents’ fundamental movement skills, physical fitness, self-report physical activity, and BMI were collected at baseline, and their self-report energy expenditure (metabolic equivalents: METs) and intensity of physical activity were collected using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire …

Behaviour-change interventions in primary care: Influence on nutrition and on the metabolic syndrome definers

2011

The purpose of this paper was to examine whether interventions influenced patients' (i) consumption of fish; whole grain products; fruits and vegetables; (ii) overall nutrition, that is, the three former as an index; and (iii) clinical outcomes in terms of metabolic syndrome definers. A questionnaire was delivered to adult patients entering the nine health centres on November 2006 (n = 1211). During the year the ward personnel conducted intervention on patients with unhealthy habits. The 12-month follow up was conducted by mailings. Also clinical data of pre- and post-intervention values of metabolic syndrome definers were collected. For the analyses, intervention was divided into brief (≤ …

The relevance for Public Health of the mid-term and interim analyses of seasonal influenza vaccination effectiveness

2019

Worldwide, influenza is commonly recognized as a respiratory virus that causes a high number of deaths every year, especially among elderly adults and people with chronic illnesses. In order to reduce morbidity and mortality, many countries have implemented, in the last decades, universal influenza vaccination programs with special attention on groups at increased risk of developing the disease, such as pregnant women, children aged 6–59 months, elderly adults and individuals with specific chronic medical conditions. In real-world conditions, observational (nonrandomized) studies on vaccine effectiveness (VE) could measure,the risk reduction of contracting a disease and are considered the g…

Altered atrial restitution dynamics and refractoriness in metabolic syndrome due to up-regulation of potassium repolarizing currents increases suscep…

2021

Abstract Background Metabolic alterations, such as Metabolic Syndrome (MS), describe an association of factors including diabetes, hypertension, obesity and dyslipidemia, linked to higher risk and prevalence of overall cardiovascular disease, arrhythmogenesis and sudden cardiac death. Obese and diabetic patients have shown an increased risk for developing atrial fibrillation (AF). However, underlying mechanisms are not understood. Purpose To study the effects of MS and obesity remodeling in atrial restitution dynamics, frequency-dependent adaptation, refractoriness and its potential susceptibility to AF. Methods Electrophysiological experimental data from High-fat (HF-O, standard rabbit cho…
