Effectiveness of the physical activity intervention program in the PREDIMED-Plus study: a randomized controlled trial
2018
[Background] The development and implementation of effective physical activity (PA) intervention programs is challenging, particularly in older adults. After the first year of the intervention program used in the ongoing PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea (PREDIMED)-Plus trial, we assessed the initial effectiveness of the PA component.
Efectos de la inhibición de la desacetilación de las histonas en el remodelado post-infarto del sustrato arritmogénico
2021
Se ha investigado, en un modelo de infarto crónico (seis semanas) en conejo, el efecto de un inhibidor de las desacetilasas de histonas, el ácido valproico, sobre la magnitud del miocardio infartado y sobre determinadas propiedades electrofisiológicas y mecánicas del miocardio ventricular. El modelo experimental de infarto ha sido desarrollado en conejos macho Nueva Zelanda, toracotomizados y anestesiados a los que se les ocluyó la arteria coronaria circunfleja (una hora) a mitad de su trayecto epicárdico, seguida de reperfusión. Tras seis semanas de evolución del proceso necrótico, se sacrificó a los conejos, se les extrajo el corazón y se ubicó en un sistema de perfusión tipo Langendorff,…
Baseline CHA 2 DS 2 ‐VASc score and prognosis in octogenarians with non‐ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome
2021
Background CHA2DS2-VASc Score is widely used to predict thromboembolic risk in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF). We sought to study if this score predicts outcomes in elderly patients with Non-ST segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes (NSTEACS). Methods The multicenter LONGEVO-SCA prospective registry included 532 unselected patients with NSTEACS aged ≥80 years. Data to calculate CHA2DS2-VASc Score were available in 523 patients (98.3%). They were classified according to CHA2DS2-VASc Score: group 1 (score ≤ 4), and 2 (5-9). We studied outcomes in terms of mortality or readmission at 6 months follow-up. Results A total of 266 patients (51%) had a high CHA2DS2-VASc Score (group 2). …
Vitamin D, precocious acute myocardial infarction, and exceptional longevity
2015
Recent studies have reported low circulating levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), the biologically active form of vitamin D, in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) [1], hypertension [2], carotid atherosclerosis [3], atrial fibrillation [4], and heart failure [5]. Moreover, vitamin D deficiency has been associated with all-cause mortality [6,7] and predicts adverse cardiac events in patients with established CVD [8] or after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) [9]. In turn, vitamin D supplementation improves the modulation of autonomic tone [10]. 4.638 JCR (2015) Q1, 24/124 Cardiac and cardiovascular systems UEM
Impact of psychosocial factors on cardiovascular morbimortality: a prospective cohort study
2014
[Background] Whilst it is well known that psychosocial determinants may contribute to cardiovascular diseases (CVD), data from specific groups are scarce. The present study aims to determine the contribution of psychosocial determinants in increasing the risk of cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction and stroke), and death from CVD, in a high risk adult population.
Novel association of the obesity risk-allele near Fas Apoptotic Inhibitory Molecule 2 (FAIM2) gene with heart rate and study of its effects on myocar…
2014
[Background] The Fas apoptotic pathway has been implicated in type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Although a polymorphism (rs7138803; G > A) near the Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2 (FAIM2) locus has been related to obesity, its association with other cardiovascular risk factors and disease remains uncertain.
Mitral Regurgitation and Prognosis After Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Very Old Patients.
2019
Background/Objetctives: Mitral regurgitation (MR)after an acute coronary syndrome is associated with a poor prognosis. However,the prognostic impact of MR in elderly patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardialinfarction (NSTEMI) has not been well addressed. Design: Prospective registry. Setting And Participants: The multicenter LONGEVO-SCA prospective registry included 532 unselected NSTEMI patients aged ≥80 years. Measurements: MR was quantified using echocardiography during admission in 497 patients. They were classified in two groups: significant (moderate or severe) or not significant MR (absent or mild). We evaluated the impact of MR status on mortality or readmission at 6 months…
Homocysteine and long-term recurrent infarction following an acute coronary syndrome.
2021
En Cardiology Journal. Gdańsk (Polonia) : Via Medica. Vol. 28, n. 4 (01 jul. 2021), pp. 598-606. ISSN 1897-5593. e-ISSN 1898-018X. Este artículo se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: https://journals.viamedica.pl/cardiology_journal/article/view/CJ.a2020.0170/52602 En este artículo de investigación también participan: Maria Marco, Teresa García-Ballester, Begoña Zorio, Eduardo Núñez, Francisco J. Chorro, Juan Sanchis y Julio Núñez. Background: There are no well-established predictors of recurrent ischemic coronary events after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Higher levels of homocysteine have been reported to be associated with an increased atherosclerotic burden. The primary endpoi…
Advanced interatrial block predicts new-onset atrial fibrillation and ischemic stroke in patients with heart failure: The “Bayes' Syndrome-HF” study
2018
Advanced interatrial block (IAB) is characterized by a prolonged (≥120 ms) and bimodal P wave in the inferior leads. The association between advanced IAB and atrial fibrillation (AF) is known as “Bayes' Syndrome”, and there is scarce information about it in heart failure (HF). We examined the prevalence of IAB and whether advanced IAB could predict new-onset AF and/or stroke in HF patients. Methods and results: The prospective observational “Bayes' Syndrome-HF” study included consecutive outpatients with chronic HF. The primary endpoints were new-onset AF, ischemic stroke, and the composite of both. A secondary endpoint included all-cause death alone or in combination with the primary endpo…
