Abstract

Executive attention as a frontal domain ability that is effective in potentially blocking distracting information, reconciling conflicts among simultaneous attentional demands, and regulating impulsive behavior may be impaired in individuals with obesity and cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aimed (i) to explore the presence of selected cognitive (global cognitive impairment, sensitivity to interference, and attention) and psychological (quality of life, depression, anxiety, and impulsivity) dimensions and (ii) to examine the interactive relationship between attentional dyscontrol—both as a psychological and as a cognitive measure—and the above-mentioned variables in a sample of patients with CVD attending a cardiac rehabilitation program across different body mass index (BMI) levels. Clinical information of 104 patients with CVD was retrospectively collected. Participants were classified into three groups according to their BMI as follows: normal weight (NW = 30), overweight (OW = 19), and obese (OB = 55). Individuals with CVD and a higher BMI showed problems in controlling executive attention—through both neuropsychological and behavioral measures. Specifically, OB patients demonstrated reduced sensitivity to cognitive interference, lower capabilities in divided attention during visual-tracking tasks, and greater impulsivity compared to NW patients. This behavioral characteristic was also found to be correlated with higher levels of anxiety and depression and a lower quality of life. Implications for cognitive rehabilitation were discussed to offer directions for better management of patients with CVD and obesity.

Abstract

Objective: Exercise capacity (EC) is a well-established predictor of cardiovascular health. It is notoriously influenced by several factors, but the independent effect of psychological well-being (PWB) on EC has not yet been explored. The present study aims to investigate (1) whether PWB is an independent predictor of EC over and above selected demographic, behavioral, and biomedical parameters in a sample of CR patients with obesity and (2) whether PWB is a stronger predictor of EC than the other variables. Methods: Data from 1968 patients were collected at the time of their inclusion in a cardiac rehabilitation (CR) program and retrospectively analyzed in a cross-sectional study. Since cardiorespiratory parameters defined in normal weight populations differ from those of their obese counterparts, an ad hoc validated formula taking body mass index (BMI) into consideration was used to predict EC. Results: A multiple regression analysis revealed left ventricular eject fraction (LVEF) to be the strongest predictor of EC, followed by PWB, type 2 diabetes (DM), smoking status, atrial fibrillation (AF), and education. Bayesian evaluation of informative hypotheses corroborated LVEF as the best predictor of EC, and confirmed the superiority of PWB over and above DM and smoking status in influencing EC. Conclusion: These findings strengthen the link between psychological and physical health, suggesting a better PWB is associated with greater EC. Prompt screening of a patient’s mood and readiness to perform an active lifestyle would therefore enhance the long-term health benefits of CR.

Abstract

Severely obese patients affected by two or more chronic conditions which could mutually influence their outcome and disability can be defined as "complex" patients. The presence of multiple comorbidities often represents an obstacle for being admitted to clinical settings for the treatment of metabolic diseases. On the other hand, clinical Units with optimal standards for the treatment of pathological conditions in normal-weight patients are often structurally and technologically inadequate for the care of patients with extreme obesity. The aims of this review paper were to review the intrinsic (anthropometrics, body composition) and extrinsic (comorbidities) determinants of disability in obese patients and to provide an up-to-date definition of hospital-based multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs for severely obese patients with comorbidities. Rehabilitation of such patients require a here-and-now multidimensional, comprehensive approach, where the intensity of rehabilitative treatments depends on the disability level and severity of comorbidities and consists of the simultaneous provision of physiotherapy, diet and nutritional support, psychological counselling, adapted physical activity, specific nursing in hospitals with appropriate organizational and structural competences.

Abstract

In this paper, the Italian Society of Cardiac Rehabilitation and Prevention (GICR) presents the third survey on the status of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in Italy. The Italian SurveY on carDiac rEhabilitation 2008 (ISYDE 2008) is a multicenter, observational study aimed at identifying the number and characteristics of Italian CR facilities, both in terms of health operators and interventions. Clinical records of all patients consecutively discharged within the whole network--composed of up to 200 CR units--from January 28 to February 10, 2008 will also be reviewed for diagnosis of admission, comorbidities, rehabilitation programs, and drug therapy, in order to obtain a snapshot of current implementation strategies in daily clinical practice.

Abstract

Psychological interventions in cardiac rehabilitation programs appear relevant in as much they significantly contribute to achieve the goals of rehabilitation, to reduce the risk of relapses and to improve patients' adherence to therapy. To this aim, motivational interviewing (MI) has shown promising results in improving motivation to change and individuals' confidence in their ability to do so.

Abstract

Severely obese patients affected by two or more chronic conditions which could mutually influence their outcome and disability can be defined as "complex" patients. The presence of multiple comorbidities often represents an obstacle for being admitted to clinical settings for the treatment of metabolic diseases. On the other hand, clinical Units with optimal standards for the treatment of pathological conditions in normal-weight patients are often structurally and technologically inadequate for the care of patients with extreme obesity. The aims of this review paper were to review the intrinsic (anthropometrics, body composition) and extrinsic (comorbidities) determinants of disability in obese patients and to provide an up-to-date definition of hospital-based multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs for severely obese patients with comorbidities. Rehabilitation of such patients require a here-and-now multidimensional, comprehensive approach, where the intensity of rehabilitative treatments depends on the disability level and severity of comorbidities and consists of the simultaneous provision of physiotherapy, diet and nutritional support, psychological counselling, adapted physical activity, specific nursing in hospitals with appropriate organizational and structural competences.

Abstract

The purposes of this observational pre-post study were twofold: 1- to evaluate psychological health in obese patients with ischemic heart disease at admission to cardiac rehabilitation (CR) and 2 - to examine the effectiveness of a 4-week CR residential program in improving obese patients' psychological well-being at discharge from CR. A sample of 177 obese patients completed the Psychological General Well-Being Inventory (PGWBI) at admission to the CR program and at discharge. The equivalence testing method with normative comparisons was used to determine the clinical significance of improvements after having established that baseline mean scores on the PGWBI scales were significantly lower than normal means. Results show that patients scored equally or better than norms on many PGWBI dimensions at admission to CR but scored significantly worse on Global Score, Vitality and Self-control. At discharge, mean scores that were impaired at baseline returned to normal levels at the more conservative equivalence interval. A 4-week CR program was thus effective in improving obese patients' psychological well-being. The equivalence testing method allowed to establish the clinical significance of such improvement.

Abstract

Background and Aims: Heart rate (HR) response to exercise has not been fully described in the obese. We wanted to study the differences between obese and non-obese patients in HR behavior during an exercise stress test and to determine whether these differences influence exercise capacity., Methods and Results: We studied 554 patients (318 females) who underwent a treadmill exercise test. All subjects were in sinus rhythm. Patients with ischemic heart disease, with reduced ejection fraction and patients taking drugs that interfere with HR were excluded. The population included 231 patients with BMI<30 kg/m(2) (group 1), 212 patients who were unfit and obese (group 2) and 111 patients who were trained obese (group 3). Resting HR was similar in the various groups. Peak HR, HR recovery and chronotropic index were lower in obese subjects, regardless of their fitness level. Multivariate analysis showed that HR related variables were associated with age, BMI, height, hypertension and various pharmacologic treatments, while exercise capacity was strongly dependent on HR behavior, as well as on sex, age, BMI and diabetes., Conclusion: Obese subjects have a marked impairment of HR behavior during exercise and in the recovery period, and the blunted increase in HR is the most important factor that influences exercise capacity.

Abstract

Background and Aim: The effects of combined physical exercise and a hypocaloric diet on left ventricular function in obese subjects without heart disease are not well defined and have never been studied with the tissue Doppler technique. The purpose of our study was to describe the modification of left ventricular systolic and diastolic functions after a short period of physical exercise and a hypocaloric diet in obese patients., Methods and Results: Fifteen patients (10 females and 5 males) aged 29.7+/-6.1 years with uncomplicated obesity (mean body mass index=41.4+/-5.5 kg/m(2)) were subjected to a low calorie diet and physical exercise. Systolic and diastolic functions were evaluated by Doppler and tissue Doppler echocardiography. After 3 weeks echocardiographic and conventional Doppler measurements were unchanged, while Sa increased (0.109+/-0.019 vs 0.118+/-0.016 m/s) and Ea decreased (0.162+/-0.029 vs 0.147+/-0.022 m/s, P=0.044) resulting in a decrease in Ea/Aa (1.66+/-0.53 vs 1.40+/-0.28, P=0.033) and an increase in E/Ea (5.65+/-1.00 vs 6.35+/-1.21, P=0.038)., Conclusion: Physical exercise and a hypocaloric diet in obese healthy subjects result in an improvement of a TDI index of systolic function and a slight reduction in early diastolic velocity of mitral annulus.

Abstract

Background and Aim: To evaluate whether chronic treatment with beta-blockers influences resting energy expenditure (REE) and weight loss after a period of diet and physical activity in obese hypertensive patients., Methods and Results: Seventy-eight obese hypertensive patients (24 males and 54 females) aged 53.7 +/- 11.1 years with mean BMI of 42.4 +/- 5.8 kg/m2 were enrolled. Thirty-eight patients were using beta-blockers while 40 patients who had not received beta-blockers in the past 6 months were the control group. REE was measured with indirect calorimetric method. Total body fat mass, total body fat-free mass (FFM) and total body water (W) were determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis. Patients and controls underwent a structured physical training program and a hypocaloric diet for a period of 31.6 +/- 10.6 days. Measured REE in patients taking beta-blockers was 1818 +/- 309 kcal/24 h and 1853 +/- 348 kcal/24 h in patients not taking beta-blockers; p = non significant. Weight and BMI loss were similar between the two groups and were respectively -6.43 +/- 2.62 kg and -2.42 +/- 0.91 kg/m2 in the beta-blocker group and -7.49 +/- 3.10 kg, -2.78 +/- 1.03 kg/m2 in the non beta-blocker group. Body composition was similar in the two groups. In the comparison between patients treated with selective beta 1-adrenoceptors blockers and non selective beta-blockers we found a significant difference in REE (1704 +/- 283 vs 1974 +/- 278; p = 0.012) and in weight loss (-5.6 +/- 2.4 vs -7.5 +/- 2.7; p = 0.048) at the end of study., Conclusions: Beta-blockers are not associated with a lower REE in obese subjects compared to other antihypertensive treatment. Use of non selective beta-adrenergic blockers is associated with a higher REE and weight loss compared to use of selective beta 1-adrenergic blockers. Non selective beta-blockers could be indicated among first choice drugs in hypertensive severely obese subjects without contraindications to beta-blockade.
