Studies had not yet overcome the most relevant barriers to physical activity (PA) adherence. An exercise referral scheme (ERS) with mechanisms promote social support might enhance adherence PA in long term.
Multiples estudios demuestran que determinados cambios en el estilo de vida son efi caces para mejorar la salud las personas y disminuir carga enfermedad1,2. Sin embargo, evidencia sobre mejor forma recomendar esos consultas atencion primaria (AP) es mas escasa controvertida3. Aunque grado cacia del consejo depende tipo cambio propuesto vida, estrategias cognitivo-conductuales han probado ser utiles abordaje estos cambios. Las intervenciones intensivas, mayor duracion, se asocian con...
There is a need to increase and maintain physical activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We assessed 12-month efficacy effectiveness of the Urban Training intervention on COPD patients. This randomised controlled trial ( NCT01897298 ) allocated 407 from primary hospital settings 1:1 usual care (n=205) or (n=202). consisted baseline motivational interview, advice walk urban trails designed for outdoor public spaces other optional components feedback,...
Background: The use of mobile phone apps for improving lifestyles has become generalized in the population, although little is still known about their effectiveness health. Objective: We evaluate effect adding an app to standard counseling on increased physical activity (PA) and adherence Mediterranean diet, 3 months after implementation. Methods: A randomized, multicenter clinical trial was carried out. total 833 participants were recruited six primary care centers Spain through random...
New technologies could facilitate changes in lifestyle and improve public health. However, no large randomized, controlled studies providing scientific evidence of the benefits their use have been made. The aims this study are to develop validate a smartphone application, evaluate effect adding tool standardized intervention designed adherence Mediterranean diet physical activity. An evaluation is also made modifying habits upon vascular structure function, therefore on arterial aging. A...
Healthy lifestyles may help to delay arterial aging. The purpose of this study is analyze the relationship physical activity and dietary pattern circadian blood pressure, central peripheral pulse wave velocity, carotid intima-media thickness biological markers endothelial dysfunction in active sedentary individuals without arteriosclerotic disease. Design: A cross-sectional multicenter with six research groups. Subjects: From subjects PEPAF project cohort, which 1,163 who were became active,...
To evaluate the effectiveness in primary care of a stepped smoking cessation intervention based on transtheoretical model change.Cluster randomized trial; unit randomization: basic (family physician and nurse who for same group patients); intention-to-treat analysis.All interested units (n = 176) that worked 82 centres belonging to Spanish Preventive Services Health Promotion Research Network 13 regions Spain.A total 2,827 smokers (aged 14-85 years) consulted centre any reason, provided...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Among traumatic injuries, spinal cord injuries (SCI) and brain (TBI) are of major importance because their epidemiological economic impact on society. The overall objective this study was to estimate the cost associated with people SCI TBI in Spain 2007. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A cost-of-illness analysis performed, considering perspective society, using a 1-year time horizon. Medical costs, adaptation material...
Objectives The use of brief screening tools to identify inactive patients is essential improve the efficiency primary care-based physical activity (PA) programs. However, current employment short PA questionnaires within Spanish care pathway unclear. This study evaluated validity version a Brief Physical Activity Assessment Tool (SBPAAT). Methods A validation was carried out EVIDENT project. convenience sample (n = 1,184; age 58.9±13.7 years; 60.5% female) completed SBPAAT and 7-day Recall...

Clinical study of second primary malignancies (SPM) in patients with cancer the head and neck (HNC). Study design setting Retrospective over 48 SPMs culled from 636 HNC seen 122 months. The minimum follow-up was 18 months, for institutional referral center.There association between sites first tumor. were diagnosed a constant rate throughout period study. Five year-survival 29%. SPM an advanced stage either outside or synchronous had poor survival.The are growing problem better survival...
We examined the relationship between intima-media thickness of common carotid artery (CCA-IMT) and arterial stiffness, assessed by pulse wave velocity (PWV), ambulatory stiffness index (AASI) augmentation (AIx) in subjects with without type 2 diabetes.A case-series study was made 366 patients (105 diabetics 261-non-diabetics). Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring performed on a day standard activity SpaceLabs 90207 system. AASI calculated as "1-slope" from within-person regression...
Abstract Interferon lambda 4 (IFNλ4) has shown antiviral activity against RNA viruses, including some coronaviruses. Besides, genetic variants of IFNL4 can be predictive the clearance viruses. However, little is known about effect these on SARS-CoV-2 infection. In this study, we investigated whether there was a relationship rs12979860 polymorphism with COVID-19. We found that T allele overexpressed in COVID-19 patients regard to general population without disease (36.16% vs. 26.40%, p = 6.4...
Prolonged sitting time has negative consequences on health, although the population is not well aware of these harmful effects. We explored opinions expressed by primary care patients diagnosed as overweight or moderately obese concerning their spent sitting, willingness to change, and barriers, facilitators, goals expectations related limiting this behaviour.A descriptive-interpretive qualitative study was carried out at three healthcare centres in Barcelona, Spain, included 23 with...
Health promotion is a key process of current health systems. Primary Care (PHC) the ideal setting for but multifaceted barriers make its integration difficult in usual care. The majority adult population engages two or more risk behaviours, that why multiple intervention might be effective and efficient. primary objectives are to evaluate effectiveness, cost-effectiveness an implementation strategy complex promote healthy behaviours people between 45 75 years attended PHC. This study cluster...
Background: Studying the adherence of population to Atlantic Diet (AD) could be simplified by an easy and quickly applied dietary index. The aim this study is analyse relationship index measuring compliance with recommendations regarding diet physical activity cardiovascular disease risk factors, obesity indexes arterial stiffness markers.We included 791 individuals from EVIDENT (lifestyles ageing), (52.3 ± 12 years, 61.7% women) without disease. Compliance on AD was collected through...

Otosclerosis (OTSC) is one of the most common causes hearing loss in white adults. The COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes coding for type-I collagen have been proposed as candidate development OTSC. gene was recently reported to be associated with condition on basis a population-based case-control study. We report here an independent study association between polymorphisms OTSC, sample from population Caucasian individuals living Northwest Spain. Specifically, we studied two previously six...
Declining physical activity is associated with a rising burden of global disease. There little evidence about effective ways to increase adherence activity. Therefore, interventions are needed that produce sustained increases in and cost-effective.
