The triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) is a tool for insulin resistance evaluation, however, little known about its association with coronary artery disease (CAD), which the major cardiovascular death cause, and what factors may be associated TyG index.
Studies have found that patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) often do not receive evidence-based therapies in community practice. This is particularly true low- and middle-income countries.To evaluate whether a multifaceted quality improvement (QI) intervention can improve the use of reduce incidence major cardiovascular events among ACS country.The BRIDGE-ACS (Brazilian Intervention to Increase Evidence Usage Acute Coronary Syndromes) trial, cluster-randomized (concealed allocation)...
Pulmonary function studies were performed in 28 asymptomatic adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. Tests included spirometry, flow volume curve, measurements of inspired gas distribution, diffusing capacity, closing volume, ventilatory response to carbon dioxide, and arterial blood analysis. In addition the well-known decreases lung volumes, a reduction oxygen tension, dioxide also documented. Significant correlations existed between severity spinal curvature decrease volumes. A significant...
Proinflammatory biomarkers levels are increased among patients with cardiovascular disease, and it is known that both the presence of insulin resistance diet may influence those levels. However, these associations not well studied established disease. Our objective to compare inflammatory biomarker disease secondary prevention without resistance, evaluate if there any association between plasma fatty acid them. In this cross-sectional sub-study from BALANCE Program Trial, we collected data...
Appropriate dietary recommendations represent a key part of secondary prevention in cardiovascular disease (CVD). We evaluated the effectiveness implementation nutritional program on quality diet, events, and death patients with established CVD.In this open-label, multicenter trial conducted 35 sites Brazil, we randomly assigned (1:1) aged 45 years or older to receive either BALANCE Program (experimental group) conventional nutrition advice (control group). The included unique education...
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effectiveness of Brazilian Cardioprotective Diet Program in reducing blood pressures, fasting glucose levels and body mass indices patients with established atherothrombotic disease.METHOD: This randomized controlled pilot trial included outpatients who were over 45 years age cardiovascular disease.Group A, received Program, had weekly sessions dietitians.Groups B C usual dietary therapy that is given to diseases as proposed by guidelines.This diet same nutrient...
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the association of dietary inflammatory index (DII®) with occurrence cardiovascular events, cardiometabolic risk factors and consumption processed, ultra-processed, unprocessed or minimally processed foods culinary ingredients. Design: This was a cross-sectional study that analysed baseline data from 2359 cardiac patients. Data on socio-demographic, anthropometric, clinical food were collected. Energy-adjusted intake used to calculate DII, classified according...
Background Health complexity includes biological, psychological, social, and health systems. Having complex needs is associated with poorer clinical outcomes higher healthcare costs. Care management for people increasingly recommended in primary care (PHC). The INTERMED assessment grid showed adequate psychometric properties specialized settings. This study aimed to evaluate INTERMED’s validity feasibility assess an adult PHC population. Method biopsychosocial of 230 consecutive patients...
Breast cancer (BC) is a major public health problem, with rising incidence in many regions of the globe. Although mortality has recently dropped developed countries, death rates are still increasing some developing as seen Brazil. Among reasons for this phenomenon lack structured screening programs, long waiting period between diagnosis and treatment, access to services large proportion Brazilian population. Since 2004, an intervention study cohort women Southern Brazil, denominated Porto...
Resumo Fundamento: A adesão à uma alimentação adequada em macronutrientes é fundamental para a prevenção secundária de doenças cardiovasculares. Objetivo: Avaliar prevalência às recomendações consumo ácidos graxos e tratamento cardiovasculares, estimar se presença determinados fatores risco cardiovascular estaria associada adesão. Métodos: Estudo transversal com os dados linha base 2358 participantes do estudo "Brazilian Cardioprotective Nutritional Program Trial". Dados alimentar, foram...
Achieving nutritional goals established by scientific societies is a constant challenge and not always achieved.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between apolipoprotein E (APOE) allelic frequency, serum lipoproteins and breast cancer (BC). We conducted a nested case-control within cohort including 47 cases 165 controls. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses APOE were performed. In general, participants with genotype alleles e2 e3 tended have lower triglycerides, total cholesterol low‑density lipoprotein levels higher high‑density (HDL)...
A adesão a uma alimentação saudável depende de fatores como os preços dos alimentos, sendo que alguns estudos conduzidos em países desenvolvidos apontam para um maior custo melhor qualidade nutricional. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o direto da indivíduos adultos com doença cardiovascular no Brasil, investigando relação entre e dieta. Foram utilizados dados ensaio clínico randomizado, BALANCE Program. investigação atual é análise transversal momento inicial participantes alta...
The diet of the Brazilian Cardioprotective Nutritional Program (BALANCE) classifies food into four groups and sets daily amount to be consumed. dietary approach BALANCE is different from other recommendations; therefore, it not possible use existing indexes (DI) assess patient's adequacy diet. For this reason, important develop a specific index based on This study aims describe development DI, evaluate its internal consistency, construct content validity population characteristics associated...
The consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF) has been associated with cardiometabolic risk factors. However, there is scarce literature on the association between UPF consumption, cardiovascular events, and factors in subjects undergoing secondary care for diseases (CVD). Thus, we aimed to evaluate CVD, established CVD. Baseline data from 2,357 participating a Brazilian multicenter study were analysed finding mean 18.7% their energy intake. Higher figures founded an increased presence high...
The American Heart Association (AHA) has developed the concept of "ideal cardiovascular health" (ICH), a seven-component score, which includes health dietary metrics. Higher ultra-processed foods intake is related with several cardiometabolic and diseases. We propose to develop validate Cardiovascular Health Diet Index (CHDI), diet quality index that combines AHA's recommendations healthy for foods. used data obtained through 114-item FFQ from 14,779 participants Brazilian Longitudinal Study...
Abstract Background Achieving nutritional goals established by scientific societies is a constant challenge and not always achieved. Objective To investigate the dietary adequacy of individuals with cardiovascular disease (CVD), participants in Cardioprotective Brazilian Food Program residing Northeast region Brazil, according to recommendations Society Cardiology (SBC). Methods Cross-sectional analysis data from study implementing Diet (DICA BR), which evaluated CVD treated specialized...
Risk factors can lead to clinical conditions, like metabolic syndrome, that predisposes the development of cardiovascular diseases. The aim this study was describe prevalence and which risk cause more impact in syndrome patients with established atherosclerosis disease. A cross-sectional performed as a subanalysis Programa Alimentação Cardioprotetora Brasileira. Weight, height, waist circumference, blood pressure, lipid profile fasting glucose were collected. Metabolic defined according...
