The success of large-scale COVID-19 vaccination campaigns is contingent upon people being willing to receive the vaccine. Our study explored vaccine hesitancy and its correlates in eight different countries around globe. We analyzed convenience sample data collected between March 2020 January 2021 as part iCARE cross-sectional study. Univariate multivariate statistical analyses were conducted explore hesitancy. included 32,028 participants from countries, observed that 27% exhibited...
In healthy subjects, the self-selected walking speed (SSWS) corresponds to lowest cost of transport (CT). This study tested hypothesis that SSWS could be determined by work breathing instead CT in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).Seventeen CHF due left ventricular systolic dysfunction and 17 controls were compared. Both groups submitted a protocol on treadmill at SSWS, two speeds below (-0.5 -1.0 km·h), above (+0.5 +1.0 km·h). The ventilatory efficiency, as equivalent for carbon...
This study compared the effects of Mat Pilates training on cardiovascular risk markers in postmenopausal women with single or multiple cardiometabolic conditions. Forty-four were divided into single-condition (SINGLE; n = 20) and multiple-condition (MULTI; 24) groups. Both groups completed three times per week for 12 weeks. Measurements resting blood pressure, body composition, dietary intake, taken before after intervention. A Generalized Estimating Equation was used hypothesis testing....
Patients with endometrial neoplasia (EN) often have multiple comorbidities and a higher surgical risk. Prehabilitation programs (PPs) combine various interventions to improve preoperative conditions reduce impairment due stress. We conducted pragmatic pilot study evaluate the acceptability feasibility of trimodal telehealth PP (exercise, nutrition, psychological support) for EN patients. The participants could select their exercise group: (1) supervised (SPP), group sessions 3×/week; (2)...
People living with and beyond breast cancer (LWBBC) experience different side effects relative to the type of medical treatments they received which may influence their needs for additional supportive care. Investigating people LWBBC's according treatment regimen guide decision making about care priorities. The study's objectives were identify individuals determine exercise program participation facilitators type. A survey assessing was distributed on Facebook pages five non-profit Canadian...
<title>Abstract</title> Digital health solutions are increasingly used in heart failure (HF) management to optimize resources. However, their full effectiveness remains unclear. The objective of this study was assess if by enhancing remote patient follow-up, optimizing guideline directed medical treatment (GDMT), and positively influencing behavior, digital could lead a significant reduction overall care consumption. In 12-week randomized controlled trial, mobile app-based monitoring,...
Objective: We explored the relationship between COVID-19 transmission-related concerns and reduced physical activity during COVID (RPAC). Methods: analyzed data from 2,543 participants across Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Canada, USA with at least 200 per country. The two primary assessed were: a) fear of being infected, 2) concern about personal health if infected. Participants were asked to report changes in their (PA) behavior since pandemic started. Results: sample was predominantly...
We hypothesized that heart failure patients with inspiratory muscle weakness (IMW) present greater peripheral chemoreflex responsiveness and augmented exercise ventilatory oscillation compared to preserved strength. studied 19 patients: 9 IMW (maximal pressure [PImax]<70% of predicted) 10 Inspiratory strength was measured via transducer. Peripheral evaluated by the single-breath CO(2) test. Exercise determined as ratio between amplitude mean each during incremental exercise. Patients had...
