Abstract
Purpose: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing usually requires a maximal exhaustive effort by the patient and is time consuming. The purpose of this study was to assess whether the cost to initiate exercise termed "proportional internal work" (PIW) was related to cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, ventilatory parameters, and mortality.
Methods: We used data from population-based Study of Health in Pomerania. A total of 2829 (49.5% female) study participants with a median age of 52 (42-62) yr were included. Standardized questionnaires were used to assess CV risk factors. The cardiopulmonary exercise testing was performed using a modified Jones protocol. Regression models adjusted for sex and age were used to relate PIW with CVD risk factors and ventilatory parameters. The PIW was calculated by the following formula: (Oxygen uptake at rest - Oxygen uptake without load)/V˙ o2peak ) × 100. Cox regression analysis was used to relate PIW and all-cause mortality.
Results: We identified a nonlinear association between PIW and percent predicted V˙ o2peak . Women had a 2.96 (95% CI, 2.61-3.32) greater PIW than men. With each year of age and every point in body mass index, the PWI increased by 0.04 (95% CI, 0.03-0.05) and 0.16 (95% CI, 0.12-0.20), respectively. After adjustment for age, sex, smoking, and body mass index, a 1-point greater PIW was associated with a 5% higher risk to die (HR = 1.05; 95% CI, 1.01-1.07).
Conclusions: The PIW is a new cardiopulmonary exercise testing parameter related to CVD risk and all-cause mortality. Future studies should assess the prognostic relevance of PIW for CVD prevention.
期刊介绍:
JCRP was the first, and remains the only, professional journal dedicated to improving multidisciplinary clinical practice and expanding research evidence specific to both cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation. This includes exercise testing and prescription, behavioral medicine, and cardiopulmonary risk factor management. In 2007, JCRP expanded its scope to include primary prevention of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. JCRP publishes scientific and clinical peer-reviewed Original Investigations, Reviews, and Brief or Case Reports focused on the causes, prevention, and treatment of individuals with cardiovascular or pulmonary diseases in both a print and online-only format. Editorial features include Editorials, Invited Commentaries, Literature Updates, and Clinically-relevant Topical Updates. JCRP is the official Journal of the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation and the Canadian Association of Cardiac Rehabilitation.
