The combined relationship of occupational and leisure-time physical activity with all-cause mortality among men, accounting for physical fitness.

Clays E, Lidegaard M, De Bacquer D, Van Herck K, De Backer G, Kittel F, de Smet P, Holtermann A.AbstractThe aim of this study was to assess the combined relationship of occupational physical activity and leisure-time physical activity with all-cause mortality among men, while accounting for physical fitness. The prospective Belgian Physical Fitness Study included 1,456 male workers aged 40-55 years who were free of coronary heart disease at baseline. Baseline data were collected through questionnaires and clinical examinations from 1976 to 1978. To estimate physical fitness, a submaximal graded exercise test was performed on a bicycle ergometer. Total mortality was registered during a mean follow-up period of 16.9 years. Main results were obtained through Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. A total of 145 deaths were registered during follow-up. After adjustment for confounders, a significantly increased mortality rate was observed in workers who had low levels of both physical activity types (hazard ratio = 2.07, 95% confidence interval: 1.03, 4.19) but also in workers combining high occupational physical activity and low leisure-time physical activity (hazard ratio = 2.04, 95% confidence interval: 1.07, 3.91); the latter finding was particularly pronounced among workers with a low physical fitness level. The present results confirm the existence of a complex interplay among different physical activity settings and fitness levels in predicting mortality.

Electronic address: mjaff@partners.org.5National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Framingham Heart Study, Framingham, Mass; Section of General Internal Medicine, Department of Medicine, Boston University School of Medicine, Boston, Mass.AbstractBACKGROUND: An increased interarm systolic blood pressure difference is an easily determined physical examination finding. The relationship between interarm systolic blood pressure difference and risk of future cardiovascular disease is uncertain. We described the prevalence and risk factor correlates of interarm systolic blood pressure difference in the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) original and offspring cohorts and examined the association between interarm systolic blood pressure difference and incident cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality.

Etomidate Use and Postoperative Outcomes among Cardiac Surgery Patients.

Wagner CE1, Bick JS, Johnson D, Ahmad R, Han X, Ehrenfeld JM, Schildcrout JS, Pretorius M.Author information 1From the Department of Anesthesiology (C.E.W., J.S.B., J.M.E., and M.P.), Department of Biostatistics (X.H. and J.S.S.), Department of Pharmacy (D.J.), Department of Medicine (M.P.), and Department of Cardiac Surgery (R.A.), Vanderbilt University Medical School, Nashville, Tennessee.AbstractBACKGROUND: Although a single dose of etomidate can cause relative adrenal insufficiency, the impact of etomidate exposure on postoperative outcomes is unknown. The objective of this study was to examine the association between a single induction dose of etomidate and clinically important postoperative outcomes after cardiac surgery.
