The EXERDIET-HTA study was a multi-arm parallel, a randomized, single-blind controlled experimental trial comparing the effects of 16 weeks of different aerobic exercise programs two days per week, and dietary intervention in a hypertensive, overweight/obese and non-physically active population.
To evaluate the influence of diet and aerobic exercise program intervention on cardiovascular risk (CVR) factors and predicted CVR and vascular age (VA) profiles in overweight/obese people with primary hypertension (HTN), and to analyze the potential sex differences in the ability to predict VA and CVR via different methods.
The CVR and VA determined (n = 167, 53.7 ± 7.8 years) using the Framingham Risk Score (FRS) and the new equation for the prediction of 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk, before and after the 16-week intervention period (different aerobic exercise programs + hypocaloric diet). The sex-specific risk factors considered were age, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diabetes mellitus (DM) and smoking status.
From baseline to follow-up, participants reduced (p ≤ 0.001) FRS-CVR score and VA, and SBP. Total cholesterol decreased significantly, but specifically in men (p ≤ 0.001), and antihypertensive medication (%) in women (p = 0.047). No significant differences over time were observed for HDL-C, smoking, DM overall for either sex. For ASCVD-CVR there was no overall change or for either sex. After the intervention, women had a lower CVR score than men (p ≤ 0.001), irrespective of the calculation method.
The improvement in CVR factors after 16-week lifestyle changes reduced the risk of suffering a cardiovascular event in overweight/obese adults with HTN through the FRS estimation tool, but not with the ASCVD score. The risk score algorithms could underestimate CVR in women. In contrast, VA could be a useful and easier tool in the management of individuals with CVR factors.
EXERDIET-HTA研究是一项多组平行、随机、单盲对照实验性试验,比较了每周两天、为期16周的不同有氧运动计划以及饮食干预对高血压、超重/肥胖且缺乏体育锻炼人群的影响。
评估饮食和有氧运动计划干预对原发性高血压(HTN)超重/肥胖人群心血管风险(CVR)因素、预测的CVR和血管年龄(VA)状况的影响,并分析通过不同方法预测VA和CVR能力方面的潜在性别差异。
在为期16周的干预期(不同有氧运动计划+低热量饮食)前后,使用弗雷明汉风险评分(FRS)和预测10年动脉粥样硬化性心血管疾病(ASCVD)风险的新方程确定CVR和VA(n = 167,年龄53.7±7.8岁)。所考虑的性别特异性风险因素包括年龄、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)、总胆固醇、收缩压(SBP)、糖尿病(DM)和吸烟状况。
从基线到随访,参与者的FRS-CVR评分、VA和SBP均降低(p≤0.001)。总胆固醇显著下降,但仅在男性中如此(p≤0.001),女性的抗高血压药物使用比例下降(p = 0.047)。对于HDL-C、吸烟、总体DM,无论男女,随时间均未观察到显著差异。对于ASCVD-CVR,总体或任何性别均无变化。干预后,无论计算方法如何,女性的CVR评分均低于男性(p≤0.001)。
通过FRS评估工具,16周生活方式改变后CVR因素的改善降低了超重/肥胖高血压成年人心血管事件的风险,但ASCVD评分未显示此效果。风险评分算法可能低估女性的CVR。相比之下,VA可能是管理有CVR因素个体的有用且更简便的工具。
