This cross-sectional descriptive study was designed to compare fatigue, depression, cardiovascular risk, and self-rated health in community dwelling adults (CDA) without a history of myocardial infarction (MI) compared to adults who had experienced an MI 3 to 7 years ago. A convenience sample ( = 40) of CDA completed: demographic health form, Revised Piper Fatigue Scale, and CES-D. Age-matched controls ( = 40) were randomly selected from the Recurrence of Myocardial Infarction (ROMI) study. Most ( = 80) were White (66%) with a mean age of 58.3 ( = 11.5; range 21-83). The ROMI group reported more diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and hypertension, and had higher fatigue ((61) = 4.51, < .001). No differences were noted in depression scores ( = .952). Higher fatigue and depression scores were correlated with poorer self-rated health: = .544 ( < .001) and = .295 ( = .008).
本横断面描述性研究旨在比较无心肌梗死 (MI) 病史的社区居住成年人 (CDA) 与 3 至 7 年前经历过 MI 的成年人之间的疲劳、抑郁、心血管风险和自我报告的健康状况。对 40 名 CDA 进行了便利抽样，完成了人口统计学健康表、修订后的 Piper 疲劳量表和 CES-D。从心肌梗死后再发 (ROMI) 研究中随机选择了年龄匹配的对照组 ( = 40)。大多数人 ( = 80) 为白人 (66%)，平均年龄为 58.3 ( = 11.5；范围 21-83)。ROMI 组报告了更多的糖尿病、高胆固醇血症、肥胖症和高血压，并且疲劳程度更高 ((61) = 4.51, < .001)。抑郁评分无差异 ( = .952)。更高的疲劳和抑郁评分与较差的自我报告健康状况相关： = .544 ( < .001) 和 = .295 ( = .008)。
