Efectos del entrenamiento por intervalo vs entrenamiento continuo sobre la capacidad aeróbica en pacientes con enfermedad de las arterias coronarias
No full textBizzozero Peroni, B., y Díaz Goñi, V. (2019). Efectos del entrenamiento por intervalos vs entrenamiento continuo sobre la capacidad aeróbica en pacientes con enfermedad de las arterias coronarias. PENSAR EN MOVIMIENTO: Revista de Ciencias del Ejercicio y la Salud, 17(2), 1-27. El objetivo de esta revisión fue comparar la influencia del entrenamiento por intervalos de alta intensidad (HIIT) con el entrenamiento continuo de moderada intensidad (MICT) sobre la capacidad aeróbica y otras variables relevantes en pacientes con enfermedad de las arterias coronarias (EAC). Realizamos una revisión de estudios sistemáticos y metaanálisis en PubMed hasta el 04 de junio de 2019. Se identificaron un total de 22 artículos, de los cuales 6 se seleccionaron finalmente para esta revisión. La calidad metodológica se evaluó utilizando la herramienta ‘Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews 2’ (AMSTAR-2). Todos los estudios analizaron los efectos del HIIT y MICT en pacientes adultos (rango edad media: 52-76 años). La calidad general de los estudios incluidos fue moderada-alta (AMSTAR-2). El HIIT presentó mayores mejorías sobre el consumo de oxígeno pico y la frecuencia cardíaca pico en comparación al MICT. Esta revisión agrega evidencia adicional que el HIIT presenta mejoras clínicamente significativas sobre la capacidad aeróbica en comparación al MICT. Son necesarios más estudios que permitan establecer conclusiones consistentes de los efectos del HIIT y MICT sobre otras variables relevantes
Nut consumption is associated with a lower risk of depression in adults: A prospective analysis with data from the UK Biobank cohort
No full textBackground & aims: Evidence on the association between nut consumption and depression is mainly
based on cross-sectional studies. This study aims to analyse whether nut consumption is prospectively
associated with the risk of depression in adults.
Methods: This study was conducted using the United Kingdom (UK) Biobank resource. Data from middleaged and older UK adults who participated in this cohort between 2007e2012 (baseline) and 2013e2020
(follow-up) were analysed. Baseline information on nut consumption was obtained with the Oxford
WebQ 24-h questionnaire. Depression, defined as a self-reported physician diagnosis of depression or
antidepressant use, was assessed at baseline and follow-up. Hazard regression models estimating the
predictive ability of nut consumption for the risk of developing depression were adjusted for sociodemographic, lifestyle, and health confounders.
Results: A total of 13,504 participants (mean age 57.5 ± 7.2 years, 50.7% female) free of depression at
baseline were included in the analyses. After a mean follow-up of 5.3 ± 2.4 years, 1122 (8.3%) incident
cases of depression were identified. Compared with no nut consumption, the daily consumption of >0 to
1 serving of 30 g of nuts was associated with a lower risk of depression (hazard ratio, HR ¼ 0.83; 95%
confidence interval, CI: 0.71e0.97) regardless of all potential confounders considered. In stratified analyses, a decreased risk of depression was more clearly observed in UK adults with adequate weight
control, a healthy lifestyle, and better health status than in their counterparts (p < 0.05).
Conclusions: Low-to-moderate nut consumption (>0 to 1 serving of 30 g/day) was associated with a 17%
lower risk of depression during a 5.3-year follow-up compared with no nut consumption in a large
sample of middle-aged and older UK adults. This protective association is enhanced in the absence of
other known risk factors for depressio
High Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet is Associated with Higher Physical Fitness in Adults: a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
No full textAlthough prior research has synthesized the relationships between the Mediterranean diet (MD) and components of physical fitness (PF) in adults, they are limited and inconclusive. This study aimed to synthesize the associations between high (compared with low) MD adherence and PF levels with each of its components (cardiorespiratory, motor, and musculoskeletal) in adulthood. We conducted a systematic search in 5 databases from inception to January 2022. Observational studies and randomized controlled trials were included. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and effect sizes (Cohen d index) with their 95% CIs were calculated via a random effects model. A total of 30 studies were included (19 cross-sectional in young, middle-aged, and older adults; 10 prospective cohort in older adults; and 1 randomized controlled trial in young adults) involving 36,807 individuals (mean age range: 20.9–86.3 y). Pooled effect sizes showed a significant cross-sectional association between higher MD adherence scores (as a continuous variable) and overall PF (d = 0.45; 95% CI: 0.14, 0.75; I2 = 91.0%, n = 6). The pooled ORs from cross-sectional data showed that high adherence to MD was associated with higher cardiorespiratory fitness (OR: 2.26; 95% CI: 2.06, 2.47; I2 = 0%, n = 4), musculoskeletal fitness (OR: 1.26; 95% CI: 1.05, 1.47; I2 = 61.4%, n = 13), and overall PF (OR: 1.44; 95% CI: 1.20, 1.68; I2 = 83.2%, n = 17) than low adherence to MD (reference category: 1). Pooled ORs from prospective cohort studies (3- to 12-y follow-up) showed that high adherence to MD was associated with higher musculoskeletal fitness (OR: 1.20; 95% CI: 1.01, 1.38; I2 = 0%, n = 4) and overall PF (OR: 1.14; 95% CI: 1.02, 1.26; I2 = 9.7%, n = 7) than low adherence to MD (reference category: 1). Conversely, no significant association was observed between MD and motor fitness. High adherence to MD was associated with higher PF levels, a crucial marker of health status throughout adulthood.

Mediterranean Diet Interventions for Depressive Symptoms in Adults with Depressive Disorders: A Protocol for a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
No full textThe associations between Mediterranean diet (MD) adherence and depression levels have been synthesized from observational studies. However, a systematic review with meta-analysis including randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on this relationship in adults with depressive disorders remains lacking. This protocol was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis for Protocols statement. MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane CENTRAL, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Web of Science databases will be systematically searched to identify studies published from database inception up to 30 September 2022. The inclusion criteria will comprise RCTs reporting pre-post changes in depression status (symptoms or remission) after a MD intervention compared to a control condition in adults over 18 years with depressive disorders. Pooled effect sizes and 95% confidence intervals will be calculated using the DerSimonian random-effects model. This study protocol determines the methodological approach for the systematic review and meta-analysis that will summarize the available evidence on the efficacy of MD interventions on depressive symptoms in adults with depressive disorders. The findings from this review may have implications for public mental health programs. The results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publication, conference presentation, and infographics. No ethical approval will be required since only published data will be used. PROSPERO registration number: CRD42022341895
Proinflammatory dietary pattern and depression risk in older adults: Prospective analyses from the Seniors-ENRICA studies
No full textBecas de Posgrado en el Exterior 2020: código POS_EXT_2020_1_165371Background & aims: Only a few studies have assessed the association between a proinflammatory diet
and the risk of depression in older adults, and they have rendered weak results. The present study
analysed the association between the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and incident self-reported
diagnosis or symptoms of depression in two cohorts of community-dwelling older adults in Spain.
Methods: We used data from the Seniors-ENRICA-I (SE-I) and Seniors-ENRICA-II (SE-II) cohorts. In both
cohorts, the baseline DII was calculated from habitual food consumption estimated with a validated
computer-based diet history. The incidence of both physician self-reported diagnosis of depression and
mild-to-major depressive symptoms (3 on the 10-item Geriatric Depression Scale) was analysed. Logistic regression models were adjusted for the main potential confounders, such as sociodemographics,
lifestyles, and comorbidities. The results of both cohorts were pooled using a random effects model.
Results: Among the 1627 participants in SE-I (mean age 71.5 ± 5.5 y, 53.1% women) and the 1579 in SE-II
(mean age 71.4 ± 4.2, 46.7% women), 86 (5.3%) and 140 (8.9%) incident cases of depression were identified after a mean 3.2-y and 2.3-y follow-up, respectively. The fully adjusted odds ratio (95% confidence
interval) of incident depression for the highest (the highest proinflammatory diet) versus the lowest
quartile of DII was 2.76 (1.25e6.08, p-for-trend ¼ 0.005) in the SE-I, 1.90 (1.04e3.40, p-for-trend ¼ 0.005)
in the SE-II and 2.07 (1.01e3.13) in the pooled cohorts. The results were consistent across strata defined
by sex, age, physical activity, loneliness/poor social network, and morbidity.
Conclusions: A proinflammatory dietary pattern is associated with depression risk in older adults. Future
research should evaluate whether reducing the inflammatory component of diet leads to reduced
depression symptoms in this populationAgencia Nacional de Investigación e Innovación (ANII
The association between meat consumption and muscle strength index in young adults: the mediating role of total protein intake and lean mass percentage
No full textPurpose The aim of this study was to analyse the associations between the consumption of diferent types of meat and the
muscle strength index (MSI) and to examine whether this relationship is mediated by total protein intake (TPI) and lean mass
percentage (LM%) in young adults.
Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study with frst-year university students from Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. Diferent types of meat consumption (total, red, processed, and white and fsh) were separately evaluated using a Food-Frequency
Questionnaire. MSI was determined from the handgrip and standing long jump tests. ANCOVA models were used to test
the mean diferences in MSI by categories of meat consumption. Serial multiple mediation models were used to explore the
mediating role of TPI and LM% in the relationship between meat consumption and MSI. All analyses were adjusted for age,
sex, and socioeconomic level, identifed through a directed acyclic graph. Additional analyses were performed with a small
subsample including alcohol intake, tobacco smoking, physical activity, cardiorespiratory ftness, and total energy intake as
covariates in the multiple mediation models.
Results A total of 230 students (mean age 21.1±2.1 years, 66.5% women) were included in the analysis. Young adults with
higher meat consumption (total, red, and white and fsh) had higher MSI adjusted means than their peers with lower meat
consumption (p<0.05). These associations did not remain after controlling for TPI and LM%. In adjusted mediation analyses, a signifcant indirect efect was observed through TPI and LM% in the associations between each of the types of meat
consumption and MSI. In the additional analyses, a greater efect of white and fsh meat consumption on muscle strength
through mediation of TPI and LM% was reported compared to red or processed meat consumption, and no signifcant efects
were observed between processed meat consumption and MSI.
Conclusion Higher consumption of total, red, and white and fsh meat was associated with increased MSI in young adults.
TPI and LM% mediated this relationship
