Influência dos treinamentos aeróbio e resistido sobre os parâmetros metabólicos e cardiovasculares de mulheres idosas / Influence of aerobic and resistence training on the cardio-vascular and metabolic parameters in elderly women / Influencia del entrenamientos aeróbico y resistido en los pa-rámetros metabolico y cardiovascular de mujeres de edad avanzada

Este estudo busca verificar a influência do treinamento aeróbio (TA) e resistido (TR) sobre parâmetros metabólicos e cardiovasculares, além da prevalência de fatores de risco cardiovasculares em idosas. O estudo foi realizado com 39 mulheres (68,6±6,2 anos) submetidas ao TA e TR, 3x/semana por 13 semanas. Obteve-se redução da pressão arterial (PA) sistólica (-7,8mmHg, p=0,01), da PA diastólica (-2,1mmHg, p=0,04), da prevalência de hipertensão arterial (p=0,04), da frequência cardíaca de repouso (-4bpm, p=0,03), do duplo produto (-843,3mmHgxbpm, p=0,02) e tendência de redução da glicose sanguínea (p=0,06). Porém, houve manutenção dos parâmetros lipídicos. Assim, o treinamento ocasionou melhora cardiovascular e tendência na redução da glicemia, sem melhorias no perfil lipídico.

This study aims to verify the influence of aerobic training (AT) and resistance (RT) on meta-bolic and cardiovascular parameters and the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in elder-ly women. The study was conducted with 39 women (68.6±6.2 years old) subjected to AT and RT 3x/week, for 13 weeks. It were obtained reductions of systolic blood pressure (BP) (-7.8mmHg, p=0.01), diastolic BP (-2.1mmHg, p=0.04), the prevalence of arterial hypertension (p=0.04) the resting heart rate (-4bpm, p=0.03), rate-pressure product (-843.3mmHgxbpm, p=0.02) and blood glucose decrease trend (p=0.06). However, there was maintenance of lipid parameters. Thus, the training caused cardiovascular improvement and trend in reducing blood glucose levels without improvement in the lipid profile.

Este estudio tiene como objetivo verificar la influencia del entrenamiento aeróbico (EA) y la resistencia (ER) en los parámetros metabólicos y cardiovasculares, y la prevalencia de facto-res de riesgo cardiovascular en mujeres de edad avanzada. El estudio fue realizado con 39 mujeres (68,6±6,2 años) sometidos al EA y ER 3x/semana y durante 13 semanas. Reducción obtenida de la presión arterial (PA) (-7,8mmHg, p=0,01), la PA diastólica (-2,1mmHg, p=0,04), la prevalencia de la hipertensión (p=0,04) de frecuencia cardíaca en reposo (-4bpm, p=0,03), el doble producto (-843,3mmHgxbpm, p=0,02) y la reducción de la glucemia ten-dencia (p=0,06). Sin embargo, hubo mantenimiento de los parámetros de lípidos. Por lo tanto, la formación y la llevó tendencia de mejora cardiovascular en la reducción de los niveles de glucosa en la sangre sin la mejora en el perfil lipídico.

Intervention effects of cognitive-behavioral group counseling in the elderly hypertension with anxiety symptoms / 中国心理卫生杂志

Objective:To evaluate the effects of the intervention of cognitive-behavioral group counseling for elderly hypertensive patients with anxiety symptoms.Methods:The Screen for Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) of higher scores ≥41 was used to screen out 80 elderly hypertensive patients with anxiety symptoms,who were randomly signed to the intervention group (n =40) and the control group (n =40).The intervention group was given cognitive-behavioral group counseling for 8 weeks,while the control group without any intervention.All participants were assessed with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI),Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ),UCLA Loneliness Scale and Self-Esteem Scale (SES) at base line,8 weeks after the intervention and one month after the end of intervention.Results:Thirty-seven elderly hypertensive patients of the intervention group completed the 8-week sessions and 32 elderly hypertensive patients participated in the l-mouth follow-up.Thirty-nine participants of the control group completed the 8-week wait and post 8-week wait follow-up diagnostic tests.Compared to baseline,the patients had significant reduction in the scores at SAI and negative coping style after treatment (Ps ＜ 0.01),whereas the scores of those in the control group did not show any significant reduction (Ps ＞0.05).In the comparison of before-post difference between intervention and control group,the difference of SAI scores and negative coping style scores were higher inintervention group than in control group (Ps ＜ 0.05).The 1-month follow-up showed that the scores of SAIand negative coping style decrease continuously (Ps ＜ 0.01).Contusion:It suggests that cognitive-behavioral group counseling could reduce the level of anxiety in the elderly hypertensive patients.

Effect of Health Education on the Old Male Patients with Primary Hypertension / 中国康复理论与实践

@#Objective To evaluate the effect of health education on the old male patients with primary hypertension.Methods 120 old male patients with primary hypertension were randomly selected from the whole group and educated with health knowledge related to blood hypertension, and the changes of life style and blood pressure after health education were recorded.Results Most of the patients changed their unhealthy life style. Among these patients, more than 80% were able to have a stable emotion, regular daily life, stop smoking and less drinking, there were 66% cases with a healthy diet. The systolic pressure of the patients declined significantly after health education (P<0.01).Conclusion The health education is an efficient way to control hypertension in the official-service outpatient department.
