RESUMO

Introduction: Different approaches, involving different areas and figures, are useful for the rehabilitation of obese subjects through a multidisciplinary hospital path. A focal point of rehabilitation is represented by education on healthy eating by increasing the dietary knowledge patients. Few tools investigating food knowledge are available in Italy: therefore, the need has emerged to develop easy-to-use tools for clinical practice that allow to detect food knowledge to set up a more targeted food re-education. The following work aimed at building and validating a questionnaire capable of investigating the dietary knowledge of the population affected by obesity. Methods: A pool of experts carried out a review of the literature, gathering all the information necessary to select and construct the best set of questions and the format of the final project of the questionnaire. During statistical analysis the validity, reproducibility and stability of the questionnaire were investigate in a sample of 450 subjects with obesity. Results: Early analysis disclosed that 5 questions of the original questionnaire had no discriminating power. The successive validation phases were successful, confirming good content validity, stability and reproducibility over time. Discussion: The questionnaire has all the characteristics to be considered a valid tool for investigating dietary knowledge in the obese population. The psychometric tests confirmed a good internal consistency of the structure, a validity of the content, a good reproducibility and stability over time.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this paper is to describe the effects of a rehabilitation programme in obese patients affected with chronic ischaemic heart disease; to identify the factors that influence weight loss and improvement in exercise capacity in everyday practice. METHODS AND RESULTS: We studied 562 white patients (381 men) who followed a 23.3 +/- 3.9 days in-hospital programme. They attended daily sessions of aerobic activity (cycloergometer, walking, and strength exercise); a low-calorie diet was set at approximately 80% of resting energy expenditure. By the end of the programme BMI decreased from 38.0 +/- 4.9 to 36.7 +/- 4.8 kg/m2 (P < 0.001 ). Attained metabolic equivalents (METs) increased from 6.2 +/- 2.5 METs to 7.3 +/- 2.7 (P < 0.001). Age, sex, presence of diabetes and education level were significantly related to the outcomes. Patients who took beta-blockers and statins had less BMI improvement: -1.2 +/- 0.7 kg/m2 vs. -1.4 +/- 0.6 (P = 0.013) and -1.3 +/- 0.6 vs. -1.4 +/- 0.7 (P = 0.023), respectively. Patients that took diuretics and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) had less improvement in exercise capacity: 0.9 +/- 1.0 METS vs. 1.3 +/- 1.3 (P < 0.001) and 0.8 +/- 1.3 vs. 1.2 +/- 1.3 (P = 0.011 ), respectively. After a median interval of 358 days, 152 patients were seen at a follow-up visit: their BMI increased by 1.0 +/- 2.4 kg/m2 and only 21% of patients lost weight. CONCLUSIONS: Rehabilitation improves exercise capacity and induces significant weight loss in obese patients with stable IHD, but women, diabetic, elderly and poorly educated subjects obtained unsatisfactory results. Use of diuretics and ARB seem to worsen the results. At follow-up only a small percentage of patients further improves BMI.
