Vascular age as a key for a team-based approach to manage blood pressure bridging community pharmacists and primary healthcare physicians—The Together trial
Background: Highlighting arterial stiffness in Community Pharmacies (CPh) has been met with considerable interest in Portugal, Austria, and Spain. TOGETHER aims to evaluate whether empowering hypertensive subjects by determining blood pressure (BP) and vascular aging in CPh increases hypertension (HTN) control, while establishing paths of lasting cooperation between General Practitioners (GP) and CPh. Methods: TOGETHER is a cluster-randomized, pr…
Effect of a lifestyle-integrated functional exercise (LiFE) group intervention (sLiFE) to falls prevention in non-institutionalized older adults. Protocol of a randomised clinical trial
Introduction: Personalized programs of integrated strength and balance activities have been shown their effectiveness in falls reduction in the older adults. Objective: To measure whether a group intervention with the strength and balance principles of the sLiFE program is more effective than standard health advice in reducing the incidence of falls. Methods: = 325). The intervention group will follow the balance and strength activities described…
Relationship between addictions and obesity, physical activity and vascular aging in young adults (EVA-Adic study)
Background Behavioral and substance addictions are prevalent health problems that, alongside obesity, are linked to reduced physical activity and increased sedentary time. Similarly, arterial stiffness and vascular aging are processes that begin gradually at an early age and are closely associated with morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases. The main objective of this study is to analyze how addictions are related to obesity and bod…
Lifestyles, arterial aging, and its relationship with the intestinal and oral microbiota (Mivas III study)
Background The microbiota is increasingly recognized as a significant factor in the pathophysiology of many diseases, including cardiometabolic diseases, with lifestyles probably exerting the greatest influence on the composition of the human microbiome. The main objectives of the study are to analyze the association of lifestyles (diet, physical activity, tobacco, and alcohol) with the gut and oral microbiota, arterial aging, and cognitive funct…
Sedentary Behaviour and Its Relationship with Early Vascular Ageing in the General Spanish Population
Sedentary behaviour is associated with a greater predisposition to developing cardiovascular diseases. The aim of the study was to analyse the relationship between sedentary time and early vascular ageing. A total of 501 participants (49.70% men) were recruited through random sampling stratified by age group and sex. Vascular ageing was evaluated considering three criteria: (1) the vascular ageing index (VAI); (2) the carotid−femoral pulse wave v…
Effectiveness of a multiple health-behaviour-change intervention in increasing adherence to the Mediterranean Diet in adults (Eira study)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03136211. Retrospectively registered on 02/05/2017 https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03136211
Hospitalization Trends for Acute Appendicitis in Spain, 1998 to 2017
The incidence of acute appendicitis decreased in Western countries from 1930 to at least the early 1990s, when epidemiological data started becoming scarcer. This study aimed to assess the trend in annual hospitalizations for acute appendicitis in all people Spain for a 20-year period between 1998 and 2017. This observational study analyzing direct age-standardized hospital admission rates by gender and age group (0-14 years, 15-34 years, 35-44 y…
Complex multiple risk intervention to promote healthy behaviours in people between 45 to 75 years attended in primary health care (Eira study)
ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT03136211 .Retrospectively registered on May 2, 2017
The Evident diet quality index is associated with cardiovascular risk and arterial stiffness in adults
The diet quality index developed is associated to CVR and its components, and also with arterial stiffness, as measured with PWV. This index is also a good predictor of adherence to MD
Effectiveness of a smartphone application for improving healthy lifestyles, a randomized clinical trial (Evident II)
Clinical Trials.gov Identifier: NCT02016014
Perceived Organizational Justice in Care Services
Risk levels for suffering a traffic injury in primary health care. The Lesionat* project
Clinical Trials.gov Identifier: NCT00778440
Physical exercise, fitness and dietary pattern and their relationship with circadian blood pressure pattern, augmentation index and endothelial dysfunction biological markers
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01083082
Central blood pressure and pulse wave velocity
The results of this study will help to know and quantify the prognostic value of central arterial pressure and pulse wave velocity in relation to the evolution of the subclinical target organ damage markers and the possible incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Effectiveness of an intervention in groups of family caregivers of dependent patients for their application in primary health centers. Study protocol
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT01177696
Vasoactive effects of different fractions from two Panamanians plants used in Amerindian traditional medicine
Agreement between the SCORE and D’Agostino Scales for the Classification of High Cardiovascular Risk in Sedentary Spanish Patients
The quantitative correlation between the two scales is very high. Patient categorization as corresponding to high risk generates disagreements, mainly among males, where agreement between the two classifications is only moderate
