Health Literacy among People in Cardiac Rehabilitation
Health literacy (HL) is a dynamic determinant of health and a promising target of health equity interventions in noncommunicable disease prevention. Among people referred to a cardiac rehabilitation program, we examined the associations between (1) HL and participation in cardiac rehabilitation and (2) HL and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Using a cross-sectional design, we invited 193 people referred to cardiac rehabilitation in Randers…
Depression and Uptake of Oral Anticoagulation Therapy in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
BACKGROUND: Oral anticoagulation therapy (OAT) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is a highly important preventive intervention, perhaps especially in those with comorbid depression, who have a worse prognosis. However, OAT may pose particular challenges in depressed patients. OBJECTIVES: To assess whether AF patients with depression have lower OAT uptake. METHODS: This nationwide register-based 2005-2016 cohort study of all Danes with AF …
Health literacy is associated with health behaviour and self-reported health
Background Health literacy may constitute a modifiable determinant of health behaviour and affect cardiovascular disease prevention. This study investigates the associations between health literacy and health behaviour as well as health status. Design A cross-sectional study on a population-based sample of people with acute myocardial infarction, angina pectoris or stroke ( N = 3116). Methods Health literacy was assessed using two dimensions from…
Post–Myocardial Infarction Anxiety or Depressive Symptoms and Risk of New Cardiovascular Events or Death
OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between anxiety symptoms 3 months after myocardial infarction (MI) and/or new cardiovascular events and death, taking into account established risk factors, and to compare the results with those of the impact of depressive symptoms. Post-MI anxiety symptoms have been associated with a composite outcome of new cardiovascular events or death, but previous studies have not fully adjusted for potential confounder…
