Effect of maximal-intensity and high-intensity interval training on exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a randomized controlled trial. Eur J Phys Rehabil Med 2024; 60:104-112. [PMID: 37906165 PMCID: PMC10938035 DOI: 10.23736/s1973-9087.23.08094-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 10/02/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND An increase in V̇O2max is important for acute myocardial infarction morbidity, and recurrence rate and intensity have been suggested as important factors in improving V̇O2max. AIM The aim of this study was to compare the effects of maximal-intensity interval training (MIIT) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on exercise capacity and health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) at low and moderate cardiac risk in cardiac rehabilitation (CR). This study secondarily aimed to compare the effects of hospital-based phase II CR and usual care. DESIGN This study is a randomized controlled trial. SETTING Outpatient Rehabilitation Setting. POPULATION Fifty-nine patients with acute MI were randomly assigned to the MIIT (N.=30) or HIIT (N.=29) group, and 32 to the usual care group. METHODS Twice a week, an intervention was conducted for nine weeks in all groups. The maximum oxygen intake (V̇O2max) and MacNew Heart Disease HRQoL were evaluated before and after intervention. RESULTS A significant interaction was observed between time and group for V̇O2max (P<0.001). The MIIT group showed greater improvement than those exhibited by the HIIT and usual care groups (P<0.05). Similarly, a significant time and group interaction was observed on the MacNew Global, Physical, and Emotional scales (P<0.05), but not on the social scale (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compared to HIIT and usual care, MIIT significantly increased the V̇O2max and was as safe as HIIT in patients with acute MI with low and moderate cardiac risk in CR. Additionally, MIIT and HIIT were superior to usual care in terms of improving the HRQoL. CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT Our results suggest that increased intensity in phase II CR could result in better outcomes in terms of V̇O2max increment in patients with acute MI and low and moderate cardiac risk in CR.

High-intensity interval training versus moderate-intensity continuous training on patient quality of life in cardiovascular disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Sci Rep 2023; 13:13915. [PMID: 37626066 PMCID: PMC10457360 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-40589-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to compare the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on the quality of life (QOL) and mental health (MH) of patients with cardiovascular disease (CVDs). Web of Science, Medline, Embase, Cochrane (CENTRAL), CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and China Science and Technology Journal databases were searched from their date of establishment to July, 2023. A total of 5798 articles were screened, of which 25 were included according to the eligibility criteria. The weighted mean difference (WMD) and standardized mean difference (SMD) were used to analyze data from the same and different indicator categories, respectively. The fixed-effects model (FE) or random-effects model (RE) combined data based on the between-study heterogeneity. There were no statistically significant differences regarding QOL, physical component summary (PCS), mental component summary (MCS), and MH, including depression and anxiety levels, between the HIIT and MICT groups [SMD = 0.21, 95% confidence interval (CI) - 0.18-0.61, Z = 1.06, P = 0.290; SMD = 0.10, 95% CI - 0.03-0.23, Z = 1.52, P = 0.128; SMD = 0.07, 95% CI - 0.05-0.20, Z = 1.13, P = 0.25; SMD = - 0.08, 95% CI - 0.40-0.25, Z = - 0.46, P = 0.646; WMD = 0.14. 95% CI - 0.56-0.84, Z = 0.39, P = 0.694, respectively]. HIIT significantly improved PCS in the coronary artery disease (CAD) population subgroup relative to MICT. HIIT was also significantly superior to MICT for physical role, vitality, and social function. We conclude that HIIT and MICT have similar effects on QOL and MH in patients with CVD, while HIIT is favorable for improving patients' self-perceived physiological functioning based on their status and social adjustment, and this effect is more significant in patients with CAD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine if supervised training, after the completion of cardiac rehabilitation program, performed for a further two years would help maintain beneficial effects achieved during prolonged outpatient cardiac rehabilitation. DESIGN Longitudinal parallel-grouped intervention study. SUBJECTS Patients with coronary artery disease (n = 41, age 59.5 ± 9.3 years), who finished cardiac rehabilitation phase III in our outpatient cardiac rehabilitation facility. INTERVENTION Two years of supervised exercise training consisting of endurance (either high intensity interval training or pyramid training) and resistance training sessions once a week. MAIN MEASUREMENT Peak physical work capacity was assessed via an ergometry testing at the beginning and at the end of the study. RESULTS Comparisons between end-of-cardiac rehabilitation and two years post cardiac rehabilitation revealed maintenance of peak physical work capacity after two years (begin vs end: 170 ± 59 W vs 167 ± 60 W; -0.5 ± 12.8%; p = 0.521). This was independent of exercise training protocols (percent change begin vs end: pyramid: 1.5 ± 11.8%; interval: -1.6 ± 13.4%; p = 0.459). CONCLUSION Improvement of physical exercise capacity gained during outpatient cardiac rehabilitation can be maintained for up to two years by once-weekly supervised exercise training. Long-term, group-based exercise programs offered at the end of cardiac rehabilitation might be an effective tool to help patients maintain their physical work capacity.

Abstract
The aim of the study is to examine high-intensity interval training (HIIT) programs and a moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) program, which are frequently used in cardiac rehabilitation programs in terms of their effects on the functional capacity and quality of life of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The study included 20 patients with CAD (mean age, 60.95 ± 5.08 years) who had undergone revascularization surgery. The participants were randomized into HIIT-short, HIIT-long, and MICT groups. All the groups participated in a 24-session exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation program. The participants' exercise capacity was evaluated using the maximal exercise test and estimated VO2max values, functional capacity using the 6-min walk test (6MWT), and quality of life using the Short Form-36 survey and MacNew Heart Disease Health-related Quality of Life (MacNew) questionnaire. It was determined that the estimated VO2max values statistically significantly improved after treatment (P < 0.05), and both HIIT groups were superior to the MICT group (P < 0.05). Only the HIIT groups achieved the minimal clinically important difference in the 6MWT distance. After treatment, only the MICT group had a statistically significant improvement in quality of life. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in relation to the improvement in the 6MWT distance and quality of life (P > 0.05). The results of our study showed that both HIIT programs were superior to MICT in improving the maximal exercise capacity of patients with CAD, and the three programs had a similar effect on quality of life.

Abstract
Background: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) combined with stress management training has been shown to be associated with fewer clinical events than CR alone. However, there have been no reports on the associations of CR with the psychological condition and detailed physical activities evaluated on the same day. Method: One hundred outpatients who participated in a CR program were graded on the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). We divided them into a high HADS group (n = 32) and a normal HADS group (n = 68) and investigated by whole patients, ischemic heart disease (IHD) patients, and heart failure patients. Results: Overall, the patient age was 70.5 ± 9.6 years, the percentage of males was 73.0%, and the body mass index was 23.4 (21.7–26.0) kg/m2. In the high HADS group, overall functional mobility was poor and the distance in a two-minute walking test was short. Especially in IHD patients, the high HADS group showed high fat mass in body composition and low exercise tolerance and ventilator equivalents in cardiopulmonary exercise test. Conclusions: Depression and anxiety involved poor physical performance in CR outpatients and particularly involved low exercise tolerance in IHD patients. To evaluate accurate physical performance, it is necessary to investigate psychological condition.

Abstract
Background: It is necessary to seek alternative therapies for depression, because side effects of medications lead to poor adherence and some patients do not achieve a clinical treatment effect. Recently the role of exercise as a low-cost and easy-to-use treatment for depression has gained attention with a number of studies showing that exercise is effective at reducing depressive symptoms and improving body functions such as cardiorespiratory system and cognitive function. Because of the heterogeneity of exercise therapy programs, there is no standardized and unified program. Few studies have summarized the specific properties of exercise programs (type, intensity, duration, and frequency) and clinical prescriptions for exercise are not mentioned in most articles. Aims: This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of exercise therapy for patients with depression, in order to appraise the evidence and outline accepted guidelines to direct individualized treatment plans for patients with depression based on their individual situations. Methods: A systematic review of English language literature including papers published from 2010 to present in PubMed was performed. Given the feasibility of prescribing exercise therapy for patients with depression, nearly 3 years of clinical studies on the treatments of depressive symptoms with exercise were first reviewed, comparing the exercise programs utilized. Conclusions: Exercise has therapeutic effects on depression in all age groups (mostly 18-65 years old), as a single therapy, an adjuvant therapy, or a combination therapy, and the benefits of exercise therapy are comparable to traditional treatments for depression. Moderate intensity exercise is enough to reduce depressive symptoms, but higher-dose exercise is better for overall functioning. Exercise therapy has become more widely used because of its benefits to the cardiovascular system, emotional state, and systemic functions. Recommendations: Aerobic exercise/mind-body exercise (3-5 sessions per week with moderate intensity lasting for 4-16 weeks) is recommended. Individualized protocols in the form of group exercise with supervision are effective at increasing adherence to treatment.
