Prognostic value of exercise testing.
We thank Dr Rønnevik for his comments on our article. Early works, such as the one published by Rønnevik and Von der Lippe are very valuable because they alert us to the real value of exercise testing. One of the main conclusions of the study of Rønnevik et al., namely that work capacity is associated with poor outcome in patients suspected of having myocardial infarction, fits well with our re...
متن کاملBody Mass Index: Is It The Ideal Universal Weight For Height Index?
The human body is composed of two broad compartments: (i) active tissue mass (lean body mass or fatfree mass) and (ii) the fat mass which is the principal store of energy in the body. In steady state, an individual will maintain his body weight when the input of food energy is equal to the output of energy. Under these conditions, any change in body weight indicates a change in energy balance a...
متن کاملDoes criterion of renal biopsy in asymptomatic isolated proteinuria children has already been identified?
Background: Asymptomatic isolated proteinuria (ASP) is uncommon in children and the pathological studies are not much. By now there is no consensus on the indications of renal biopsy. Purpose: To explore the optimal cut-off point of ratio of urinary protein to creatinine as an indication of renal biopsy in children with persistent ASP. Methods: 1,519 children who underwent renal biopsy from 200...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of Treadmill Exercise Testing
Background—The prognostic value of treadmill exercise testing (TMET) has been studied in selected populations. The generalizability of these data to different populations and to women is uncertain. Methods and Results—A retrospective, population-based cohort study of all persons (1452 men and 741 women) who underwent TMET in years 1987 to 1989 in Olmsted County, Minnesota, was undertaken. Indiv...
متن کاملThe prognostic value of exercise testing in elderly men.
PURPOSE Our purposes were to compare the responses to exercise testing in elderly (> or =65 years of age) and younger men, and to investigate whether exercise testing has similar prognostic value in the two age groups. METHODS We included all elderly (n = 1185) and younger (n = 2789) male veterans without established coronary heart disease who underwent routine clinical exercise testing betwe...
