“…A possible limitation of this study is the instrument used for analyzing the LTPA, which was not built specifically for an investigation of physical activity, but for a population survey with the primary objective of identifying risk factors for cardiovascular disease and diabetes, although there were previous articles in which the same instrument was used 16,17 . The methodology used for analyzing the LTPA in these types of studies is quick and convenient for large population studies.…”

“…Obesity was attributed mainly to energy imbalance, with an excessive input and decline energy expenditure [51]. Strohacker et al [52], Vepsäläinen et al [53], and Pitanga and Lessa [54] have approved the positive effect of the intensity of physical activity on inflammation and it was evidenced by CRP and/or IL-6 which in turn benefited the CVDs and diabetes consequences. In contrast, in the present study, inflammatory status was not affected by the differenced smoking habits and hence gave different result as evidenced by Tonstad and Cowan [55] and Khand et al [56].…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of inflammatory status on metabolic abnormalities in hypertensive patients. A cross-sectional study involved 106 hypertensive patients. Interview questionnaire was used to collect personal information and lifestyle habits. Participants who suffered from acute or chronic inflammatory diseases or continue using medicines were excluded as it might affect the biomedical results. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the inflammatory status: desirable inflammatory status (DIS) (CRP ˂ 3 mg/L) and undesirable inflammatory status (UIS) (CRP ≥ 3 mg/L). All patients had a stable weight with no fluctuations > 2% of their body weight for at least 2 months prior to the study. UIS condition is associated with women and older patients. The prevalence of UIS decreased significantly as the intensity of physical activity increased, while no effect was detected due to differencing smoking habits. For anthropometric measurements, UIS patients were higher in body mass index (33.4 ± 7.06 vs. 24.8 ± 10.7 kg/m 2 , P ˂ 0.001) and overall waist circumference (112.0 ± 12 vs. 105.0 ± 19 cm, P = 0.006). The gender-adjusted difference of the waist circumference revealed that UIS patients were higher among men (105.0 ± 19 vs. 114.55 ± 14 cm, P = 0.004), while there no significant difference observed among women patients. The differences of metabolic markers explained that UIS patients were higher in fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, and triglyceride (106.0 ± 34 vs. 95.5 ± 26 mg/dL, P = 0.025; 191.0 ± 57 vs. 173.0 ± 49 mg/dL, P = 0.017; 151.5 ± 110 vs. 123.0 ± 58 mg/dL, P = 0.002; respectively). In addition, UIS patients were higher on interleukin 6 and lower on adiponectin (2.32 ± 0.80 vs. 1.40 ± 0.75 pg/ mL, P ˂ 0.001; 11.15 ± 4.5 vs. 13.5 ± 5.3 mg/L, P = 0.01; respectively), while the differences in systolic and diastolic blood pressure did not reach the level of significance. Hypertensive patients of UIS have significant risks to develop metabolic abnormalities and progress to metabolic syndrome. Managed inflammation and lifestyle habits could reduce the risk of developing metabolic abnormalities in hypertensive patients.

Background: Physical activity had a protective effect against chronic diseases and cardiovascular risk factors; however, the caloric expenditure necessary to promote diabetes prevention remains speculative. Objective: To analyze the caloric expenditure of different domains of physical activity (work, commuting, household, leisure time and total physical activity) as predictors of the absence of diabetes in adults of both sexes. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in the town of Lauro de Freitas, Bahia, Brazil (2007-2008 with a sample of 522 individuals over 18 years of age; 302 female and 220 male. Receiver Operating Characteristic Curves (ROC) were constructed and the areas below them were compared. Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity to identify the best cutoff points among the different domains of physical activity and the absence of diabetes were verified. Confidence interval at 95% was used. Results: Among the different domains of physical activity analyzed, statistical significance was only found in the areas under the ROC curve for leisure time, commuting and total physical activity. Additionally, it was observed that the caloric expenditure in total physical activity ranging from 830 kcal/week and 1.774 kcal/week were the best cutoff points for predicting the absence of diabetes. Conclusion: Physical activity should be suggested at appropriate levels for individuals of both sexes to contribute to diabetes prevention.

Abstract: SummaryBackground: Leisure time physical activity (LTPA), defined as any type of bodily movement performed during leisure time, is associated with a reduction in the risk for many cardiovascular injuries.
