Alimentary habits, Physical Activity, and Framingham Global Risk Score in Metabolic Syndrome

Abstract: BackgroundMetabolic syndrome is a complex disorder represented by a set of cardiovascular risk factors. A healthy lifestyle is strongly related to improve Quality of Life and interfere positively in the control of risk factors presented in this condition. ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of a program of lifestyle modification on the Framingham General Cardiovascular Risk Profile in subjects diagnosed with metabolic syndrome. MethodsA sub-analysis study of a randomized clinical trial controlled blind that lasted… Show more

“…Contudo, para o êxito do tratamento, torna-se fundamental a adesão do paciente à dieta recomendada para esses casos, que inclui consumir fibras, cereais integrais, legumes, frutas e peixes, diminuir o consumo de sal e evitar o consumo de açúcar, doces, frituras e embutidos [4][5][6].…”

“…However, Δage is also a possible marker of improvement in lifestyle or metabolic morbidities. In fact, in a clinical trial involving 70 subjects with MetS and a mean age of 51.4 years, randomly assigned to receive a dietary intervention alone or associated with physical activity and/or omega 3 fatty acid supplementation, vascular age significantly decreased in each group after 3 months of therapy [8]. A reduction in vascular age was also shown in an observational longitudinal evaluation of 47 obese subjects with a mean age of 39.8 years undergoing bariatric surgery.…”

“…In observational studies in the general population, vascular age has been associated with an adverse metabolic profile, including dyslipidemia, hypertension and obesity [6], and unhealthy lifestyles, such as smoking and sedentary behaviors [7], and it has been used for identifying subjects that need to undertake lifestyle modification or medical treatment to avoid CVD. The change in vascular age determined by lifestyle interventions [8] or bariatric surgery [9] have been evaluated in two studies that showed a significant improvement of estimated vascular age after a medical supervised intervention for reducing CV risk factors. Vascular age has also been assessed in specific high‐risk populations, such as cancer survivors [10] or HIV‐infected patients [11,12], for estimating their CV risk as compared with that predicted on the basis of their chronological age, or in comparison with the general population and to assess possible factors that can mediate such risks.…”

“…Several population studies, (13)(14)(15) since the classics of Framingham, the Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial (MRFIT), and the Bogalusa Heart Study, showed this relationship, which has become a global health issue and an imminent threat to the development and health of the global population. (16) During adolescence, changes in serum lipid levels can be predictive of cardiovascular events in adult life. In one phenomenon, called tracking, a propensity of children and adolescents to maintain the same cholesterol levels up to adult life was identified.…”
