The role of emotional imagery and somatosensory amplification in atypical chest pain in patients with angina pectoris: a single-case experimental design.

27 Feb 2009 BACKGROUND: Atypical chest pain is a common condition that has poor symptomatic, functional, and psychological outcomes. Individuals with abnormal coronary anatomy who experience chest pain present a particular challenge to medical services as they ... Read more...

Changes in quality of life, physical activity, and symptomatic status one year after myocardial revascularization for stable angina.

5 Sep 2008 BACKGROUND: This study investigates changes of quality of life (QOL), physical activity (PA) and symptomatic status (NYHA) at one-year post-coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). METHODS: Of 568 patients undergoing a primary isolated CABG for ... Read more...

Metabolic syndrome and related dietary intervention among patients with coronary and peripheral arterial disease attending cardiovascular rehabilitation programs.

29 Nov 2007 AIM OF THE STUDY: To provide estimates of the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) or peripheral arterial obstructive disease (PAOD) attending cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs, as well as ... Read more...
