Assessment of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Primary Prevention
The objective of this report was to review the application of the pooled cohort equations in primary prevention and the assessment of cardiovascular health. Review Methods: Literature review was conducted using the PubMed database. In addition, the 2018 Multi-Society Guidelines on Management of Blood Cholesterol and the 2019 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Guidelines on the Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease were reviewed. Summary: Primary prevention refers to individuals with no history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, severe hypercholesterolemia, or diabetes. Fo...

Primordial Prevention of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease: A REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE
Purpose: The primordial prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) involves the prevention of the onset of its risk factors. This review explores the associations between early modifiable risk factors and the development of ASCVD in adulthood, as well as evidence-based interventions to prevent them. Review Methods: A review was conducted on the basis of an in-depth literature search including longitudinal observational data, systematic reviews and meta-analyses published in 2012 or later, clinical trials, and additional manual searches of recent literature based on reference lists of other revi...

Reference Standards for Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Brazil: A POOLED ANALYSIS AND OVERVIEW OF HETEROGENEITY IN NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL STUDIES
Conclusion: This study provides new CRF reference standards for Brazil. After pooling data from three Brazilian regions, a comparison revealed notable differences between regions, evidencing a negative gradient from Southern to Northern regions. Similarly, the international comparisons between Brazil, US, and Norway data revealed CRF heterogeneity, with differences in the V˙o2peak values and in the age relationship patterns. These findings reinforce the importance of using national- or regional-specific V˙o2peak reference values, ensuring proper CRF evaluation. (Source: Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation)

Exercise Prescription Methods and Attitudes in Cardiac Rehabilitation: A NATIONAL SURVEY
Conclusions: Cardiac rehabilitation program directors reported generally consistent exercise time and modes, but widely divergent methods and opinions toward prescribing exercise intensity. Our results suggest a need to better study and standardize exercise intensity in CR. (Source: Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation)

Comparison of Ratings of Perceived Exertion and Target Heart Rate–Based Exercise Prescription in Cardiac Rehabilitation: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED PILOT STUDY
Conclusions: We successfully implemented THRR in an all-RPE CR program without needing an HRM. Patients randomized to THRR had higher exercise HR but similar RPE ratings. The THRR may be preferable to RPE in CR populations for cardiorespiratory fitness gains, but this needs confirmation in an adequately powered trial.

Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Inflammation, and Risk of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in Middle-Aged Men: A COHORT STUDY
Conclusions: Both hsCRP and CRF are associated with COPD risk in middle-aged men. However, high CRF levels attenuate the increased COPD risk related to high hsCRP levels. (Source: Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation)

Clinical Outcomes and Qualitative Perceptions of In-person, Hybrid, and Virtual Cardiac Rehabilitation
Conclusions: Hybrid and virtual CR were associated with similar improvements in functional capacity to in-person. Virtual and hybrid CR have the potential to expand availability without compromising outcomes. (Source: Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation)

Effects of Cardiac Rehabilitation on Physical Fitness, Physical Function, and Self-reported Outcomes in Patients ≥80 yr: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL
Purpose: The beneficial effects of exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are well known, but patients ≥80 yr have been less studied. The aim was to evaluate the effects of CR on patients with ACS ≥80 yr on peak cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), physical function, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) compared with a control group. Methods: A total of 26 patients with ACS, median age 82 (81, 84) yr, were randomized to hospital-based CR combined with a home-based exercise program (CR group) or to a control group (C) for 4 mo. Outcomes were assessed at baseline...
