Highlights ■ A single session of self-selected intensity walking reduced systolic blood pressure in individuals with peripheral artery disease. ■ Heart rate recovery responses after self-selected-intensity walking were similar to those following the guidelineprescribed exercise. ■ Self-selected intensity exercise may offer a feasible strategy for patients with claudication, balancing comfort and cardiovascular benefits. ■ These findings support flexible exercise prescriptions tailored to individual comfort without compromising the cardiovascular benefits. ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the post-exercise effects of self-selected exercise intensity […]

ABSTRACT In Brief We examined the sedentary behavior and physical activity of 260 patients with peripheral artery disease. Women engaged in more light physical activity than men did. Light physical activity was associated with lower arterial stiffness in men only, while no significant associations were found between sedentary behavior, moderate-vigorous physical activity, and cardiovascular outcomes. Highlights Women with peripheral artery disease exhibited higher blood pressure and arterial stiffness than men. Low levels of physical activity, particularly moderate to vigorous activity, […]

Highlights Sitting time increased in 73.9% of women and 84.9% of men at the onset of the pandemic. Physical activity was practiced by 23.9% of women and 39.6% of men at the onset of the pandemic. The prevalence of both women and men reporting physical mobility difficulties increased at follow-up. Hospitalization rates for reasons unrelated to COVID-19 have increased in both women and men. ABSTRACT Objective: This study analyzed the impact of sex on self-reported health and lifestyle parameters in […]

A claudicação intermitente está frequentemente associada à doença aterosclerótica, mas diagnósticos diferenciais devem ser pesquisados em pacientes sem fatores de risco tradicionais. A doença cística adventicial, de etiologia incerta, acomete em maior proporção a artéria poplítea e, eventualmente, apresenta-se como claudicação intermitente. Apresentamos um caso da doença e seu manejo cirúrgico, e discutimos a etiopatogenia, os aspectos diagnósticos e terapêuticos da enfermidade.
