Abstract
[Purpose] To clarify the relationship between lower extremity function and activities of
daily living and characterize lower extremity function in hospitalized middle-aged and
older adults with subacute cardiovascular disease. [Participants and Methods] The Short
Physical Performance Battery, 6-minute walk distance, and functional independence measure
tests were conducted in 79 inpatients with subacute cardiovascular disease (mean age, 76.7
± 11.9 years; 34 females). Multiple regression analysis used the functional independence
measure score as the dependent variable and the Short Physical Performance Battery and
6-minute walk distance scores as independent variables. Cross-tabulations were performed
for each age group, and patients who performed the Short Physical Performance Battery and
6-minute walk distance tests were divided into two groups by their respective cutoff
values. [Results] Only the Short Physical Performance Battery (β=0.568) and 6-minute walk
distance (β=0.479) scores were adopted as significant independent variables in each
multiple regression model. The age <75 years group had the most patients with both good
lower extremity function and aerobic capacity, whereas the age ≥75 years group had the
most patients with both functions impaired. [Conclusion] Although cardiovascular disease
is generally associated with decreased aerobic capacity, many older patients with
cardiovascular disease in this study had decreased lower extremity function, too.

Association between SGLT2 Inhibitors and Cardiac Rehabilitation Outcomes in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11195956. [PMID: 36233823 PMCID: PMC9571431 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11195956] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Revised: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 10/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
The use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been associated with decreased skeletal muscle mass but remains unclear in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) undergoing comprehensive outpatient cardiac rehabilitation (CR). Therefore, this study investigates the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on the outcomes of patients with CVD and T2DM undergoing comprehensive outpatient CR. The study included 402 patients with CVD and T2DM who participated in comprehensive outpatient CR. Physical functions (grip strength, maximal quadriceps isometric strength, usual gait speed, and 6-minute walking distance) were measured at discharge as baseline and 5 months thereafter, and the association between physical functions and SGLT2 inhibitor use was reviewed. Physical functions improved regardless of SGLT2 inhibitor use. Multiple regression analysis showed that SGLT2 inhibitor use was not associated with improvement or decline in physical functions (p ≥ 0.05). The use of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with CVD and T2DM undergoing outpatient CR did not impair improvement in physical functions.
