Abstract
BACKGROUND Exercise is a class 1A recommendation to improve the lives of patients with heart failure, yet less than one-third adhere to physical activity guidelines, and less than 3% attend cardiac rehabilitation. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the effect of gentle nonaerobic exercise on initial and long-term adherence in patients with heart failure. METHODS We used a qualitative descriptive approach with qualitative content analysis to analyze previously recorded interview data collected as part of the 6-month GEtting iNTo Light Exercise-Heart Failure study and looked for trends in responses among our sample. Thematic statements, representing salient aspects of the participants' experiences, were created and supported by illustrative excerpts from the data. RESULTS Twenty-two interviews were analyzed. Eight participants had ≥80% adherence, and the remaining 14 participants were super-adherers (>100% adherence). Super-adherers tended to be male and 65 years or older, and have no exercise for 3 months before the study, a body mass index ≥ 30, and poor to good Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores. Participants initially enrolled because they saw the program as an opportunity to improve a health issue and to exercise. Long-term adherence was facilitated by convenience, individualization, experiencing psychological and physical improvements, and peer fellowship. CONCLUSIONS The GEtting iNTo Light Exercise-Heart Failure study that used home-based gentle nonaerobic exercise had 64% of participants come more than was asked. It is imperative that clinicians incorporate what participants with heart failure have directly stated is important for their initiation and long-term adherence to exercise so that we can work toward bridging sedentary patients to the full exercise guidelines to reduce morbidity and mortality.

Tang CSK, Gan KQ, Lui WK. The Associations between Obsessive Compulsive Personality Traits, Self-Efficacy, and Exercise Addiction. Behav Sci (Basel) 2023; 13:857. [PMID: 37887507 PMCID: PMC10603988 DOI: 10.3390/bs13100857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Exercise addiction refers to maladaptive exercise patterns involving compulsivity and addiction-like behaviors. Exercise addiction has been found to relate to negative physical and mental health outcomes such as heart abnormalities, physical injuries, and interpersonal conflicts. Based on the social cognitive theory, this study investigated the extent to which the interplay of obsessive compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) traits and self-efficacy beliefs would influence the development and maintenance of exercise addiction. A total of 1228 college students in the United States responded to an online survey. Based on cut-off scores of the Revised Exercise Addiction Inventory, the prevalence estimates of exercise addiction were 4.0% for males and 1.8% for females. Results showed that males are more prone to exercise addiction than females. Also, OCPD traits and self-efficacy significantly predicted exercise addiction after controlling for age and sex. Self-efficacy acted as a moderator in influencing the relationship between OCPD traits and exercise addiction, especially for females. At high levels of self-efficacy, more OCPD traits were significantly associated with a higher risk of exercise addiction. However, at low levels of self-efficacy, there was no association between OCPD traits and exercise addiction. The findings suggest that public education and intervention for exercise addiction should attend to the interplay between personality factors and sex.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review with meta-analysis was to evaluate the safety, feasibility and effectiveness of exercise in the palliative care phase for people with advanced cancer. METHODS Electronic databases were searched for exercise randomised controlled trials involving individuals with incurable cancer that were published prior to April 14, 2021. Meta-analyses were performed to evaluate the effects of exercise on health outcomes. Subgroup effects for exercise mode, supervision, intervention duration and cancer diagnosis were assessed. RESULTS Twenty-two trials involving interventions ranging between 2 weeks and 6 months were included. Interventions comprised of aerobic (n = 3), resistance (n = 4), mixed-mode (n = 14) and other exercise (n = 1) modalities. Cancer types consisted of lung (n = 6), breast (n = 3), prostate (n = 2), multiple myeloma (n = 1) and mixed cancer types (n = 10). Meta-analysis of 20 RCTs involving 1840 participants showed no difference in the risk of a grade 2-4 adverse event between exercise and usual care (n = 110 adverse events (exercise: n = 66 events; usual care: n = 44 events), RD = - 0.01 (91% CI = - 0.01, 0.02); p = 0.24). Overall median recruitment, retention and adherence rates were 56%, 80% and 69%, respectively. Meta-analysis of health outcomes showed effects in favour of exercise for quality of life, fatigue, aerobic fitness and lower-body strength (SMD range = 0.27-0.48, all p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Participants who engaged in exercise experienced an increase in quality of life, fitness and strength and a decrease in fatigue. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Physical activity programs were found to be safe and feasible for people with advanced cancer in the palliative care phase.

Abstract
To explore the application effect of the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) model combined with motivational interviewing for health education in the chronic disease management of female patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In this study, 84 women with SLE who were admitted to a tertiary hospital in Tianjin from July 2021 to April 2022 were enrolled in this study and divided into observation (n = 42) and control groups (n = 42). The control group received routine health education and treatment for chronic diseases. Based on the control group, the KAP method and questionnaire survey were adopted. Health literacy and compliance in the 2 groups were compared in the first and third months after the intervention. The observation group had a higher total score of health literacy in the third month than the control group. From before the intervention to the first and third months, improvement in the observation group was compared with that in the control group (F = 36.543, P 6..001; F = 4.884, P = .03; F = 23.881, P 3..001). The observation group had a higher total compliance score in the third month than the control group (t = 5.101, P = .007). From before the intervention to the first and third months of the intervention, the improvement in the observation group demonstrated an interaction with the time group compared with that in the control group (F = 68.116, P 8..001; F = 4.884, P = .032; F = 24.789, P < .001). Motivational interviewing based on the KAP model is effective in the short-term overall health literacy of female patients with SLE, especially in terms of communication, health improvement, and information acquisition; after 3 months, it can influence and maintain high patient compliance.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) improves health outcomes and quality of life for patients with cardiovascular disease, yet only a quarter of eligible patients enroll. A myriad of CR models that use either an alternative location (ie, home-based) and/or an alternative exercise have been developed to overcome known attendance and physical limitation barriers; however, patient experiences with these models have not been systematically reviewed. Our aim is to review patient experiences with these models of CR. REVIEW METHODS We conducted a systematic review and thematic analysis of qualitative studies published between 2009 and January of 2022 from CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science, and PsycINFO. SUMMARY Twenty-five studies were included, representing the perspectives of 487 individuals who participated in an alternative model of CR. Exercises included walking, tai chi, yoga, aquatic exercise, exergaming, chair-based exercises, aerobics, physical activity trackers, and individualized exercise plans. Nineteen of 25 studies used home-based models and two used live video. Twelve studies included patients with heart failure. Patient perspectives comprised three central themes: exercise benefits, exercise facilitators, and participation barriers. Some thematic categories were reported variably by particular model/study design (eg, home-based) than by others. All alternative models of CR were found to be physically, psychologically, and/or socially beneficial to patients. Participants described facilitators and barriers that were influential in the decision to initiate or continue exercise. These patient insights are critical for innovative delivery of CR that is appealing, accommodates physical limitations, and broadens access to improve health equity.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to explore the effects of self-efficacy on adherence to self-management and medication among patients with chronic diseases in China. METHODS A cross-sectional survey of 2047 patients with chronic diseases in 120 cities across China was conducted between May and September 2021 using a multi-stage sampling method. Self-efficacy was measured using the New General Self-Efficacy Scale. The adherence to self-management was measured using the item response theory based self-management adherence scale, and the medication adherence was assessed using the Medication Adherence Scale for the Chronically Ill. The adherence to self-management and medication were evaluated by linear regression and logistic regression models, respectively. RESULTS After adjusting for all covariates, self-efficacy was significantly associated with adherence to self-management (β =0.207, 95% CI =0.064-0.350, P = 0.005), but not with medication adherence (for[middle/low]: OR = 1.119, 95% CI =0.828-1.511, P = 0.47; for[high/low]: OR = 1.281, 95% CI =0.935-1.754, P = 0.12). In subgroup analysis, self-efficacy positively correlated with adherence to self-management in patients with multiple chronic diseases (β =0.286, 95% CI =0.037-0.535, P = 0.03), but not in those with only one chronic disease (P = 0.12). Self-efficacy was not significantly associated with medication adherence in any of the subgroups. CONCLUSION Self-efficacy was positively associated with adherence to self-management in patients with chronic diseases, but not with medication adherence. Enhanced health education in patients with one chronic disease alone may have an association with better adherence to self-management and medication in daily life.

Abstract
ObjectPatients with depression are at an increased risk for developing cardiovascular diseases. The associations between electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities and the severity of psychiatric disorders, such as depression and anxiety, have not been clearly elucidated. The present study aims to investigate the associations between depression and anxiety symptoms with ECG indices, and to predict the severity of depression and anxiety using ECG indicators.Methods61 outpatients with first-episode depression from the Shanghai Pudong New Area Mental Health Center were selected and met the diagnostic criteria of DSM-IV. All participants provided self-reported scores on the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and underwent the standard 12-lead ECG assessment.ResultsAmong the 61 included outpatients (mean [standard deviation, SD] age: 37.84 [13.82] years; 41[67.2%] were female), there were 2 (3.3%) outpatients without depression symptoms, 16 (26.2%) with mild depression, 19 (31.1%) with moderate depression, and 24 (39.3%) with severe depression. Ten (16.4%) outpatients did not have anxiety symptoms, 19 (31.1%) exhibited mild anxiety, 20 (32.8%) exhibited moderate anxiety, and 12 (19.7%) exhibited severe anxiety. Only 1 (1.6%) outpatient exhibited neither depression nor anxiety, 9 (14.8%) and 1 (1.6%) outpatients only exhibited depression and anxiety, respectively, and most outpatients (50 [82.0%]) had comorbid depression and anxiety symptoms. In the correlation analysis, depression and anxiety severity levels were significantly positively correlated (r = 0.717, p < 0.01). Moreover, categorical anxiety significantly differs in QT interval (p = 0.022), and continuous SAS scores were significantly correlated with QT interval (r = 0.263, p = 0.04). In addition, the correlations between ECG measurements and both categorical depression and continuous SDS scores were not statistically significant. The comorbidity of anxiety and depression was significantly correlated with heart rate (p = 0.039) and QT interval (p = 0.002). Disorder status significantly differed with different QT intervals (p = 0.021). In the prediction analysis, QT interval was the only significant predictor (p = 0.01, b = 0.058, Odds Ratio = 1.059) for comorbid anxiety and depression symptoms.ConclusionThis study found that comorbid symptoms of depression and anxiety were significantly associated with QT interval and heart rate. Additionally, QT interval could predict the comorbidity of these two psychiatric disorders. Further prospective research in a larger and high-risk population is needed.
