Impact of Aerobic High-Intensity Interval Training Intervention and Mediterranean Diet Recommendations on Health-Related Quality of Life and Lifestyle Modification in Post-Myocardial Infarction Patients: Results From the INTERFARCT Surveys.

This study aims to determine the impact of 2 (low vs high volume) high-intensity interval training (HIIT) programs with Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) recommendations on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and lifestyle modification, and to examine the relationships between the changes in anxiety and depression with HRQoL and lifestyle variables after myocardial infarction (MI). Participants (n = 80) were randomized to attention control or one of the two supervised HIIT groups (2 d/weeks). Surveys before and after intervention (16 weeks): HRQoL (SF-36), anxiety and depression (HADS), MedDiet adherence (MEDAS), and physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) levels.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the effects of low-volume and high-volume high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on heart rate responses in post-myocardial infarction patients taking beta-blockers.
- Both HIIT programs resulted in significant improvements in peak heart rate and heart rate recovery, with no major differences between the two training volumes.
- The findings indicate that supervised HIIT was more beneficial than just following physical activity recommendations, with low-volume HIIT being a time-efficient alternative for enhancing heart health in this patient group.
Low-Volume High-Intensity Aerobic Interval Training Is an Efficient Method to Improve Cardiorespiratory Fitness After Myocardial Infarction: PILOT STUDY FROM THE INTERFARCT PROJECT.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined how two different high-intensity interval training (HIIT) programs (low-volume and high-volume) combined with Mediterranean diet recommendations affected cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and body composition in individuals who had experienced a myocardial infarction (MI).
- 70 participants were randomly assigned to either an attention control group or one of the two HIIT groups, where they completed a 16-week intervention, training twice a week.
- Results showed that the HIIT groups had reductions in waist circumference and improvements in CRF, while the attention control group showed no significant changes; both HIIT volumes were similarly effective, with low-volume HIIT being time-efficient for enhancing fitness.
: To determine whether improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), blood pressure (BP) and body composition previously seen after a 16-week exercise intervention (POST) with hypocaloric diet are maintained following six months (6M) of unsupervised exercise time. : Overweight/obese, physically inactive participants with primary hypertension (HTN) (n = 190) were randomly assigned into an attention control group (physical activity recommendations) or one of three supervised exercise groups. After POST, all participants received diet and physical activity advice for the following 6M but no supervision.

Method: A transversal ambispective descriptive study was carried out to compare costs and effectiveness between two forms of glycaemic control. The information was obtained from the computerized clinical history (Medora) and by referring to patients.
