Integrative Interpretation of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Tests for Cardiovascular Outcome Prediction: A Machine Learning Approach.

Integrative interpretation of cardiopulmonary exercise tests (CPETs) may improve assessment of cardiovascular (CV) risk. Here, we identified patient phenogroups based on CPET summary metrics and evaluated their predictive value for CV events. We included 2280 patients with diverse CV risk who underwent maximal CPET by cycle ergometry.

Cardiorespiratory fitness components in relation to clinical characteristics, disease state and medication intake: A patient registry study.

Background: Interpretation of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) results requires thorough understanding of test confounders such as anthropometrics, comorbidities and medication. Here, we comprehensively assessed the clinical determinants of cardiorespiratory fitness and its components in a heterogeneous patient sample.

Methods: We retrospectively collected medical and CPET data from 2320 patients (48.

The effectiveness of physical education of the Military Academy cadets during a 4-year study.

Background/aim: The main role of physical education is health and educational practices of cadets and all-round personality development. Instruction executing is successful only when the set requirements are realized. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of physical education in order to rise physical capabilities of the Military Academy cadets during a 4-year education.

[Reduction of juvenile obesity by programmed physical exercise and controlled diet].

Background/aim: Obesity is the most common disease of nutrition and is the consequence of reduced movement. Unfortunately, this problem is increasingly present in juvenile age, so that the pediatric outpatient offices are dominated by obese young people. The aim of this study was to evaluate and quantify the effects of the reducing treatment for juvenile obesity conducted by programmed physical exercise and controlled diet.

[Frequency of foot deformity in preschool girls].

Background/aim: In order to determine the moment of creation of postural disorders, regardless of the causes of this problem, it is necessary to examine the moment of entry of children into a new environment, ie. in kindergarten or school. There is a weak evidence about the age period when foot deformity occurs, and the type of these deformities.
