EUR HEART J , 2004, vol. 25, n° 16, p. 1428-1437 Doc n°: 115261 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : FA333 - INFARCTUS DU MYOCARDE Few data exist to show if the prognostic value of peak exercise oxygen consumption (VO2peak) for fatal and non-fatal coronary events is different among men with low and high pre-test probability for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Our objective was to determine whether VO2peak could predict fatal and non-fatal cardiac events in 2361 men aged 42-60 years with and without conventional risk predictors of CVD or with documented CVD during a 13-year follow-up. Methods and Results Maximal. Oxygen consumption (ml/kg/min) was measured directly by using respiratory gas exchange in a cycle ergometer exercise test. Langue : ANGLAIS Tiré à part : OUI |
