BackgroundFatigue and psychophysiological reactions to mental stress are known to be problematic in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. Currently, studies exploring the relationship between fatigue and cardiovascular reactivity to stress are scarce and inconsistent. The current study aimed to investigate the links between cardiovascular response to mental stress and fatigue in CAD patients after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).MethodsThe cross-sectional study investigated 142 CAD patients (85% males, 52 ± 8 years) within 2–3 weeks after recent myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris. Fatigue symptoms were measured using Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory 20-items, while cardiovascular reactivity to stress [i.e., systolic (S) and diastolic (D) blood pressure (ΔBP), and heart rate (ΔHR)] was evaluated during Trier Social Stress Test (TSST). In addition, participants completed psychometric measures, including the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale and the Type D Scale-14. Multivariable linear regression analyses were completed to evaluate associations between fatigue and cardiovascular response to TSST, while controlling for confounders.ResultsAfter controlling for baseline levels of cardiovascular measures, age, gender, education, heart failure severity, arterial hypertension, smoking history, use of nitrates, anxiety and depressive symptoms, Type D Personality, perceived task difficulty, and perceived task efforts, cardiovascular reactivity to anticipatory stress was inversely associated with both global fatigue (ΔHR: β = –0.238; p = 0.04) and mental fatigue (ΔSBP: β = –0.244; p = 0.04; ΔHR β = –0.303; p = 0.01) as well as total fatigue (ΔSBP: β = –0.331; p = 0.01; ΔHR: β = –0.324; p = 0.01).ConclusionIn CAD patients after ACS, fatigue was linked with diminished cardiovascular function during anticipation of a mental stress challenge, even after inclusion of possible confounders. Further similar studies exploring other psychophysiological stress responses are warranted.

Conventional Risk Factors

Aim.To analyze the results of using of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) questionnaire regarding the assessment of non-conventional risk factors in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).Material and methods. Three hundred and ten patients with CAD (mean age 59,6±8,8 years, men 62,2) underwent a general clinical examination with the identification of conventional risk factors and assessing standard treatment goals. The cardiologist performed a two-stage assessment of non-conventional risk factors using the ESC questionnaire and validated questionnaires (DS-14, Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression and Anxiety) for clinical identification of anxiety, depression, type D personality.Results.In hospitalized patients, predominantly we noted severe clinical manifestations of the disease: acute coronary syndrome (51,6%), a decrease in the ejection fraction of less than 50% (40%), a history of acute myocardial infarction (29%), and a high frequency of conventional risk factors: arterial hypertension (75,8%), dyslipidemia (75,1%), obesity (40,9%). The majority of respondents did not reach the standard treatment goals: 13,8% of patients smoked, 30,9% did not follow the lipid-lowering diet, 81,3% did not follow recommendations regarding fish eating, 51,6% did not have recommended physical activity, 40,6% did not reached the target level of blood pressure, 59,3% — the target level of low-density lipoproteins, 59,8% — the target level of body mass index. We determined prevalence of following non-conventional risk factors: hostility (30,9%), type D personality (25,4%), low socio-economic status (12,2%) and anxiety (10%). Depression (5,1%), stress at work and in family life (4,5%), social exclusion (1,6%) were less common.Conclusion.The results are consistent with data obtained by foreign researchers. The use of the ESC questionnaire allows practitioners to focus on identifying nonconventional risk factors, receive data on the individual risk profile and expand the range of treatment and prevention strategies.

The Relationship

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between Type D personality and health behaviors of coronary artery disease patients and to determine the mediating effect of illness perception on this relationship. The participants were 142 coronary artery disease patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention in a university hospital in Korea. Type D personality, illness perception, and health behaviors were surveyed using structured questionnaires. The collected data were analyzed by a series of hierarchical multiple regressions. A total of 28.9 percent patients had Type D personality. Type D Patients were observed to have low illness perception and low health behaviors. There was a positive correlation between illness perception and health behaviors. The direct effect of Type D personality on health behaviors was significant ( β = –.209, p = .013). However, the indirect effect of Type D personality on health behaviors via illness perception became low and non-significant ( β = .007, p = .934). Based on the above results, it can be concluded that illness perception has a complete mediating effect on the relationship between Type D personality and health behaviors. The development of interventions that can improve illness perception is needed to improve health behaviors of Type D coronary artery disease patients.
