Heart rate response during exercise test and cardiovascular mortality in middle-aged men
Abstract
AIMS: The objective is to study whether a heart rate (HR) response during exercise test independently predicts cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. METHODS AND RESULTS: The subjects were a representative sample of 1378 men, 42-61 years of age, from eastern Finland with neither prior coronary heart disease (CHD) nor use of beta-blockers at baseline. HR was measured at rest and during a maximal, symptom-limited exercise test at 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100% of maximal workload. During an average follow-up of 11.4 years, there were 56 deaths due to CVD. The slope of HR increase during exercise test was steeper in survivors when compared with those who died due to CVD during follow-up (P<0.001), and the difference in the steepness of HR slope between the groups was the strongest at interval 40-100% (P<0.001). In Cox-multivariable models, maximal HR-HR at 40% workload as a continuous variable was inversely associated with CVD (P=0.04), CHD (P=0.004), and all-cause (P=0.002) mortality after adjustment for known risk factors for CVD death. CONCLUSION: By considering an HR response throughout an exercise test, we found that a blunted HR increase at 40-100% of maximal workload was associated with increased CVD mortality.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
