Comparison of Peripheral Arterial Response to Mental Stress in Men Versus Women With Coronary Artery Disease
2008, American Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :It is intriguing that we found remarkable differences in this study, although most of our women participants were postmenopausal. Another unique and relevant correlate is the existence of some reports suggesting that women have better coping skills with situational stressors than men.24–26 This could potentially attenuate their physiologic adrenergic response to psychological stress.

2004, ChestCitation Excerpt :Consistent with this hypothesis, we found that the subjects who performed COMT had a greater absolute change in emotional, physical, social, and global QOL compared to the AT subjects. This is an important finding, because older women with CAD have been shown to have reduced social support,20 greater emotional difficulties,21 and impaired functional capacity (Fig 1). Moreover, this finding confirms and extend previous cardiac exercise rehabilitation intervention studies2223 demonstrating that in order to attain optimal gains in overall fitness and QOL, older women with CAD should be encouraged to perform an exercise regimen that incorporates both strength training and AT.
