TL;DR: A large majority of coronary patients have unhealthy lifestyles in terms of smoking, diet and sedentary behaviour, which adversely impacts major cardiovascular risk factors, and a majority did not achieve their blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and glucose targets.

TL;DR: The European Action on Secondary and Primary Prevention by Intervention to Reduce Events (EUROASPIRE) IV in primary care was a cross-sectional survey carried out by the European Society of Cardiology, EURObservational Research Programme in 2014-2015 in 71 centres from 14 European countries as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The prevalence, clinical and prognostic relevance of frailty in a cardiac rehabilitation setting has not yet been well characterised, despite the increasing frequency of elderly patients in cardiac rehabilitation, where frailty is likely to influence the onset, type and intensity of the exercise training programme and the design of tailored rehabilitative interventions for these patients.

TL;DR: Functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to explore whether the ability to make early predictions about the fate of sport‐specific actions is underpinned by neural regions beyond the classical AON, and found that, although involved in action prediction, the fronto‐parietal AON was similarly activated in novices and experts.

TL;DR: A digital training and decision support system automatically provides an exercise prescription according to the variables provided that may contribute in overcoming barriers in exercise implementation in common cardiovascular diseases.
