Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalent digoxin use and subsequent risk of death or hospitalization in ambulatory heart failure patients with a reduced ejection fraction—Findings from the Heart Failure: A Controlled Trial Investigating Outcomes of Exercise Training (HF-ACTION) randomized controlled trial
Andrew P. Ambrosy,Ankeet S. Bhatt,Amanda Stebbins,Lisa M. Wruck,Marat Fudim,Stephen J. Greene,William E. Kraus,Christopher M. O'Connor,Ileana L. Piña,David J. Whellan,Robert J. Mentz +10 more
TL;DR: Although digoxin use was associated with high‐risk clinical features, the association between digoxin therapy and outcomes was dependent on the statistical methods used for multivariable adjustment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact on cardiometabolic risk of a weight loss intervention with higher protein from lean red meat: Combined results of 2 randomized controlled trials in obese middle-aged and older adults.
Kathryn N Porter Starr,Kathryn N Porter Starr,Margery A. Connelly,Melissa C. Orenduff,Shelley R. McDonald,Shelley R. McDonald,Richard Sloane,Richard Sloane,Kim M. Huffman,William E. Kraus,Connie W. Bales,Connie W. Bales +11 more
TL;DR: These findings suggest that a hypocaloric diet with either traditional (0.8 g/kg BW/d) or higher protein or lean red meat content improves risk markers of cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes in obese middle-aged and older adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship of technetium-99m tetrofosmin-gated rest single-photon emission computed tomography myocardial perfusion imaging to death and hospitalization in heart failure patients: results from the nuclear ancillary study of the HF-ACTION trial
Allen E. Atchley,Ami E. Iskandrian,Dan Bensimhon,Stephen J. Ellis,Dalane W. Kitzman,Linda K. Shaw,Robert Pagnanelli,David J. Whellan,Julius M. Gardin,Andrew Kao,Khaled Abdul-Nour,Greg Ewald,Mary Norine Walsh,William E. Kraus,Christopher M. O'Connor,Salvador Borges-Neto +15 more
TL;DR: Gated SPECT MPI provides important information in patients with HF and reduced LVEF and provides incrementally greater prognostic information than clinical information alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Phosphatase Regulatory Gene Expression Correlates with Exercise Training Insulin Sensitivity Changes.
Matthew D Barberio,Kim M. Huffman,Mamta Giri,Eric P. Hoffman,William E. Kraus,Monica J. Hubal +5 more
TL;DR: Exercise-induced adaptations in skeletal muscle Si are related to baseline levels of Ca-regulating transcripts, which may prime the muscle for adaptation and indicate that the Si response is strongly related to key steps in metabolic regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends in cardiorespiratory fitness: The evolution of exercise treadmill testing at a single Academic Medical Center from 1970 to 2012.
Jacob P. Kelly,Brian J. Andonian,Mahesh J. Patel,Zhen Huang,Linda K. Shaw,Robert W. McGarrah,Salvador Borges-Neto,Eric J. Velazquez,William E. Kraus +8 more
TL;DR: The use of ETT at this institution has declined over time, perhaps due to changes in clinical practice, and future studies are needed to clarify the etiology of the decrease in use of such a powerful predictor of clinical outcomes in this medical care environment.
