behavioral habits ( 3 ). Previous literature has demonstrated that both cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and adiposity are biological traits that independently associate with cardiometabolic risk in children and adolescents ( 6 , 24 , 45 ). It has been established that adiposity plays a crucial role in the

The Association of Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Ideal Cardiovascular Health in the Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study

Leanna M. Ross, Jacob L. Barber, Alexander C. McLain, R. Glenn Weaver, Xuemei Sui, Steven N. Blair, and Mark A. Sarzynski

Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is well established as having a strong association with mortality and numerous CVD risk factors. 4 Despite the strong associations between CRF and each individual component of LS7, few studies have examined the independent association of CRF and ideal CVH score. Recently, Ruiz et

Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Bone Turnover Markers in Adults With Metabolic Syndrome: The Mediator Role of Inflammation

José J. Gil-Cosano, Luis Gracia-Marco, Daniel Courteix, Bruno Lesourd, Robert Chapier, Philippe Obert, Guillaume Walther, Agnes Vinet, David Thivel, Manuel Muñoz-Torres, Ukadike C. Ugbolue, Reza Bagheri, Marek Zak, Frédéric Dutheil, and Esther Ubago-Guisado

have been consistently associated with cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in middle-aged adults ( Hong et al., 2014 ; Jae et al., 2008 ; McGavock et al., 2004 ). High levels of CRF largely negate the adverse effects of excess adiposity, which is also referred as the “fat and fit” phenomenon ( Oktay et

Cardiorespiratory Fitness Among Individuals With Psoriasis in the General Population

Patrick B. Wilson

Background:

Psoriasis confers risk for cardiometabolic disorders. Cardiorespiratory fitness is inversely associated with risk of cardiometabolic disorders in other populations, but limited data have been published assessing cardiorespiratory fitness among individuals with psoriasis. This investigation aimed to: 1) assess cardiorespiratory fitness among individuals with psoriasis in the general population; and 2) compare levels to individuals without psoriasis.

Methods:

A secondary data analysis from the 2003–2004 National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey was performed. Cardiorespiratory fitness was assessed with a treadmill test, while measures of psoriasis severity included rating of psoriasis as a life problem and body surface area involvement.

Results:

Twenty-six of 1093 participants reported a psoriasis diagnosis (population weighted prevalence 2.9%). Individuals with psoriasis had lower cardiorespiratory fitness compared with individuals without psoriasis (36.2 vs. 39.1 mL∙kg-1∙min-1, P = .009). No differences in self-reported or accelerometer physical activity were found by psoriasis diagnosis. Cardiorespiratory fitness was not significantly lower in those reporting high life impairment or body surface area involvement.

Conclusions:

Cardiorespiratory fitness may be lower in individuals with psoriasis and these differences may not be explained by self-reported disease severity measures or physical activity. Future studies should examine whether validated measures of psoriasis severity predict lower cardiorespiratory fitness.
