“…Coronary artery disease (CAD) and the occurrence of a woman's first acute myocardial infarction occur several years later in women than in men, before menopause, the well-known biological defense that women have against CAD can postpone the onset of CAD symptoms by more than ten years. 14 The study findings showed that half of the study sample was overweight with a BMI of ≥25 to 29.9 kg/m 2 , which is similar to the results of the study conducted by Alam et al 15 . These results are not surprising, because being overweight and obese are closely associated to both known and emerging risk factors for cardiovascular disease.…”

“…Adicionalmente, Dias et al 13 identificaron que la técnica breath stacking o de máscara facial promueve una recuperación rápida de la CVF. Lo anterior es relevante teniendo en cuenta que esta variable se deteriora significativamente después de la cirugía, a causa del dolor, del efecto de la anestesia y la analgesia, y de la inserción de drenajes torácicos, evidenciándose un patrón restrictivo que predispone a complicaciones posoperatorias, a una estancia hospitalaria más larga y a mayores costos sanitarios 13,[21][22][23] . Existen aproximaciones que dan una idea de la gravedad de la limitación de la CVF en algunas enfermedades pulmonares, lo que indica que una pérdida mayor del 10% se considera un alto predictor de mortalidad y que un cambio entre un 2 y un 6% después de una intervención se considera clínicamente importante para este tipo de pacientes 24 .…”
