“…Many studies indicate that mean weight does not change after AMI [27,28]. However, in our study, there was a significant decrease in mean weight when compared to baseline weight; weight loss was associated with more comorbidities at baseline, suggesting weight loss might be a marker of coronary vascular disease (CVD), severity or poorer overall health.…”

“…Later investigations of this university student population revealed reported body mass gain in 55%, body mass loss in 12% of the students, and stable body mass over the one-year period in 33% (Serlachius et al, 2007). Confirmation came from larger cohort studies showing that some stressed individuals gained body mass while others lost it (Kivimaki et al, 2006;Block et al, 2009;Lopez-Jimenez et al, 2008). Given the evidence from the above-mentioned 'classical habituation experiment' showing that two third of participants were habituators while one third were non-habituators (Kirschbaum et al, 1995), it is likely that the London first-year students also belong to a non-homogeneous study population.…”

“…15 Interestingly, another patient-based prospective study reported that weight gain after MI was not associated with increased risk of mortality from MI. 16 These findings suggest that ideal weight management policies for primary and secondary prevention may be different. There was a U-shaped relationship between BMI and mortality from cardiovascular disease.…”

“…12-14 Additionally, patients who lose weight after MI have a higher risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease. 16 Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, a pro-inflammatory cytokine, is produced by the myocardial cells under conditions of cardiac injury, such as myocardial ischemia or infarction and left ventricular pressure or volume overload. 21 Patients with chronic HF have higher TNF-α.…”
