Cover Story: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a cardiac rehabilitation program on LV MW in patients after CABG and with preserved LV ejection fraction, the potential correlation between baseline MW indices and change after cardiac rehabilitation, and the optimal cut-off values of baseline MW indices to predict the improvement through exercise training. The results suggested that cardiac rehabilitation improved MW indices as GWI and GCW in this type of population. Furthermore, the beneficial impact was also significant on functional capacity, and lower values of MW indices were associated with greater improvement after cardiac rehabilitation. Finally, optimal cut-off values of 1522.5 mmHg% for GWI and 1740.5 mmHg% for GCW predicted improvements of ≥26.32% and ≥25%, respectively. View this paper
