Апстракт

There are no studies exploring the benefits of a diet composed of typical Brazilian food in the secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Randomized studies show that the Mediterranean diet is beneficial for patients with established cardiovascular disease or in risk for CVD development. Indeed, nutritional composition of the Mediterranean Diet is one of main references for dietary guidelines for treatment and prevention of CVD in Brazil and the world. However, in many countries, such as Brazil, most foods of the Mediterranean diet are not widely available, may be expensive or are not part of population eating habits. So, the prescription of the Mediterranean diet intervention for cardiovascular disease to the Brazilian population may not be feasible, leading to a low adherence. In this context, patients with established CVD have a low compliance to nutritional prescription. The BALANCE Program, considers 3 concepts: a) A dietary prescription guided by nutritional content recommendations from the Brazilian national guidelines; b) A nutritional education program based on fun, playful strategies and suggestions of affordable foods; and c) Intensive follow-up through one-on-one visits, group sessions, and phone calls. This is the first proposal to use these concepts concurrently with the objective to increase adherence of secondary prevention patients to the diet proposed by the guidelines. Therefore, The primary outcome is a composite of death (any cause), cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, myocardial revascularization, amputation for peripheral arterial disease, or hospitalization for unstable angina.

Опис

The BALANCE Program will investigate the effect of the Program in reducing cardiovascular events, such as cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, myocardial revascularization, amputation for peripheral arterial disease, hospitalization for unstable angina, or death in patients with established cardiovascular disease. Moreover the aim is to evaluate the effect of the dietary program on reducing cardiovascular risk factors, such as body mass index, waist circumference, blood pressure, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL), triglycerides and fasting glucose. Also the objective is to compare the dietary patterns after interventions, the effect of the intervention among nutrients and energy consumption and, finally, to evaluate the BALANCE Program comprehension.

The BALANCE Program is a randomized, multicenter, national trial with allocation concealment and intention-to-treat analysis. The elegibility criteria is patients aged 45 years or more with any evidence of established cardiovascular disease to the BALANCE program or control groups. BALANCE Program is composed by 3 concepts: a) a diet that provides 50-60% of energy from carbohydrate, 10-15% from protein, 25-35% from total fat, <7% from saturated fatty acids, <10% polyunsaturated fatty acids, <20% monounsaturated fatty acids, <1% trans fats, <200 mg/day cholesterol, 20-30 g/day fiber, and <2,400 mg/day sodium; b) Nutrition education program based on ludic strategies and indication of affordable foods; c) An intense follow up by individual and group visits and phone calls. For Control group, generalized advices to follow a low fat, low energy, low sodium and low cholesterol diet are given. The primary composite outcome is the occurrence of of death (any cause), cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, myocardial revascularization, amputation for peripheral arterial disease or hospitalization for unstable angina. Blinded assessors will adjudicate clinical events and analysis will follow the intention-to-treat principle. Were enrolled 2534 patients in 35 sites. Enrollment was open in March 2013 and ended in March 2015 and patients will be followed up to 48 months.

Behavioral: Control Diet group
Participants will be encourage to follow a generalized diet counseling prepared by dietitians based on low fat, low energy, low sodium and low cholesterol diets. They will receive a common folder composed by lists of foods that should be preferred or avoided. For example, avoidance of ultra processed foods, preference for boiled and baked foods rather than fried foods and recommendation of having at least five meals a day. This folder is equivalent of several that are given on ambulatories or hospital of Brazilian public health.

Исход

Мерки на примарниот исход

1. Composity of Major Cardiovascular Events [up to 48 month]

The primary composite outcome will be the occurrence of any of the following cardiovascular events: cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, myocardial revascularization, amputation for peripheral arterial disease, hospitalization for unstable angina, cardiovascular death, or death from any cause. The Clinical Endpoints Committee (CEC) will be responsible for adjudication of primary composite outcome components. All suspected events will be entered into the CEC tracking database and independently reviewed by two CEC physicians. If the two adjudicators agree, event adjudication will be considered complete. If there is disagreement, the final decision will be made by a third, independent adjudicator. It will be reported in events per person-years and crude rate per 1000 person-years.
