A US study suggests that optimism, but not gratitude, was prospectively and independently associated with superior physical activity and fewer cardiac readmissions after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The study included 164 patients hospitalized for an ACS between 2012 and 2014. Participants underwent assessments at baseline (2 weeks post-ACS) and follow-up (6 months later). Baseline optimism was significantly associated with greater physical activity at 6 months, controlling for baseline activity and sociodemographic, medical, and negative psychological covariates. Baseline optimism was also associated with lower rates of cardiac readmissions at 6 months, controlling for age, sex, and medical comorbidity. Gratitude was minimally associated with post-ACS outcomes. In general, positive psychological constructs, such as optimism, are associated with beneficial health outcomes.

美国一项研究表明，急性冠脉综合征后，乐观情绪，而非感恩，与超强的体力活动和较少的心源性再入院呈前瞻性且独立相关。该研究共纳入2012年至2014年间164例住院的急性冠脉综合征患者。对参加者进行了基线（急性冠脉综合征后2周）和随访（6个月后）评估。经校正基线活动和社会人口，医疗和消极的心理因素等，基线乐观情绪与6个月时较强的体力活动显著相关。经校正年龄，性别和医疗合并症等，基线乐观情绪也与6个月时较低的心源性再住院率有关。感恩情绪则与急性冠脉综合征的预后相关性极小。总之，积极的心理结构，如乐观，与有益的健康结果有关。来源：http://circoutcomes.ahajournals.org/
