Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise and Respiratory Training Improve Exercise Capacity and Quality of Life in Patients With Severe Chronic Pulmonary Hypertension
Derliz Mereles,Nicola Ehlken,Sandra Kreuscher,Stefanie Ghofrani,Marius M. Hoeper,Michael Halank,F. Joachim Meyer,Gabriele Karger,Jan Buss,Jana Juenger,N. Holzapfel,Christian Opitz,Jörg Winkler,Felix F.J. Herth,Heinrike Wilkens,Hugo A. Katus,Horst Olschewski,Ekkehard Grünig +17 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that respiratory and physical training could be a promising adjunct to medical treatment in severe PH and the effects add to the beneficial results of modern medical treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Respiratory Muscle Dysfunction in Congestive Heart Failure Clinical Correlation and Prognostic Significance
F. Joachim Meyer,Mathias M. Borst,Christian Zugck,Andreas Kirschke,Dieter Schellberg,Wolfgang Kübler,Markus Haass +6 more
TL;DR: In patients with CHF, inspiratory muscle strength is reduced and emerges as a novel, independent predictor of prognosis, and might serve as an additional factor to improve risk stratification and patient selection for cardiac transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Management of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in clinical practice: the INSIGHTS-IPF registry
Jürgen Behr,Michael Kreuter,Marius M. Hoeper,Hubert Wirtz,Jens Klotsche,Dirk Koschel,Stefan Andreas,Martin Claussen,Christian Grohé,H Wilkens,Winfried Randerath,Dirk Skowasch,F.

Huber,Claus Neurohr,Martin Schwaiblmair,Martin Kohlhäufl,Gert Höffken,Matthias Held,Andrea Koch,Thomas Bahmer,David Pittrow +25 more
TL;DR: This largest published registry of IPF patients shows surprising disease severity and treatment variation http://ow.ly/JbWRn
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of exercise and respiratory training on clinical progression and survival in patients with severe chronic pulmonary hypertension.
Ekkehard Grünig,Nicola Ehlken,Ardeschir Ghofrani,Gerd Staehler,F. Joachim Meyer,Jana Juenger,Christian Opitz,Hans Klose,Heinrike Wilkens,Stephan Rosenkranz,Horst Olschewski,Michael Halank +11 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that exercise and respiratory training as add-on to medical treatment may improve exercise capacity and QoL, and that they have a good long-term safety in the described setting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skeletal muscle dysfunction in patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension
Ralf Bauer,Christoph Dehnert,Palma Schoene,Arthur Filusch,Peter Bärtsch,Mathias M. Borst,Hugo A. Katus,F. Joachim Meyer +7 more
TL;DR: The present skeletal muscle dysfunction is a novel finding in patients with IPAH and the correlation with respiratory muscle dysfunction and severity of disease might indicate a generalised "myopathy" in IPAH.
