Journal ArticleDOI

Milo A. Puhan,Milo A. Puhan,Judith Garcia-Aymerich,Martin Frey,Gerben ter Riet,Josep M. Antó,Alvar Agusti,Federico P. Gómez,Roberto Rodriguez-Roisin,Karel G.M. Moons,Alphons G.H. Kessels,Ulrike Held +11 more
TL;DR: Both the updated BODE and ADO indices could lend support to the prognostic assessment of patients with COPD in specialised and primary-care settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The minimal important difference of the hospital anxiety and depression scale in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
TL;DR: The minimal important difference of the HADS is around 1.5 in COPD patients corresponding to a change from baseline of around 20%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-administration and interviewer-administration of the German Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire: instrument development and assessment of validity and reliability in two randomised studies
Milo A. Puhan,Michaela Behnke,Martin Frey,Thomas Grueter,Otto Brändli,Alfred Lichtenschopf,Gordon H. Guyatt,Holger J. Schünemann,Holger J. Schünemann +8 more
TL;DR: Lower within-person variability was responsible for the higher test-retest reliability of the interviewer-administered format while between person variability was similar for both formats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bronchial hyperresponsiveness and the development of asthma and COPD in asymptomatic individuals: SAPALDIA Cohort Study
Martin Brutsche,Sara H. Downs,Christian Schindler,Margaret W. Gerbase,Joel Schwartz,Martin Frey,Erich W. Russi,Ursula Ackermann-Liebrich,Philippe Leuenberger +8 more
TL;DR: Bronchial hyperresponsiveness is a risk factor for an accelerated decline in FEV1 and the development of asthma and COPD, irrespective of atopic status and current smokers with BHR have a particularly high loss ofFEV1.
Journal ArticleDOI
How should COPD patients exercise during respiratory rehabilitation? Comparison of exercise modalities and intensities to treat skeletal muscle dysfunction
TL;DR: There is insufficient evidence to recommend high intensity exercise for COPD patients and investigators should conduct larger high quality trials to evaluate exercise intensities in patients with moderate to severe COPD.
