Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular Risk, Myocardial Injury, and Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Anant R.C. Patel,Beverly Kowlessar,Gavin C. Donaldson,Alexander J. Mackay,Richa Singh,SN George,Davinder S. Garcha,Jadwiga A. Wedzicha,John R. Hurst +8 more
TL;DR: Frequent COPD exacerbations and exacerbation frequency impact cardiovascular risk and myocardial injury, and whether this is related to airway infection and inflammation, and frequent exacerbators have greater arterial stiffness than infrequent exacerbators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human rhinovirus infection during naturally occurring COPD exacerbations
SN George,Davinder S. Garcha,Alexander J. Mackay,Anant R.C. Patel,Richa Singh,Raymond J. Sapsford,Gavin C. Donaldson,Jadwiga A. Wedzicha +7 more
TL;DR: HRV prevalence and load increased at COPD exacerbation, and resolved during recovery, and Frequent exacerbators were more likely to experience HRV infection.
Dissertation
Human Rhinovirus at Naturally Occurring COPD Exacerbation
TL;DR: Novel evidence for the development of secondary bacterial infection after HRV infection in natural exacerbations is described, and it is demonstrated thatHRV infection is associated with patient reported outcomes, emphasising the importance of rapid development of therapeutic targets for the prevention and treatment of HRV infected patients.
Journal Article
The impact of airway infection on cardiovascular risk during COPD exacerbations
Anant R.C. Patel,Gavin C. Donaldson,Beverly Kowlessar,Alexander J. Mackay,Davinder S. Garcha,SN George,Jadwiga A. Wedzicha,John R. Hurst +7 more
TL;DR: The increase in arterial stiffness during COPD exacerbations appears to be driven by airway infection and may explain the association between these infective events and increased cardiovascular risk.
