TLDR
In this paper, the authors determined the prognostic value of objectively measured physical activity in comparison with established predictors of mortality and evaluated the prognosis value of noninvasive assessments of cardiovascular status, biomarkers of systemic inflammation, and adipokines.About:

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cardiovascular disease
TL;DR: The epidemiologic and mechanistic studies indicate that COPD is associated with a high frequency of coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias, independent of shared risk factors.

TL;DR: Changes in physical activity following pulmonary rehabilitation are best measured for 4 weekdays, including only days with at least 8 h of wearing time (during waking hours) and considering the difference in DT as a covariate in the analysis.

Body mass index and mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a meta-analysis.
TL;DR: It was showed that for patients with COPD being overweight or obese had a protective effect against mortality, however, the relationship between BMI and mortality in different classes of obesity needed further clarification in well-designed clinical studies.

TL;DR: A simple physical activity enhancement programme using pedometers can effectively improve physical activity level and quality of life in COPD patients.

Wearable technology: role in respiratory health and disease.
TL;DR: In this review, four main areas of interest for respiratory healthcare are described: pulse oximetry, pulmonary ventilation, activity tracking and air quality assessment.

TL;DR: The BODE index, a simple multidimensional grading system, is better than the FEV1 at predicting the risk of death from any cause and from respiratory causes among patients with COPD.

TL;DR: The reduction in death from all causes among patients with COPD in the combination-therapy group did not reach the predetermined level of statistical significance, and there were significant benefits in all other outcomes among these patients.
