TL;DR: The considerable growth in the science and application of pulmonary rehabilitation since 2006 adds further support for its efficacy in a wide range of individuals with chronic respiratory disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulmonary rehabilitation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
TL;DR: In four important domains of quality of life (QoL) (Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire (CRQ) scores for dyspnoea, fatigue, emotional function and mastery), the effect was larger than the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of 0.4%.

Multi-sensor fusion in body sensor networks: State-of-the-art and research challenges
TL;DR: This survey discusses clear motivations and advantages of multi-sensor data fusion and particularly focuses on physical activity recognition, aiming at providing a systematic categorization and common comparison framework of the literature, by identifying distinctive properties and parameters affecting data fusion design choices at different levels.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

TL;DR: Without a global political and economic effort to reduce tobacco use, to regulate environmental exposure, and to find alternatives to the massive use of biomass fuel, COPD will remain a major health-care problem for decades to come.

Systemic Inflammation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Asthma: Relation with Comorbidities
Helgo Magnussen,Henrik Watz +1 more
TL;DR: Research should elucidate the complex relationship between obstructive lung disease, coexisting conditions, systemic inflammation accompanying these different conditions, and the causative role of systemic inflammation for comorbidities in COPD and asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular disease in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
TL;DR: The 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme-A reductase inhibitors (statins) are used widely to treat and prevent cardiovascular disease and may also produce other beneficial pleiotropic effects, perhaps indicating utility in the therapy for COPD.

TL;DR: It is indicated that high rather than low ADPN independently predict total mortality in HD patients and became a significant determinant of all-cause mortality.

TL;DR: In this article, the optimal types and amount of physical activity for secondary prevention is discussed, and the association between different types of physical activities and secondary prevention performance is examined, with a focus on secondary prevention.

Critical view on diagnosing muscle wasting by single-frequency bio-electrical impedance in COPD
TL;DR: The results of the present study emphasize the importance to accurately bare in mind the technique and cut-offs to establish muscle wasting before implementing it in the clinical practice.
