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:

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.

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.

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.

C‐reactive protein and mortality in mild to moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

TL;DR: CRP measurements provide incremental prognostic information beyond that achieved by traditional markers of prognosis in patients with mild to moderate COPD, and may enable more accurate detection of patients at a high risk of mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adiponectin and inflammation: Consensus and controversy
TL;DR: In contrast with disorders typically associated with excess adiposity and positive energy balance, adiponectin levels are elevated--rather than decreased--in classic chronic inflammatory/autoimmune diseases that are unrelated to increased adipose tissue, such as rheumatoid arthritis, SLE, inflammatory bowel disease, type 1 diabetes, and cystic fibrosis.

Quantifying energy expenditure and physical activity in the context of dose response.
TL;DR: Efforts to develop equated methods of assessing PA and EE in free-living populations are needed before a systematic evaluation and interpretation of dose-response characteristics between PA and specific health-related parameters can be undertaken.

Physical Activity in Relation to Cardiovascular Disease and Total Mortality Among Men With Type 2 Diabetes
TL;DR: Physical activity was associated with reduced risk of CVD, cardiovascular death, and total mortality in men with type 2 diabetes and walking and walking pace were associated with reducing total mortality.

Mortality and Cardiovascular Risk Across the Ankle-Arm Index Spectrum Results From the Cardiovascular Health Study
TL;DR: In a cohort of community-dwelling elders, mortality risk was higher than the referent category of 1.2 among participants with AAI values above the traditional cutpoint of 0.9, and the specific association of AAI with mortality varied by age and gender.
