Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Introduction Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is expected to be the third leading cause of premature death and disability in Canada and around the world by the year 2020. The study aims to compare objective physical activity (PA) and sedentary time in a population-based sample of adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and comparison a group, and to investigate whether these behaviors differ according to COPD severity. Methods From the 2007-2013 Canadian Health Measures Survey dataset, accelerometer and pre-bronchodilator spirometry data were available for 6441 participants, aged 35 to 79. Two weighted analyses of covariance were performed with adjustments for age, sex, body mass index, accelerometer wearing time and season, work, smoking (cotinine), education level and income. A set of sensitivity analyses were carried out to examine the possible effect of COPD, and type of control group.ResultsA cross-sectional weighted analysis indicated that 14,6% of study participants had a measured airflow obstruction consistent with COPD. Time in PA (moderate-vigorous and light PA), number of steps and sedentary duration were not significantly different in participants with COPD, taken together, compared to controls. However, moderate to severe COPD participants (stages ≥2) had a significantly lower daily time spent in PA of moderate and vigorous intensity level compared to controls.ConclusionsCanadian adults with COPD with all disease severity levels combined did not perform lower daily duration of light, moderate and vigorous PA, number of steps and higher daily sedentary time than those without airflow obstruction. Both groups are extremely sedentary and have low PA duration. Thus, “move more and sit less” public health strategy could equally target adults with or without COPD.

Objective: To define the correlation between the Fat Free Mass Index (FFMI), the muscle function, degree of airflow obstruction, the respiratory symptoms and the number of exacerbations during the last year in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Methods: Prospective and cross-sectional study of subjects older than 40 years with a clinical diagnosis of COPD who underwent measurement of the FFMI and muscular function to determine if these were correlated with the variables of severe COPD. Results: 55 patients Participated in the study. The FFMI was below 32.7% (n=18) and the strength diminished in 56.4% (n=31). In the sample, we found a direct and significant correlation between the FFMI and the FEV1* (predicted %), (p= 0,045). When analyzed by sex, men had a direct correlation between FFMI and the FEV1*(predicted %), (p=0,019), an inverse correlation between FFMI and the spirometric classification of the Global Initiative Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) (p=0,008) and between the muscular function and the symptoms (p=0, 03). In women no significant correlation was found. Conclusions: The conditions in mass and the muscular function were correlated with clinical variables and pulmonary function in men, but not in women. We did not find a correlation between corporal composition and the number of exacerbations.

Abstract Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common lung disease during middle age which one of its complications is depression. Depression is considered one of the major causes of severe disability worldwide. One of the factors that affect the severity and incidence of this disease is a lifestyle, especially dietary pattern. On the other hand, some studies showed the relationship between dietary patterns and depression. The present study aims to investigate the dietary patterns of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and its association with depression. Methods The present cross-sectional study was performed on 220 patients (mean ± SD age = 54.58 ± 5.08) with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (56.6% men, 43.4% women) from Tabriz, Iran. Questionnaires of general information, food frequency, Beck depression and physical activity were completed. The dominant dietary patterns were determined by factor analysis, and their relationship with depression was discussed by regression analysis. Results Three dominant dietary patterns were identified as healthy, unhealthy, and mixed dietary patterns. An inverse relationship was found between healthy and mixed dietary patterns with depression. There is no meaningful connection between unhealthy dietary patterns and depression. Depression had a significant inverse relationship with physical activity. There was no relationship between dietary patterns and Forced Expiratory Volume for 1 s (FEV1) and Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) criteria. A positive and significant relationship was observed between mixed dietary patterns with FEV1/FVC. Conclusion Inverse relationships exist between healthy dietary patterns and depression in patients with COPD, and improves the function of the lungs. Further studies are needed to show the exact relationship between diet and COPD depression.

Abstract Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a public health problem because it is a major cause of death in the world. Approximately 25% of patients with moderate disease and 35% with severe disease show a reduced fat-free mass (FFM). Thus, the objective of this study is to define the correlation between fat-free mass index (FFMI), muscle function, respiratory symptoms, number of exacerbations during the last year, and degree of airflow obstruction in patients with COPD. It is a prospective and cross-sectional study. The FFMI was below 32.7% (n=18) and the strength diminished by 56.4% (n=31). In the sample, we found a direct and significant correlation between the FFMI and the FEV1 (predicted %), (p= 0.045). When analysed by sex, men had a direct correlation between FFMI and the FEV1 (predicted %), (p=0.019), an inverse correlation between FFMI and the spirometric classification of the Global Initiative Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) (p=0.008), and between the muscular function and the symptoms (p=0.03). In women, no significant correlation was found. In conclusion, the conditions in mass and muscular function were correlated with clinical variables and pulmonary function in men. We did not find a correlation between corporal composition and the number of exacerbations.

History Of

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are important causes of mortality and morbidity in Malaysia. The number of tuberculosis (TB) cases in Malaysia appears to be increasing and there were 500,000 Malaysians diagnosed with COPD in 2016. A substantial number of PTB patients go on to develop post tubular airway disease. Past infection with TB has been shown to contribute to the aetiology of COPD. We conducted a one year cross-sectional study in outpatient setting involving adult subjects in Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (UKMMC) with a history of pulmonary tuberculosis three years prior to the study. We excluded subjects with bronchial asthma, COPD, interstitial lung disease and bronchiectasis. Airflow obstruction was defined as FEV1: FVC ratio <0.70. The COPD Assessment Test (CAT) questionnaire was used. Eighty-two subjects were recruited with a median age of 52.5 years (IQR 36-62). Male predominance (56.1%) with 29 (35.4%) smokers. Eighteen (22%) subjects had airflow obstruction. Six (33%) out of these subjects were smokers. Fourteen(17%) had restrictive pattern and 50 (61%) had normal spirometry results. Five subjects (22.22%) had mild obstruction, 7 (44.44%) moderate obstruction, and 6 (33.33%) had severe obstruction. There was a positive correlation between chest X-ray abnormalities and age with airflow obstruction (P<0.05). Abnormal spirometry pattern was found in 39% of subjects. Post TB-COPD incidence was 22% in those who completed TB treatment. There appeared to be an association between abnormal chest radiograph findings with airflow obstruction in subjects with history of PTB.
