Cardiovascular disease is common in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) independently predicts cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Pathological changes in the systemic vasculature have been proposed as potential mechanisms linking COPD to cardiovascular disease, and patients with COPD may be at increased risk of acute myocardial infarction during acute exacerbations. Notwithstanding causation, FEV1 may be a useful prognostic marker in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. This thesis examined these three aspects of cardiovascular c

Rationale Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition with extrapulmonary manifestations- cardiovascular diseases (CVD), impaired physical function, activity and increased frailty. Integrating measures of function into community assessments is hindered by the space and time required. The association of function, activity and CVD has not been extensively investigated in COPD. Objectives Explore the potential utility of Time Up and Go (TUG) as a measure of physical function in COPD Assess association of non-invasive measures of haemodynamics to physical function

Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), including cancer, cardiovascular (heart diseases or stroke), respiratory (COPD or asthma) and metabolic diseases (diabetes) are chronic conditions that represent a major global health problem of the 21st century. All of them, however, are the end-result of a complex set of gene-environment interactions that develop over years and often lead to several NCDs co-existing in the same individual (multi-morbidity). Multi-level integrated analysis has the potential to uncover the heterogeneity of NCDs by conceptualizing them as emergent properties of a complex, no

Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of hospital readmissions within 30 days. Frequent readmissions negatively affect hospital reimbursements and patient outcomes. Creative strategies, such as COPD care bundles, have been shown to reduce readmission rates according to existing studies. A COPD discharge bundle was developed and implemented at 1 community hospital in response to an identified problem with COPD readmissions. Evaluation of this quality improvement initiative was the purpose of this project study. The practice-focused quest

Background: COPD is associated with an increased lung macrophage burden. Whilst lung macrophages may self-renew, recruitment of peripheral blood monocytes from the systemic circulation is considered to represent their principal means of replenishment. Through modulating expression of monocytic chemokines CCL2/CCL3 and their respective receptors (CCR2/CCR1+CCR5), IL-6 could play a key role in facilitating the recruitment of monocytes to the lungs of COPD patients. COPD is associated with enhanced pulmonary and systemic IL-6 levels; concentrations of the soluble IL-6 receptor sIL-6R may be an im

A randomized clinical trial of continuous enteral nutrition could not successfully address whether or not the stepped decline in weight can be prevented.

COPD is a condition characterised by chronic inflammation in which macrophages arethought to play a central role. Corticosteroids are the most widely used antiinflammatoryagents to treat COPD. There is a subset of inflammatory mediatorswhich are corticosteroid insensitive and so there is a need for novel anti-inflammatorytherapies to treat COPD. One such target is the liver X receptor (LXR), a cholesterolsensing nuclear hormone receptor with anti-inflammatory properties.

Pharmaceutical Sciences<br>M.S.<br>Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), which is characterized by limitation of pulmonary air flow, is now the third major cause of death worldwide. Barrero et al. have reported that the elevation of extracellular hyperacetylated histone H3.3 in the lungs of COPD patients is associated with cytotoxicity and disease progression. They found that extracellular hyperacetylated H3.3 was cytotoxic to lung structural cells and resistant to proteasomal degradation, and that mouse antibodies to either the C- or N- termini of H3.3 could partially reverse H3.3 tox

Antecedents: La Malaltia Pulmonar Obstructiva Crònica (MPOC) és una de les principals causes de mortalitat i discapacitat a nivell mundial. L'activitat física és un dels pocs factors modificables que desacceleren l'evolució de la MPOC. No obstant, la dosi i les característiques de l'activitat física responsables de la desacceleració són encara desconegudes. En conseqüència, els objectius d'aquesta tesi són avançar i perfeccionar la metodologia i els instruments per avaluar l'activitat física realitzada pels malalts amb MPOC, aprofundir en el coneixement sobre les característiques i els patrons

It was hypothesized that Respiratory heat and moisture loss (RHML) would be altered in patients with Asthma and Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) due to the effects of airway inflammation and re-modeling. By designing a novel device incorporating humidity, temperature and flow sensors, RHML was measured in 25 normal controls, 33 asthmatics and 17 patients with COPD. In normal subjects RHML was found to be dependent on breathing pattern as defined by tidal volume and minute ventilation whereas no association was found between RHML and body surface area. At matched breathing patterns

The studies in this thesis evaluated the physical activity (PA) in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), identified strategies to optimise PA, determined the effects of a supervised walking training program on performance during the endurance shuttle walk test (ESWT) and determined the minimal detectable difference for the ESWT.The measurement techniques used included: PA using motion sensors; HRQoL assessment; Fear of Falling Questionnaire, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale; and functional exercise testing.

Rationale: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not only a common lung disease but is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) helps optimize function and independence by increasing exercise capacity, reducing symptoms and improving health related quality of life (HRQL). Exercise training is certainly a key component of the PR programs; however, many of its aspects still need to be better defined such as optimal exercise assessment and training modality for these patients. The general purpose of this thesis was to generate new knowledge that
