Abstract
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a multifaceted respiratory disorder characterized by progressive airflow limitation and systemic implications. It has become increasingly apparent that COPD exerts its influence far beyond the respiratory system, extending its impact to various organ systems. Among these, the musculoskeletal system emerges as a central player in both the pathogenesis and management of COPD and its associated comorbidities. Muscle dysfunction and osteoporosis are prevalent musculoskeletal disorders in COPD patients, leading to a substantial decline in exercise capacity and overall health. These manifestations are influenced by systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, and hormonal imbalances, all hallmarks of COPD. Recent research has uncovered an intricate interplay between COPD and musculoskeletal comorbidities, suggesting that muscle and bone tissues may cross-communicate through the release of signalling molecules, known as "myokines" and "osteokines". We explored this dynamic relationship, with a particular focus on the role of the immune system in mediating the cross-communication between muscle and bone in COPD. Moreover, we delved into existing and emerging therapeutic strategies for managing musculoskeletal disorders in COPD. It underscores the development of personalized treatment approaches that target both the respiratory and musculoskeletal aspects of COPD, offering the promise of improved well-being and quality of life for individuals grappling with this complex condition. This comprehensive review underscores the significance of recognizing the profound impact of COPD on the musculoskeletal system and its comorbidities. By unravelling the intricate connections between these systems and exploring innovative treatment avenues, we can aspire to enhance the overall care and outcomes for COPD patients, ultimately offering hope for improved health and well-being.

A study to assess the relationship between vitamin D3 levels and the risk of acute exacerbation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Monaldi Arch Chest Dis 2024. [PMID: 38436381 DOI: 10.4081/monaldi.2024.2885] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the top three causes of mortality worldwide. Vitamin D deficiency in COPD has been associated with poor lung function and decreased muscle power, which further increases the risk of exacerbations. The role of vitamin D in preventing acute exacerbations of COPD has conflicting results in the literature. Hence, we planned this study to assess the relationship between vitamin D3 levels and the risk of acute exacerbations among COPD patients in a tertiary care center in north India. This was a prospective randomized control trial that was performed on 100 consecutive stable COPD patients attending the Department of Respiratory Medicine at Maharishi Markandeshwar Medical College and Hospital, Solan, India. The patients with subnormal vitamin D3 levels (i.e., less than 30 ng/mL) were divided into the intervention and control groups. Baseline demographic profiles, lung function, COPD assessment test (CAT) score, modified Medical Research Council grade and chest radiology were performed and repeated after 12 months in all these patients. All these parameters were recorded and compared with the baseline values obtained at the beginning of the study. Out of 100 subjects, 96 had vitamin D deficiency, of which 48 were assigned to the intervention group and 48 to the control group. Among the 100 subjects, 74 (74%) were males and 26 (26%) were females, with a mean age of 66.9±9.4 years. The mean vitamin D level was 14.71±6.69 in these 96 patients. The vitamin D level improved after 3 months of supplementation to the mean level of 45.56±16.18 in the intervention group. Vitamin D supplementation was positively correlated with a decrease in the rate of acute exacerbations in the intervention group in terms of reduction in mean CAT score (4.17 in intervention and 1.43 in non-interventional group, p<0.001), number of acute exacerbations (1.7 in intervention and -1.05 in non-interventional group, p<0.001), and number of emergency visits (p=0.0121) during the 9-month period after attainment of a normal vitamin D level. Vitamin D supplementation plays a key role in COPD patients with D3 hypovitaminosis in decreasing COPD acute exacerbations, improving the CAT score, and reducing the number of emergency visits.

Global prevalence and risk factors of depression in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis from 2000 to 2022. J Psychosom Res 2023; 175:111537. [PMID: 37907038 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychores.2023.111537] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to assess the global and regional prevalence and the potential risk factors for depression among COPD patients. METHODS Web of Science, EMBASE, PubMed, and PsycINFO databases were searched for the literature related to the prevalence and risk factors of depression in COPD. Random-effect models were performed to pool the global prevalence. Sub-group analysis and meta-regression were conducted to investigate the potential heterogeneity. Meta-analysis was performed only on the risk factors that have been reported in a minimum of three studies. RESULTS A total of 79 studies from 25 countries were included. The pooled global prevalence of variably defined depression among COPD patients was 34.5% (95% CI: 30.9-38.1). The odds of depression in COPD patients were 3.53 times higher than in non-COPD participants (95% CI: 2.35-5.29). Meta-regression results showed that region, income level, and research setting are the main sources of heterogeneity. Female sex (OR=1.92), living alone (OR=2.29), BODE index (OR=1.48), dyspnea (OR=3.02), impaired quality of life (OR=1.26), and GOLD stage III∼IV (OR=1.96) were found to be significant risk factors for depression in meta-analyses. CONCLUSIONS More than one-third of COPD patients experience depression, with marked variations in prevalence across countries and regions. This study further highlights the need for the consolidation of mental health considerations into COPD treatments. High-quality, longitudinal studies and further research are needed to gain a better understanding of risk and protective factors.

Low Lung Function Is Associated with Low Baseline Calcaneus Ultrasound T-Score but a Slow Decline in T-Score in a Taiwanese Follow-Up Population with No History of Smoking, Bronchitis, Emphysema, or Asthma. J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13050795.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a common disease, and the prevalence is increasing in patients with chronic respiratory diseases, with important implications with regard to fractures, hospitalization, and death. Due to inconsistent data and a lack of large cohort follow-up studies on the association between lung function and osteoporosis, the aim of this study was to investigate this issue. We enrolled and followed for a median of 4 years a total of 9059 participants with no history of smoking, bronchitis, emphysema, or asthma from the Taiwan Biobank. Spirometry data, including forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC), were used to assess lung function. Changes in the calcaneus ultrasound T-score (ΔT-score) were calculated as follow-up T-score-baseline T-score. A ΔT-score ≤ -3 (median value of ΔT-score) meant a fast decline in T-score. Multivariable analysis showed that lower values of FEV1 (β, 0.127, p < 0.001), FVC (β, 0.203, p < 0.001), and FEV1/FVC (β, 0.002, p = 0.013) were significantly associated with a low baseline T-score. In addition, after follow-up, higher values of FEV1 (odds ratio (OR), 1.146, p = 0.001), FVC (OR, 1.110, p = 0.042), and FEV1/FVC (OR, 1.004, p = 0.002) were significantly associated with ΔT-score ≤ -3. FEV1/FVC < 70% (OR, 0.838, p < 0.001) was significantly associated with ΔT-score ≤ -3. In conclusion, lower FEV1, FVC, and FEV1/FVC were associated with a low baseline T-score, and higher FEV1, FVC, and FEV1/FVC were associated with a rapid decline in T-score in follow-up. This suggests that lung disease may be associated with bone mineral density in the Taiwanese population with no history of smoking, bronchitis, emphysema, or asthma. Further research is needed to establish causality.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the association between sleep parameters and hypovitaminosis D in rotating shift drivers. Material and Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study on 82 male rotating shift workers (24-57 years old) with at least one cardiovascular risk factor (such as hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, abdominal obesity, physical inactivity, hypertension, and smoking). Polysomnography was used to evaluate sleep parameters. Logistic regression was used to model the association between hypovitaminosis D and sleep parameters after adjustment for relevant covariates. Results Hypovitaminosis D (< 20 ng/mL) was seen in 30.5% of the workers. Shift workers with hypovitaminosis D had lower sleep efficiency (odds ratio [OR]: 3.68; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.95-5.53), lower arterial oxygen saturation (OR: 5.35; 95% CI: 3.37-6.12), and increased microarousal index (OR: 3.85; 95% CI: 1.26-5.63) after adjusting. Conclusion We suggest that hypovitaminosis D is associated with greater sleep disturbances in rotating shift workers.

Abstract
Low vitamin D levels are common in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and have been associated with various adverse COPD-related outcomes. Recent data on vitamin D status in representative COPD cohorts in Scandinavia is lacking. This study aimed to assess vitamin D status and determinants of vitamin D insufficiency in patients with COPD who were attending a specialist secondary care COPD clinic in Southwestern Sweden. All patients who visited the COPD clinic for their first medical visit during two periods, 2017−2018 and 2021, were included in this observational study. Measurements of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), clinical data and documentation of supplements containing vitamin D were collected retrospectively from patients’ medical records. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify determinants of the primary outcome, vitamin D insufficiency (25(OH)D < 50 nmol/L). A total of 667 patients were included, and 33% had vitamin D insufficiency. The median 25(OH)D was 62 nmol/L (43.5−83.1 nmol/L). Vitamin D insufficiency was related to the male gender, current smoking habits, a lack of supplements containing vitamin D and the winter season for blood sampling. In conclusion, vitamin D insufficiency is common in patients with COPD. Men had significantly lower levels of vitamin D but took vitamin D-containing supplements less frequently compared to women. Our findings can help clinicians to identify patients who are at risk of vitamin D insufficiency and allow correction with supplementation where appropriate.

Abstract
One cluster of the extrapulmonary manifestations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is related to the brain, which includes anxiety, depression and cognitive impairment. Brain-related comorbidities are related to worsening of symptoms and increased mortality in COPD patients. In this study, a murine model of COPD was used to examine the effects of emphysema and repetitive pulmonary inflammatory events on systemic inflammatory outcomes and brain function. In addition, the effect of a dietary intervention on brain-related parameters was assessed. Adult male C57Bl/6J mice were exposed to elastase or vehicle intratracheally (i.t.) once a week on three consecutive weeks. Two weeks after the final administration, mice were i.t. exposed to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or vehicle for three times with a 10 day interval. A dietary intervention enriched with omega-3 PUFAs, prebiotic fibers, tryptophan and vitamin D was administered from the first LPS exposure onward. Behavior and cognitive function, the degree of emphysema and both pulmonary and systemic inflammation as well as blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity and neuroinflammation in the brain were assessed. A lower score in the cognitive test was observed in elastase-exposed mice. Mice exposed to elastase plus LPS showed less locomotion in the behavior test. The enriched diet seemed to reduce anxiety-like behavior over time and cognitive impairments associated with the presented COPD model, without affecting locomotion. In addition, the enriched diet restored the disbalance in splenic T-helper 1 (Th1) and Th2 cells. There was a trend toward recovering elastase plus LPS-induced decreased expression of occludin in brain microvessels, a measure of BBB integrity, as well as improving expression levels of kynurenine pathway markers in the brain by the enriched diet. The findings of this study demonstrate brain-associated comorbidities - including cognitive and behavioral impairments - in this murine model for COPD. Although no changes in lung parameters were observed, exposure to the specific enriched diet in this model appeared to improve systemic immune disbalance, BBB integrity and derailed kynurenine pathway which may lead to reduction of anxiety-like behavior and improved cognition.

Abstract
Background: The coexistence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been defined as overlap syndrome (OVS). Recently, a link between OSA, COPD and Vitamin D (Vit D) serum concentration was reported, however, evidence regarding Vit D status in patients with OVS is scarce. The aim of the present study was to evaluate Vit D serum levels and to explore the association of those levels with anthropometric, pulmonary function and sleep parameters in patients with OVS. Methods: Vit D serum levels were measured in patients diagnosed with OVS, as confirmed by overnight polysomnography and pulmonary function testing. Results: A total of 90 patients (79 males and 11 females) were included in the analysis. The patients were divided into three groups matched for age, gender, and BMI: the control group that included 30 patients (27 males and 3 females), the OSA group that included 30 patients (26 males and 4 females), and the OVS group that included 30 patients (26 males and 4 females). Patients with OVS exhibited decreased serum 25(OH)D levels compared with OSA patients and controls (14.5 vs. 18.6 vs. 21.6 ng/mL, p < 0.001). In the OVS group, multiple linear regression analysis identified AHI and FEV1, as predictors of serum 25(OH)D levels (p = 0.041 and p = 0.038, respectively). Conclusions: Lower Vit D levels have been observed in patients with OVS compared with OSA patients and non-apneic controls, indicating an increased risk of hypovitaminosis D in this population which might be associated with disease severity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Physical and mental health are often affected in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) adversely affecting disease course and quality of life. Abnormalities in whole body and cellular energy metabolism, dietary and plasma nutrient status and intestinal permeability have been well established in these patients as systemic determinants of functional decline and underexplored treatable traits. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of 1 year targeted nutrient supplementation on physical activity level and health-related quality of life in patients with COPD. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This study is a single-centre randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial in 166 patients with COPD recruited from multiple hospitals in the Netherlands. The intervention group will receive a multinutrient supplement, including vitamin D, tryptophan, long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids and prebiotic dietary fibres as main components (94 kCal per daily dose). The control group will receive an isocaloric isonitrogenous placebo. Both groups will ingest one portion per day for at least 12 months and will additionally receive counselling on healthy lifestyle and medical adherence over the course of the study. Coprimary outcomes are physical activity assessed by triaxial accelerometry and health-related quality of life measured by the EuroQol-5 dimensions questionnaire. Secondary outcomes are cognitive function, psychological well-being, physical performance, patient-reported outcomes and the metabolic profile assessed by body composition, systemic inflammation, plasma nutrient levels, intestinal integrity and microbiome composition. Outcomes will be measured at baseline and after 12 months of supplementation. In case patients are hospitalised for a COPD exacerbation, a subset outcome panel will be measured during a 4-week recovery period after hospitalisation. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study was approved by the local Ethics Committee of Maastricht University. Subjects will be included after written informed consent is provided. Study outcomes will be disseminated through presentations at (inter)national conferences and through peer-reviewed journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT03807310.

Abstract
Purpose Anxiety and depression are often underdiagnosed and affect the prognosis of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We analyzed data from the China Pulmonary Health (CPH) study to assess the prevalence of anxiety and depression in COPD patients and their relationship with disease severity. Patients and Methods A total of 57,779 subjects aged 20 years or older were recruited in the CPH study. All participants were assessed using a standard questionnaire and underwent pulmonary function tests before and after the use of a bronchodilator in local health centers. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire with a cutoff score of 8 was used to define anxiety and depression. The prevalence of anxiety and depression in patients of COPD were investigated. Multivariate logistic regression was used to investigate the effects of COPD and lung function on anxiety and depression. Results A total of 49,053 participants (20,661 men and 28,392 women) completed the questionnaire with reliable post-bronchodilator pulmonary function test results and were included in the final analysis, of which 4686 (9.55%) were diagnosed with COPD. Of the patients with COPD, 10.79% had anxiety, 13.65% had depression, and 7.08% had anxiety and depression concomitantly. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, COPD was not significantly associated with anxiety, depression, or both. After adjusting for confounders in model 1, patients in the GOLD III–IV group had a significantly higher risk of anxiety, depression, and their coincidence. After further adjusting for respiratory symptoms in model 2, lung function impairment in the GOLD III–IV group was only significantly associated with a higher risk of depression or at least one of anxiety and depression. Conclusion Anxiety and depression are prevalent in patients with COPD in China. More severe lung function impairment is significantly associated with a higher risk of depression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vitamin D deficiency is associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We examined the cross-sectional association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and lung function impairment and assessed whether vitamin D deficiency is related to long-term mortality in those with impaired lung function. DESIGN Prospective study SETTING: General practices in the UK. PARTICIPANTS 3575 men aged 60-79 years with no prevalent heart failure. OUTCOME MEASURES Airway obstruction and mortality. The Global Initiative on Obstructive Lung diseases (GOLD) spirometry criteria was used to define airway obstruction. RESULTS During the follow-up period of 20 years, there were 2327 deaths (114 COPD deaths). Vitamin D deficiency was defined as serum 25(OH)D levels<10 ng/mL; insufficiency as 25(OH)D 10-19 ng/mL; sufficient as 25(OH)D>20 ng/mL. In cross-sectional analysis, vitamin D deficiency was more prevalent in those with moderate COPD (FEV/FVC <70% and FEV1 50 to <80%; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 s and FVC, forced vital capacity) and severe COPD (FEV/FVC <70% and FEV1 <50%) but not in those with mild COPD (FEV/FVC <70% and FEV1>80%) or restrictive lung disease (FEV1/FVC >70% and FVC <80%) compared with men with normal lung function . Vitamin D deficiency was associated with increased risk of total and respiratory mortality in both men with COPD and men with restrictive lung disease after adjustment for confounders and inflammation. The adjusted HRs (95% CI) for total mortality comparing levels of 25(OH)D<10 ng/mL to 25(OH)D>=20 ng/mL were 1.39 (1.10 to 1.75), 1.52 (1.17 to 1.98), 1.58 (1.17 to 2.14) and 1.39 (0.83 to 2.33) for those with no lung impairment, restrictive lung function, mild/moderate COPD and severe COPD, respectively. CONCLUSION Men with COPD were more likely to be vitamin D deficient than those with normal lung function. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased all-cause mortality in older men with no lung impairment as well as in those with restrictive or obstructive lung impairment.

Abstract
Background Eosinophil counts increase during chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation and influence the response to different agents (such as inhaled and systemic corticosteroids), as well as increase the production of other inflammatory cytokines. However, few studies have evaluated the association between peripheral blood eosinophils with mortality rate. Objective To evaluate the association between peripheral blood eosinophils and mortality rate in COPD patients over a nine-year period. Study Design and Methods This cohort included 133 COPD patients assessed at baseline by spirometry, pulse oximetry (SpO2), complete blood count, body composition, dyspnea intensity [Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC)] and the six-minute distance test (6MWD). The Kaplan-Meier curve followed by a Log rank test was used to evaluate mortality rate related to eosinophil cutoff point categorization. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to identify the association between eosinophils and mortality with all subjects evaluated at baseline, adjusted for age, gender, mMRC, 6MWT, forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and SpO2. Results Nineteen patients did not complete follow-up and it was not possible to identify the date of death in four others. Therefore, 110 patients were included in the analysis. At baseline, 81% presented ≥150 eosinophil cells and 72% presented ≥2%. We identified a three-fold higher risk of death in those with <2% eosinophils and <150 cells. We did not identify statistical differences when using other cutoff points. Conclusion The decrease in number of peripheral eosinophils, with cutoff points at 2% and 150 cells, may be associated with a higher risk of death in COPD patients over nine years.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Low Vitamin D levels have been associated with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and acute exacerbations. OBJECTIVES There is a paucity of data on Vitamin D and COPD, its severity and exacerbations in populations that are exposed to sunlight regularly with high levels of physical activity most of their lives. METHODS Serum levels of 25-OH-Vitamin-D were assessed in 100 COPD subjects and 100 age- and gender-matched controls from the rural community-based MUDHRA cohort in South India. Levels of <20 ng/mL were defined as Vitamin D deficiency. Smoking habits, occupation, Charlson co-morbidity index, Standard of living index(SLI), body mass index(BMI), 6-minute walking distance were examined for associations with logistic regression between controls and COPD subjects. Unconditional logistic regression was used to examine the association with exacerbation of COPD. RESULTS Vitamin D deficiency was observed in 64.5% (95%CI 57.7-70.8) of the subjects in spite of regular exposure to sunlight. Subjects with COPD had higher risk of Vitamin D deficiency (Adjusted OR: 5.05; 95%CI 1.4-17.8) as compared to controls. Amongst subjects with COPD, Vitamin D deficient subjects were three times more likely to have exacerbations in the previous year (Adjusted OR:3.51; 95%CI 1.27-9.67) as compared to COPD subjects without Vitamin D deficiency. Levels of Vitamin D <20.81 ng/mL and <18.45 ng/mL had the highest levels of combined sensitivity and specificity for COPD and acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) respectively. CONCLUSION In a rural population exposed to sunlight many hours a day throughout their lives, low Vitamin D levels were associated with COPD and exacerbations of COPD.

Abstract
Vitamin D has been playing an important role in the treatment of lung diseases. The non-calcemic effects of this vitamin and its role in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has drawn significant attention recently. Many studies have been conducted to explore the relationship between the two. We tested the hypothesis that vitamin D can act as an effective therapeutic agent for COPD by reviewing the correlation between the two and effectiveness along with the safety of supplemental vitamin D when used to treat chronic bronchitis and emphysema through clinical trials. An electronic search was conducted using combinations of keywords “vitamin D” and “COPD” from PubMed and Google scholar. Only relevant, human studies of all types were included from the last decade. A total of 36 articles were selected for review. Observational studies indicate a correlation between low serum 25(OH)D levels and obstructive lung disease pathology as well as clinical outcomes. Moreover, clinical trials were aimed to understand the impact of the use of vitamin D in improving disease indexes. These clinical trials used different drug regimes, mode of administration, and intervention duration with contrasting outcomes. Hypovitaminosis D is a common and harmful variant of this group of obstructive lung diseases, and correcting this deficiency can improve exacerbations, inflammation, lung functions, symptoms, and quality of life. These benefits are more prevalent in patients with low baseline serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D(25(OH)D) levels. Peroral is the most frequently used route of drug administration, however, further work is required to explore the pharmacological properties of vitamin D. There was not enough literature available about the safety of the drug of intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES There has been inconsistent relationships between serum vitamin D levels and lung function in previous studies. However, previous studies included patients with medical diseases, affecting both vitamin D levels and lung function. Considering this view of potential confounders, we investigated if vitamin D deficiency (VDD) is linked to lung function in health screening examinee without overt medical conditions. SUBJECTS/METHODS We conducted a cohort study on 68,457 healthy Koreans (36,759 males, mean age: 37.7 years) with a health examination in 2015. Measured forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) were categorized in quartiles. To examine the relationships between VDD and lung function, adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for VDD were estimated by logistic regression. RESULTS Median vitamin D level was 14.9 ng/mL. The prevalence of VDD (defined as <20 ng/ml) was 74.5%. Compared with the highest quartile (Q4, reference), the aORs for VDD across decreasing quartiles (from Q3 to Q1) were 1.05, 1.06, 1.10 for FVC, and 1.07, 1.10, 1.10 for FEV1 (P for trend < 0.01 for both), in all subjects. Similarly, the aOR of having VDD for men also increased with decreasing quartiles of FVC and FEV1 in a dose-response manner (p for trend < 0.01 for both). However, neither FVC nor FEV1 was associated with VDD in women. CONCLUSIONS VDD was associated with decreased lung function in middle aged Korean men without overt medical conditions. VDD could be a modifiable risk factor for impaired lung function, in men but not in women.

Abstract
Vitamin D plays an active role in the modulation of innate and adaptive immune responses as well as in the protection against respiratory pathogens. Evidence for this immunomodulatory and protective role is derived from observational studies showing an association between vitamin D deficiency, chronic airway diseases and respiratory infections, and is supported by a range of experimental studies using cell culture and animal models. Furthermore, recent intervention studies have now shown that vitamin D supplementation reduces exacerbation rates in vitamin D-deficient patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma and decreases the incidence of acute respiratory tract infections. The active vitamin D metabolite, 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D (1,25(OH)2D), is known to contribute to the integrity of the mucosal barrier, promote killing of pathogens (via the induction of antimicrobial peptides), and to modulate inflammation and immune responses. These mechanisms may partly explain its protective role against infections and exacerbations in COPD and asthma patients. The respiratory mucosa is an important site of local 1,25(OH)2D synthesis, degradation and signaling, a process that can be affected by exposure to inflammatory mediators. As a consequence, mucosal inflammation and other disease-associated factors, as observed in e.g., COPD and asthma, may modulate the protective actions of 1,25(OH)2D. Here, we discuss the potential consequences of various disease-associated processes such as inflammation and exposure to pathogens and inhaled toxicants on vitamin D metabolism and local responses to 1,25(OH)2D in both immune- and epithelial cells. We furthermore discuss potential consequences of disturbed local levels of 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D for chronic lung diseases. Additional insight into the relationship between disease-associated mechanisms and local effects of 1,25(OH)2D is expected to contribute to the design of future strategies aimed at improving local levels of 1,25(OH)2D and signaling in chronic inflammatory lung diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH-vitamin D) and COPD outcomes remains unclear. Using the Subpopulations and Intermediate Outcome Measures in COPD Study (SPIROMICS), we determined associations among baseline 25-OH-vitamin D and cross-sectional and longitudinal lung function and COPD exacerbations. METHODS Serum 25-OH-vitamin D level was measured in stored samples from 1,609 SPIROMICS participants with COPD. 25-OH-vitamin D levels were modeled continuously and dichotomized as deficient (< 20 ng/mL) vs not deficient (≥ 20 ng/mL). Outcomes of interest included % predicted FEV1 (current and 1-year longitudinal decline) and COPD exacerbations (separately any and severe, occurring in prior year and first year of follow-up). RESULTS Vitamin D deficiency was present in 21% of the cohort and was more prevalent in the younger, active smokers, and blacks. Vitamin D deficiency was independently associated with lower % predicted FEV1 (by 4.11%) at enrollment (95% CI, -6.90% to -1.34% predicted FEV1; P = .004), 1.27% predicted greater rate of FEV1 decline after 1 year (95% CI, -2.32% to -0.22% predicted/y; P = .02), and higher odds of any COPD exacerbation in the prior year (OR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.00-1.74; P = .049). Each 10-ng/mL decrease in 25-OH-vitamin D was associated with lower baseline lung function (-1.04% predicted; 95% CI, -1.96% to -0.12% predicted; P = .03) and increased odds of any exacerbation in the year before enrollment (OR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.01-1.22; P = .04). CONCLUSIONS Vitamin D deficiency is associated with worse cross-sectional and longitudinal lung function and increased odds of prior COPD exacerbations. These findings identify 25-OH-vitamin D levels as a potentially useful marker of adverse COPD-related outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vitamin D may play an important role in immunity and its deficiency has been related to increased respiratory infections. The aim of this study was to detect the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and to investigate the relationship between radiological and clinical effects on adult bronchiectasis (BR) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 130 patients with BR and 73 healthy individuals (control group) were enrolled in this study. Radiological severity was assessed using Modified Reiff Score. RESULTS The mean age of patients was 41.9±9.1 years (range, 18-85). The mean 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) level was 14.7±9.6 ng/mL in BR patients and 19.8±6.9 ng/mL in the control group (p=0.001). Moreover, 95 (73.1%) adult BR patients were categorized as vitamin D deficient. Patients in the vitamin D deficiency group had significantly higher Modified Medical Research Council scores than those in the group without vitamin D deficiency (p=0.036) The mean modified Reiff score was higher in the vitamin D deficient group than the without vitamin D deficiency group (6.9±3.8 vs 4.9± 2.7, p=0.001). Additionally, the vitamin D deficient group had lower forced vital capacity% predicted value (p=0.02). This model showed that Reiff score (OR, 1.285[1.039-1.590]; p=0.021) was independently related to vitamin D deficiency. CONCLUSION We found that vitamin D deficiency is commonly seen in adult BR patients in a stable period. Moreover, it might be related to severe radiological findings on chest computed tomography and worse lung functions.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disorder in which patients are at high risk for both pulmonary and systemic complications of their disease. Medical nutrition therapy by a registered dietitian nutritionist can be an integral component of lifestyle treatment targeted at maintaining and improving outcomes, such as lung function, mortality, and quality of life. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (Academy) convened an expert workgroup to conduct a systematic review to update the COPD Evidence-Based Nutrition Practice Guideline. This publication outlines the Academy's Evidence Analysis Library methods used to complete the systematic review and guideline and examines the recommendations and supporting evidence. A total of 14 recommendations were developed based on evidence from eight conclusions. Using the Nutrition Care Process as a framework for practice, recommendations rated as strong included assessing and monitoring and evaluating body weight and medical nutrition therapy by a registered dietitian nutritionist. Weak recommendations included predicting resting and total energy expenditure. All other recommendations were rated as fair. These included individualizing the calorie prescription and macronutrient composition of the diet; assessing and monitoring and evaluating energy intake, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels, and frequency of exacerbations; and determining need for vitamin D supplementation. Fewer than one-third of the systematic review's conclusions could be used to support the recommendations due to conflicting results or limited or no evidence available. The Evidence Analysis Library 2019 COPD Evidence-Based Nutrition Practice Guideline is a valuable resource for registered dietitian nutritionists and other health care professionals caring for those with COPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D levels also correlate with lung function in patients with COPD. However, there are few reports on vitamin D deficiency and emphysema severity in COPD. This study aimed to investigate the effects of plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) level on emphysema severity in male COPD patients. METHODS A total of 151 male subjects were selected from the Korean Obstructive Lung Disease (KOLD) cohort. Subjects were subdivided into four subgroups according to their baseline plasma 25-OHD level: sufficiency (≥20 ng/ml), mild deficiency (15-20 ng/ml), moderate deficiency (10-15 ng/ml), and severe deficiency (<10 ng/ml). RESULTS Baseline computed tomography (CT) emphysema indices revealed significant differences among the subgroups (p = 0.034). A statistically significant difference was also observed among the subgroups regarding change in the CT emphysema index over 3 years (p = 0.047). The annual increase in emphysema index was more prominent in the severe deficiency group (1.34% per year) than in the other groups (0.41% per year) (p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that CT emphysema indices were different among the four subgroups and supports that severe vitamin D deficiency is associated with rapid progression of emphysema in male patients with COPD.

Abstract
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic respiratory disease characterised by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. COPD has a major impact on public health, mainly because of its increasing prevalence, morbidity and mortality. The natural course of COPD is aggravated by episodes of respiratory symptom worsening termed exacerbations that contribute to disease progression. Acute Exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) can be triggered by a multitude of different factors, including respiratory tract infections, various exposures, prior exacerbations, non-adherence to treatment and associated comorbidities. AECOPD are associated with an inexorable decline of lung function and a significantly worse survival outcome. This review will summarise the most important aspects regarding the impact of different factors that contribute to COPD exacerbations.

Abstract
Vitamin D has an immune-modulating effect, related to the pathophysiology of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, few studies have focused on the difference between patients with asthma and COPD in the association of circulating vitamin D levels with clinical outcomes. We sought to investigate the associations of circulating vitamin D levels with health-related QOL (HR-QOL), severity, and exacerbations. Subjects included 152 asthma patients and 50 COPD patients. We measured plasma concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3]. HR-QOL was assessed using the EuroQoL 5-Dimension (EQ-5D) and the 12-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) scales. Exacerbations were recorded during a one-year follow-up. Associations between plasma 25 (OH)D3 concentrations and outcome variables were evaluated using linear regression. Plasma concentrations of 25(OH)D3 were positively associated with the EQ-5D index value and the SF-12 physical component score in patients with asthma; however, such associations were not observed in patients with COPD. A significant association between severity and plasma concentrations of 25(OH)D3 was found only in patients with COPD. The hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) of plasma 25(OH)D3 concentrations (per 1 ng/mL decrease) for time to first exacerbation was 1.38 (1.10-1.75; p = 0.006) and 0.95 (0.87-1.03; p = 0.179) in patients with COPD and asthma, respectively. Lower concentrations of plasma 25(OH)D3 contributed to lower HR-QOL in patients with asthma, and were associated with severity and risk of future exacerbations in patients with COPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Exposure to cigarette smoke may stimulate the inflammatory response and activate polymorphonuclear leukocytes, thus resulting in secretion of cellular proteases. Vitamin D has the potential to modulate the inflammatory response to harmful particles in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). AIM: This study aimed to determine the levels of vitamin D, MMP-9, and TIMP-1 in COPD subjects, healthy smokers and nonsmokers of Indonesian citizens METHODS: Seventy-eight male subjects took part in this study. They comprised three groups, i.e. COPD (n = 26), healthy smokers (n = 25) and healthy non-smokers (n = 27). Serum 25(OHD) levels, MMP-9, and TIMP-1 concentrations measured by electrochemiluminescence binding assay (ECLIA) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS: The levels of vitamin D in COPD (21.96 ± 6.62ng/mL) and healthy smokers (27.87 ± 7.08 ng/mL) were significantly (p < 0.001) lower compared to that in healthy non-smokers (31.71 ± 9.24 ng/mL). On contrary, the levels of MMP-9 in COPD (11.98 ± 41.54 ng/mL) was significantly (p = 0.003) higher compared to that in healthy smokers (2.23 ± 3.39 ng/mL) and healthy non-smokers (0.89 ± 1.12 ng/mL). Whereas the levels of TIMP-1 in healthy smokers (24.64 ± 57.77 ng/mL) was significantly (p < 0.001) lower compared to that in COPD (58.40 ± 77.53 ng/mL) and healthy non-smokers (46,54 ± 71,48 ng/mL). CONCLUSION: The present study showed the lowest level of vitamin D, the highest level of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the COPD subjects.

Abstract
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by emphysema and/or obstructive bronchiolitis. Deficiency in vitamin D3 (VD3), which regulates gene expression through binding to vitamin D receptor (VDR), is associated with high risks of COPD susceptibility. Alveolar macrophages (AM), which are generated during early ontogeny and maintained in alveoli by self-renewal in response to cytokine GM-CSF, are positively correlated with severity of emphysema. However, whether and how VD3, VDR and AM interact to contribute to COPD pathogenesis at the molecular and cellular levels are largely unknown. Methods We used systems biology approaches to analyze gene expression in mouse macrophages from different tissues to identify key transcription factors (TF) for AM and infer COPD disease genes. We used RNA-seq and ChIP-seq to identify genes that are regulated by VD3 in AM. We used VDR-deficient (Vdr−/−) mice to investigate the role of VD3-VDR axis in the pathogenesis of COPD and characterized the transcriptional and functional alterations of Vdr−/− AM. Findings We find that VDR is a key TF for AM and a COPD disease gene. VDR is highly expressed in AM and in response to VD3 inhibits GM-CSF-induced AM proliferation. In Vdr−/− AM, genes involved in proliferation and immune response are upregulated. Consistently, Vdr−/− mice progressively accumulate AM and concomitantly develop emphysema without apparent infiltration of immune cells into the lung tissue. Intratracheal transfer of Vdr−/− AM into wildtype mice readily induces emphysema. The production of reactive oxygen species at basal level and in response to heme or lipopolysaccharide is elevated in Vdr−/− AM and suppressed by VD3 in wildtype AM. Interpretation These results show that the VD3-VDR axis is critical to counteract GM-CSF-induced AM proliferation and defect in this regulation leads to altered AM homeostasis and function. Our findings identify that VD3 deficiency contributes to emphysema by altering AM function without contributing to bronchiolitis. Our findings also suggest possibilities of modulating the VD3-VDR axis for inhibiting emphysema in COPD patients.

Abstract
Aging and menopause are closely related to hormonal and metabolic changes. Vitamin D is a crucial factor modulating several metabolic processes. The aim of this study was to evaluate biomarkers of bone metabolism in peri- and postmenopausal women with obstructive lung diseases. Sixty two female patients, 27 with asthma and 35 with COPD, aged over 45 years (median age 58 and 64 years, respectively) were enrolled into the study. The evaluation included lung function, bone mineral density, serum concentration of vitamin D, and bone metabolism markers. The study groups differed significantly in terms of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1); median values of 1.79 L vs. 1.16 L (p = 0.0001) and 71.2% vs. 53.0% predicted (p = 0.0072) and in vitamin D concentration (12.3 ng/ml vs. 17.6 ng/ml). Total bone mineral density (BMD) was lower in the COPD group (p = 0.0115). Serum vitamin D inversely correlated with the number of pack-years in asthma patients (r = -0.45, p = 0.0192). There was no correlation between serum vitamin D and disease duration or severity, and the Asthma Control Test (ACT) and the modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scores. The serum bone metabolism markers C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of collagen type I (BCROSS), N-terminal propeptides of procollagen type-1 (tP1NP), and N-mid osteocalcin (OCN) inversely correlated with age in the COPD, but not asthma, patients (r = -0.38, p = 0.0264; r = -0.37, p = 0.0270; and r = -0.42, p = 0.0125, respectively). We conclude that peri- and postmenopausal women with obstructive lung diseases had a decreased serum concentration of vitamin D. Furthermore, vitamin D and body mineral density were appreciably lower in women with COPD than those with asthma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vitamin D deficiency may be associated with comorbidities and poor prognosis. However, this association in patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) has not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) within the first 48 h after ICU admission are associated with prognostic indicators (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation [APACHE] II, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment [SOFA] score, Charlson comorbidity index [CCI]), clinical complications, serum C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations, mechanical ventilation duration, and mortality. METHODS Seventy-one patients were admitted to the ICU, and their concentrations of 25(OH)D in the first 48 h were analyzed. To evaluate the prognostic factors in the ICU, APACHE II scores, SOFA scores, CCI questionnaires, mechanical ventilation time, CRP, and mortality were used. RESULTS The mean concentration of 25(OH)D was 17.7 ± 8.27 ng/mL (range 3.5-37.5 ng/mL), with 91.6% presenting with deficiency at admission. Although no associations were found between serum 25(OH)D concentrations with mechanical ventilation time, CRP, mortality, and APACHE II and SOFA severity scores, we found associations with the CCI when adjusted by age (model 1: odds ratio [OR], 1.64; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.14-2.34) and by age, sex and body mass index (model 2: OR, 1.59; 95% CI, 1.10-2.34). In addition, among the comorbidities present, 25(OH)D concentrations were inversely associated with cancer (crude model OR, 3.42; 95% CI, 1.21-9.64) and liver disease (crude model OR, 9.64; 95% CI, 2.28-40.60). CONCLUSION We found a strong association between 25(OH)D concentrations and the prognostic indicator CCI and clinical complications (acute respiratory insufficiency, acute liver failure, and infections), but no associations with the prognostic indicators APACHE II and SOFA score, CRP, mechanical ventilation duration, or mortality. The main comorbidities associated with low 25(OH)D were cancer and liver disease, suggesting that the determination of 25(OH)vitamin D is relevant during the ICU stay.

Abstract
AIM The risk of vitamin D binding protein (DBP) variations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) compared with non-COPD Thai males were investigated. MATERIALS & METHODS The rs7041 and rs4588 polymorphisms of the DBP gene and protein level were measured in 136 COPD and 68 non-COPD Thai males. RESULTS In the COPD group, GC1-1 gave increased forced expiratory volume at 1 s % predicted compared with GC1-2 but with no significant difference. Significantly lower average DBP serum levels were observed in COPD than non-COPD subjects. Positive correlation between serum DBP and forced expiratory volume at 1 s % predicted was observed in non-COPD subjects. DISCUSSION & CONCLUSION DBP variations might be associated with risk factors in COPD caused by both inflammatory and vitamin D circulation processes.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) is a common disorder of multifactorial pathogenesis and is associated with obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin with an important function in calcium absorption and homeostasis, which is also implicated in several nonskeletal conditions. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is increasing worldwide and is associated with similar metabolic disturbances to OSAS. Moreover, recent data suggest that in OSAS patients serum levels of vitamin D are lower compared with non-apnoeic subjects. However, the mechanisms linking vitamin D deficiency and OSAS are not completely understood and several hypotheses have been advanced. To date, a limited number of studies have assessed the association between lower serum concentrations of vitamin D and OSAS, and have reported inconsistent results. Similarly, contradictory results have been produced by studies which evaluated the effect of continuous positive airway pressure treatment on serum vitamin D levels. The aim of this review is to summarise current knowledge on the association between OSAS and vitamin D levels. Due to multiple confounding factors, vitamin D deficiency is common among sleep apnoea patients; thus, screening should be performed when clinically indicatedhttp://ow.ly/L3ow30krmol

Abstract
Background Owing to hospitalization, reduced functional capacity and consequently, less sunlight exposure, suboptimal vitamin D status (25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D]⩽50 nmol/L) is prevalent among COPD patients. Objective This study aimed to investigate seasonal changes in vitamin D status and any associated changes in fat-free mass (FFM), muscle strength and quality of life (QoL) in COPD patients. Patients and methods COPD patients living in Northern Ireland (n=51) completed study visits at the end of winter (March/April) and at the end of summer (September/October), corresponding to the nadir and peak of vitamin D status, respectively. At both time points, serum concentration of 25(OH)D was quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, FFM (kg) was measured using bioelectrical impedance and muscle strength (kg) was measured using handgrip dynamometry. QoL was assessed using the validated St George’s Respiratory Questionnaire. Results Mean±SD 25(OH)D concentration was significantly higher at the end of summer compared to the end of winter (52.5±30.5 nmol/L vs 33.7±28.4 nmol/L, P<0.001); and house- bound patients had significantly lower 25(OH)D concentration compared to nonhousebound patients at the end of summer (42.9±4.2 vs 57.2±9.9 nmol/L; P⩽0.001). Muscle strength (at both time points) and QoL (end of summer only) were positively predicted by 25(OH)D concentration, independent of age, sex and smoking status. Conclusion This study highlights the need for health policies to include a recommendation for year-round vitamin D supplementation in housebound COPD patients, and wintertime supplementation in nonhousebound patients, to maintain optimal 25(OH)D concentrations to protect musculoskeletal health. Furthermore, an optimal vitamin D status may have potential benefits for QoL in these patients.

Abstract
Background The prevalence of individuals deficient in vitamin D (defined as a serum level of the stable metabolite 25(OH)D <50 nmol/L) is increasing in countries with low annual ultraviolet (UV) radiation and among individuals unable to perform outdoor activities, for example, COPD patients. Objective To assess the role of vitamin D deficiency, independently of seasonal variation, the peak annual value of 25(OH)D was measured in subjects with advanced COPD ± long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) and lung healthy control subjects. A method to grade the individual annual UV light exposure was designed and tested. Subjects and methods Sixty-six Caucasians with advanced COPD (28 with LTOT) and 47 control subjects were included, and the levels of 25(OH)D were determined in late summer/early fall when the annual peak was assumed. Questionnaires about COPD symptoms, general health, lifestyle, dietary habits and QoL were used to collect data. Lung function tests and blood sampling were performed. Results The peak annual 25(OH)D of COPD subjects was significantly lower than in the control subjects, but there was no significant difference between COPD patients with and without LTOT. Ongoing vitamin D supplementation was the single most important intervention to maintain 25(OH)D levels ≥50 nmol/L. Among vitamin D-deficient COPD subjects, 25(OH) D correlated positively with forced expiratory volume in 1 second as % predicted, Modified British Medical Research Council score, blood oxygenation, food portion size, Mediterranean Diet Score and Ultraviolet Score. Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency was common among healthy individuals and COPD subjects. Peak annual 25(OH)D levels of COPD subjects correlated with clinically important outcomes. The present study emphasizes the need to routinely monitor vitamin D status among patients with advanced COPD and to consider to medicate those with vitamin D deficiency with vitamin D supplementation.

Abstract
Role and importance of vitamin D deficiency in long-term prognosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) still remains undetermined. We tested the hypothesis that among individuals with COPD, those with low concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D have a poorer prognosis compared to those with normal concentrations. We studied 35,153 individuals from the general population aged 20-100 years with 25-hydroxyvitamin D measurements and spirometry, the Copenhagen City Heart Study [median follow-up 21 years (range 13 days-36 years)] and the Copenhagen General Population Study [7.1 years (3 days-13 years)]. Spirometric COPD (n = 5178; 15% of all) was defined as forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) < 0.70 in individuals without asthma and clinical COPD (n = 2033; 6%) as FEV1/FVC < 0.70 and FEV1 < 80% of predicted in ever-smokers aged > 40 years without asthma and with cumulative tobacco consumption ≥ 10 pack-years. In spirometric COPD, median age at death in years was 70.2 (95% confidence interval [CI] 64.4-71.2) for individuals with 25-hydroxyvitamin D < 12.5 nmol/L and 80.3 (74.4-83.4) for those with ≥ 50 nmol/L. In clinical COPD, corresponding values were 69.0 (63.3-70.9) and 76.2 (73.8-78.0). In spirometric COPD, multivariable adjusted hazard ratios for individuals with 25-hydroxyvitamin D < 12.5 nmol/L versus those with ≥ 50 nmol/L were 1.35 (95% CI 1.09-1.67) for all-cause mortality, 1.63 (1.00-2.64) for respiratory mortality, 1.14 (0.76-1.70) for cardiovascular mortality, 1.37 (0.90-2.06) for cancer mortality, and 1.61 (1.04-2.49) for other mortality. In clinical COPD, corresponding values were 1.39 (1.07-1.82), 1.57 (0.91-2.72), 0.88 (0.51-1.53), 1.63 (0.99-2.67), and 2.00 (1.12-3.56). Low concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D were associated with an increased risk of death in individuals with COPD. No clear pattern of association could be observed for cause of death; however, there may be an increased risk of respiratory, cancer, and other mortality. It is likely that low concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D is a marker of poor health in COPD.

Abstract
AIMS Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cardiovascular diseases are thought to be linked through various factors. We aimed to assess the relationship between airway obstruction, lung hyperinflation and diastolic filling in COPD. METHODS The study population was a subset of the COPD cohort COSYCONET. Echocardiographic parameters included the left atrial diameter (LA), early (E) and late (A) transmitral flow, mitral annulus velocity (e'), E wave deceleration time (E[dt]), and isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT). We quantified the effect of various predictors including forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and intrathoracic gas volume (ITGV) on the echocardiographic parameters by multiple linear regression and integrated the relationships into a path analysis model. RESULTS A total of 615 COPD patients were included (mean FEV1 52.6% predicted). In addition to influences of age, BMI and blood pressure, ITGV was positively related to e'-septal and negatively to LA, FEV1 positively to E(dt) (p < 0.05 each). The effect of predictors was most pronounced for LA, e'-septal and E(dt), and less for E/A, IVRT and E/e'. Path analysis was used to take into account the additional relationships between the echocardiographic parameters themselves, demonstrating that their associations with the predictors were maintained and robust. CONCLUSIONS Airway obstruction and lung hyperinflation were significantly associated with cardiac diastolic filling in patients with COPD, suggesting a decreased preload rather than an inherently impaired myocardial relaxation itself. This suggests that a reduction in obstruction and hyperinflation could help to improve cardiac filling.

Abstract
Vitamin D deficiency is common in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), yet a comprehensive analysis of environmental and genetic determinants of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentration in patients with this condition is lacking. We conducted a multi-centre cross-sectional study in 278 COPD patients aged 41-92 years in London, UK. Details of potential environmental determinants of vitamin D status and COPD symptom control and severity were collected by questionnaire, and blood samples were taken for analysis of serum 25(OH)D concentration and DNA extraction. All participants performed spirometry and underwent measurement of weight and height. Quadriceps muscle strength (QS) was measured in 134 participants, and sputum induction with enumeration of lower airway eosinophil and neutrophil counts was performed for 44 participants. Thirty-seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in 11 genes in the vitamin D pathway (DBP, DHCR7, CYP2R1, CYP27B1, CYP24A1, CYP27A1, CYP3A4, LRP2, CUBN, RXRA, and VDR) were typed using Taqman allelic discrimination assays. Linear regression was used to identify environmental and genetic factors independently associated with serum 25(OH)D concentration and to determine whether vitamin D status or genetic factors independently associated with % predicted forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), % predicted forced vital capacity (FVC), the ratio of FEV1 to FVC (FEV1:FVC), daily inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dose, respiratory quality of life (QoL), QS, and the percentage of eosinophils and neutrophils in induced sputum. Mean serum 25(OH)D concentration was 45.4nmol/L (SD 25.3); 171/278 (61.5%) participants were vitamin D deficient (serum 25[OH]D concentration <50nmol/L). Lower vitamin D status was independently associated with higher body mass index (P=0.001), lower socio-economic position (P=0.037), lack of vitamin D supplement consumption (P<0.001), sampling in Winter or Spring (P for trend=0.006) and lack of a recent sunny holiday (P=0.002). Vitamin D deficiency associated with reduced % predicted FEV1 (P for trend=0.060) and % predicted FVC (P for trend=0.003), but it did not associate with FEV1:FVC, ICS dose, QoL, QS, or the percentage of eosinophils or neutrophils in induced sputum. After correction for multiple comparisons testing, genetic variation in the vitamin D pathway was not found to associate with serum 25(OH)D concentration or clinical correlates of COPD severity. Vitamin D deficiency was common in this group of COPD patients in the UK, and it associated independently with reduced % predicted FEV1 and FVC. However, genetic variation in the vitamin D pathway was not associated with vitamin D status or severity of COPD.

Abstract
Background Although vitamin D is well known for its function in calcium homeostasis and bone mineralization, several studies have shown positive effects on muscle strength and physical function. In addition, vitamin D has been associated with pulmonary function and the incidence of airway infections. As vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, supplementation might have a beneficial effect in these patients. Objective To assess the effect of vitamin D supplementation on respiratory muscle strength and physical performance in vitamin D-deficient COPD patients. Secondary outcomes are pulmonary function, handgrip strength, exacerbation rate, and quality of life. Methods We performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot trial. Participants were randomly allocated to receive 1,200 IU vitamin D3 per day (n=24) or placebo (n=26) during 6 months. Study visits were conducted at baseline, and at 3 and 6 months after randomization. During the visits, blood was collected, respiratory muscle strength was measured (maximum inspiratory and expiratory pressure), physical performance and 6-minute walking tests were performed, and handgrip strength and pulmonary function were assessed. In addition, participants kept a diary card in which they registered respiratory symptoms. Results At baseline, the mean (standard deviation [SD]) serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration (nmol/L) was 42.3 (15.2) in the vitamin D group and 40.6 (17.0) in the placebo group. Participants with vitamin D supplementation had a larger increase in serum 25(OH)D compared to the placebo group after 6 months (mean difference (SD): +52.8 (29.8) vs +12.3 (25.1), P<0.001). Primary outcomes, respiratory muscle strength and physical performance, did not differ between the groups after 6 months. In addition, no differences were found in the 6-minute walking test results, handgrip strength, pulmonary function, exacerbation rate, or quality of life. Conclusion Vitamin D supplementation did not affect (respiratory) muscle strength or physical performance in this pilot trial in vitamin D-deficient COPD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies demonstrate an association between vitamin D (25(OH)D) deficiency and sleep disturbances, such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and short sleep duration. However, to date, no studies have concurrently and objectively evaluated the effect of these factors on 25(OH)D. OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether OSA and objective short sleep duration are independently associated with reduced 25(OH)D in an adult population sample. METHODS A cross-sectional study included 657 individuals from the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil, as part of the ERA project. Participants fulfilled questionnaires and underwent clinical evaluation, polysomnography and blood sample collection for 25(OH)D quantification. OSA was classified into three categories (mild, moderate and severe). The risk of 25(OH)D deficiency was considered as levels<30 ng/mL. Short sleep duration was defined as total sleep time<6 hours. RESULTS The risk of 25(OH)D deficiency was observed in 59.5% of the sample, affecting more individuals of the female gender, obese, with African American ethnicity, and those that were smokers, sedentary and presented hypertension and diabetes. In the final logistic model adjusted for age, gender, ethnicity, obesity, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, sedentary lifestyle, seasonality and creatinine serum levels, both OSA and short sleep duration showed significant independent associations with the risk of 25(OH)D deficiency (moderate OSA: OR for 25(OH)D<30 = 2.21, 95% CI: 1.35-3.64, p<0.01; severe OSA: OR for 25(OH)D<30 = 1.78, 95% CI: 1.06-3.00, p = 0.03; short sleep duration: OR for 25(OH)D<30 = 1.61, 95% CI: 1.15-2.26, p = 0.01). After a subgroup analysis, similar results were observed only in participants ≥50 years. CONCLUSION OSA and short sleep duration are independently associated with the risk of 25(OH)D deficiency in an adult population. Age-related changes in vitamin D metabolism and the frequency of sleep disorders may be involved in these associations. Future studies exploring whether 25(OH)D levels may modulate OSA and sleep curtailment-related outcomes are needed.

Abstract
COPD is characterized by an ongoing inflammatory process of the airways that leads to obstruction or limitation of airflow. It is mainly associated with exposure to cigarette smoke. In addition, it is considered, at present, a serious public health problem, ranking fourth in mortality worldwide. Many cells participate in the pathophysiology of COPD, the most important are neutrophils, macrophages and CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Neutrophil migration to the inflammation area could be mediated largely by cytokines related to CD4+ Th17 lymphocytes, because it has been shown that IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-22 act as inducers for CXCL8, CXCL1, CXCL5, G-CSF, and GM-CSF secretion by epithelial cells of the airways. The aims of these molecules are differentiation, proliferation and recruitment of neutrophils. Furthermore, it is believed that CD4+ lymphocytes Th17 may be involved in protection against pathogens for which Th1 and Th2 are not prepared to fight. In COPD exacerbations, there is an increased cellularity in the lung region and respiratory tract. Therefore, the increase in the number of neutrophils and macrophages in the airways and the increase in proinflammatory cytokines are directly related to the severity of exacerbations and that is the importance of the functions of Th17 profile in this entity.

Abstract
This research aimed to investigate factors associated with vitamin D deficiency and to provide data about its prevalence in patients suffering from different psychiatric illnesses. The study had a cross-sectional design and it included 220 patients of both genders, aged from 19-81 y, with a wide range of mental disorders (F00-F89), and treated in routine ambulatory and hospital practice. The researchers collected data from three sources: medical records, a study questionnaire and biochemical analysis of patients' serum samples (concentration of vitamin D measured as 25(OH)D, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium and potassium). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, methods for hypothesis testing and binary logistic regression, at the p≤0.05 level. A total of 140 patients (64%) had a deficiency of vitamin D (<12 ng/mL), and 45 (20%) had inadequate vitamin D serum levels (12-20 ng/mL), while 35 (16%) had sufficient vitamin D serum concentrations (>20 ng/mL). Among variables related to demographics, life style habits, mental illness, comorbid disorders and drugs, two of them, female gender (odds ratio (OR)=2.5, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.3-4.9, p=0.006) and using clozapine (OR=15.6, 95% CI 1.7-144.7, p=0.02), were significantly associated with vitamin D deficiency. Physical activity (OR= 0.4, 95% CI 0.2-0.9, p=0.02), exercising (OR=0.2, 95% CI <0.1-0.7, p=0.02) and offal in the diet (OR=0.5, 95% CI 0.3-0.9, p=0.03) significantly aggregated in the patients who had a 25(OH)D serum concentration above the deficiency cut-off level. Patients with mental disorders are at high risk for vitamin D deficiency, particularly females and clozapine users as well as those having no adequate physical activity or dietary habits.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vitamin D deficiency and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are both under-recognized health problems, world-wide. Although Vitamin D has long been known for calcemic effects it also has less known noncalcemic effects. Recent data have shown that Vitamin D deficiency is highly prevalent in patients with COPD and correlates with forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1 ) and FEV1 decline. The objective of this work was to review the current literature on vitamin D deficiency in relation with COPD. DATA SOURCE A literature search, using the words "vitamin D" and "COPD", was undertaken in Pubmed database. RESULTS The noncalcemic effects of vitamin D relating with COPD may be summarised as increasing antimicrobial peptide production, regulation of inflammatory response and airway remodelling. Vitamin D inhibits the production of several proinflammatory cytokines and leads to suppression Th1 and Th17 responses which may be involved in the pathogenesis of COPD. Vitamin D insufficiency may also contribute to chronic respiratory infections and airway colonization so returning vitamin D concentrations to an optimal range in patients with COPD might reduce bacterial load and concomitant exacerbations.Vitamin D is also important for COPD-related comorbodities such as osteoporosis, muscle weakness and cardiovascular diseases. Data about the effect of Vitamin D supplementation on those comorbidities in relation with COPD are been scarce. CONCLUSION Improving the blood level of Vitamin D into the desired range may have a beneficial effect bones and muscles, but more studies are needed to test to test that hypothesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to assess Vitamin D (VD) abnormalities in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), to study its association with clinical and polygraphic data, and to correlate VD levels with interleukin-17 (IL-17). METHODS Ninety-two patients with severe OSAHS were consecutively enrolled between September 2014 and February 2016 and compared to age-, sex-, and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls. Anthropometric parameters and medical history were collected. The serum levels of VD and IL-17 were determined by radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. RESULTS Ninety-two severe OSAHS patients and thirty controls were enrolled in the study. All OSAHS patients had VD deficiency. The mean level of VD was at 7.9 ng/ml among OSAHS group versus 16.8 ng/ml among control group. IL-17A levels were elevated (20.3 pg/ml) in OSAHS group compared to healthy group (10.05 pg/ml). VD levels were negatively correlated with nocturia severity (r = -0.26; P = 0.01) and positively correlated with mean O2 saturation (r = 0.59; P = 0.02) and lowest O2 saturation (r = 0.3; P = 0.03). IL-17 levels were positively correlated with nocturia severity (r = 0.24; P = 0.03) and negatively correlated with mean O2 saturation (r = -0.42; P = 0.03). A significant negative association was observed between IL-7 and VD levels (r = -0.64, P = 0.2 10-4). The magnitude of this correlation was higher for important nocturia, lower MSaO2, or higher BMI. CONCLUSIONS VD deficiency in patients with severe OSAHS is common with a negative association between IL-17 and VD serum levels. Hypoxia could play an important role in this association. Further studies are needed to clarify this relationship.

Abstract
PURPOSE As studies examining the association between bone mineral density (BMD) and airflow limitation (AL) have produced conflicting results, the current one set out to analyze if and to what degree there are any correlations between these variables in a population of fit elderly women. METHODS One hundred and twenty-one non-smoking, fit and healthy women (age ≥ 65 years) underwent anthropometric assessment, laboratory testing (serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D, parathormone, and cytokine levels), pulmonary function testing (PFT), and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to evaluate BMD values of the lumbar and femoral regions. RESULTS A significant positive association was found between FEV1/FVC ratio (Tiffeneau index), a sensitive index of AL, and lumbar and femoral BMD; a 10 % increase in the FEV1/FVC ratio resulted in a significant increase of 0.025 g/cm2 in the total hip (p = 0.05), 0.027 g/cm2 in the femoral neck (p = 0.02), 0.028 g/cm2 in the femoral trochanter (p = 0.01), and 0.047 g/cm2 in the lumbar (p = 0.03) BMDs. Binary logistic analyses demonstrated more than a threefold higher risk of low BMD values for the lowest FEV1/FVC quartile in the lumbar (OR 4.62, 95 % CI 1.48-14.40, p = 0.008), total hip (OR 4.09, 95 % CI 1.28-13.05, p = 0.02 for the second quartile), and femoral trochanter regions (OR 3.90, 95 % CI 1.25-12.20, p = 0.02 for the third quartile). CONCLUSIONS AL was associated with a higher risk of reduced BMD in healthy, fit elderly women.
