Risk of pharmacological treatment of anxiety and depression after admission for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Respir Med 2024; 229:107680. [PMID: 38815658 DOI: 10.1016/j.rmed.2024.107680] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anxiety and depression are very common in patients with COPD and may lead to lower quality of life and higher risk of exacerbations and mortality. This study aimed to examine the incidence of anxiety and depression within one year after admission with acute exacerbation in COPD (AECOPD). The secondary aim was to examine the characteristics of the patients who develop anxiety and depression. METHODS This retrospective cohort study used the Danish National Patient Registry. Patients aged 40-90 years admitted for COPD between 01.01.99 and 31.12.18 were included. Patients with mental disorders within 10 years before admission were excluded. Age, sex, educational level, inhaled medication, and comorbidities were evaluated. Anxiety or depression were defined by redemption of anxiolytics or antidepressants within one year after admission. RESULTS We included 97,929 patients. Anxiolytics and antidepressants were redeemed by 4 and 5 % of patients respectively. Higher age, male sex, treatment with short acting β2-agonists and short acting muscarinic antagonists, cancer and heart failure were positively associated to risk of anxiety or depression, while diabetes and treatment with triple inhalation therapy showed an inverse association. CONCLUSION Respectively four and five per cent of patients redeemed anxiolytics and antidepressants within the first year after their first severe AECOPD. Several patient characteristics were significantly associated to risk of anxiety or depression. The results from this study support that there is a risk of anxiety and depression after AECOPD in addition to the known risk of preexisting anxiety and depression.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous respiratory condition characterized by symptoms of dyspnea, cough, and sputum production. We review sex-differences in disease mechanisms, structure-function-symptom relationships, responses to therapies, and clinical outcomes in COPD with a specific focus on dyspnea. Females with COPD experience greater dyspnea and higher morbidity compared to males. Imaging studies using chest computed tomography scans have demonstrated that females with COPD tend to have smaller airways than males as well as a lower burden of emphysema. Sex-differences in lung and airway structure lead to critical respiratory mechanical constraints during exercise at a lower absolute ventilation in females compared to males, which is largely explained by sex differences in maximum ventilatory capacity. Females experience similar benefit with respect to inhaled COPD therapies, pulmonary rehabilitation, and smoking cessation compared to males. Ongoing re-assessment of potential sex-differences in COPD may offer insights into the evolution of patterns of care and clinical outcomes in COPD patients over time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigated factors associated with anxiety and depression in COPD outpatients. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 702 COPD outpatients from two major Jordanian hospitals using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was conducted. RESULTS Significant associations were found with gender (Anxiety OR: 5.29, 95%CI: 2.38-11.74; Depression OR: 0.20, 95%CI: 0.08-0.51), disease severity (Anxiety OR: 2.97, 95%CI: 1.80-4.91; Depression OR: 15.95, 95%CI: 5.32-52.63), LABA use (Anxiety OR: 16.12, 95%CI: 8.26-32.26; Depression OR: 16.95, 95%CI: 8.33-34.48), medication count (Anxiety OR: 0.73, 95%CI: 0.59-0.90; Depression OR: 0.51, 95%CI: 0.40-0.64), mMRC score (Anxiety OR: 2.41, 95%CI: 1.81-3.22; Depression OR: 2.31, 95%CI: 1.76-3.03), and inhalation technique (Anxiety OR: 0.95, 95%CI: 0.93-0.97; Depression OR: 0.92, 95%CI: 0.90-0.95). Other factors associated with anxiety included high income, urban living, diabetes, hypertension, LAMA use, and fewer COPD medications. Depression was also linked with heart disease, increased age, and longer disease duration. CONCLUSION The prevalence of anxiety and depression among COPD patients necessitates targeted interventions. Future research that recruits a more diverse sample in multiple sites and establishes the cause-effect relationship between the study predictors and outcome could provide a more robust conclusion on factors associated with anxiety and depression among COPD patients.

Cigarette smoke-induced pulmonary impairment is associated with social recognition memory impairments and alterations in microglial profiles within the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus. Brain Behav Immun 2023; 109:292-307. [PMID: 36775074 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbi.2023.02.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major, incurable respiratory condition that is primarily caused by cigarette smoking (CS). Neurocognitive disorders including cognitive dysfunction, anxiety and depression are highly prevalent in people with COPD. It is understood that increased lung inflammation and oxidative stress from CS exposure may 'spill over' into the systemic circulation to promote the onset of these extra-pulmonary comorbidities, and thus impacts the quality of life of people with COPD. The precise role of the 'spill-over' of inflammation and oxidative stress in the onset of COPD-related neurocognitive disorders are unclear. The present study investigated the impact of chronic CS exposure on anxiety-like behaviors and social recognition memory, with a particular focus on the role of the 'spill-over' of inflammation and oxidative stress from the lungs. Adult male BALB/c mice were exposed to either room air (sham) or CS (9 cigarettes per day, 5 days a week) for 24 weeks and were either daily co-administered with the NOX2 inhibitor, apocynin (5 mg/kg, in 0.01 % DMSO diluted in saline, i.p.) or vehicle (0.01 % DMSO in saline) one hour before the initial CS exposure of the day. After 23 weeks, mice underwent behavioral testing and physiological diurnal rhythms were assessed by monitoring diurnal regulation profiles. Lungs were collected and assessed for hallmark features of COPD. Consistent with its anti-inflammatory and oxidative stress properties, apocynin treatment partially lessened lung inflammation and lung function decline in CS mice. CS-exposed mice displayed marked anxiety-like behavior and impairments in social recognition memory compared to sham mice, which was prevented by apocynin treatment. Apocynin was unable to restore the decreased Bmal1-positive cells, key in cells in diurnal regulation, in the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus to that of sham levels. CS-exposed mice treated with apocynin was associated with a restoration of microglial area per cell and basal serum corticosterone. This data suggests that we were able to model the CS-induced social recognition memory impairments seen in humans with COPD. The preventative effects of apocynin on memory impairments may be via a microglial dependent mechanism.

Abstract
(1) Background: To describe trends in the prevalence of depression in men and women with COPD hospitalized in Spain (2016–2020). (2) Methods: We used a nationwide discharge database to select all patients ≥35 years with COPD. (3) Results: The prevalence of depression was 3.54-times higher in women with COPD than in men (OR 3.54; 95%CI 3.48–3.6). It decreased significantly between 2016 and 2020, although the reduction was only significant in women (12.27% in 2016 vs. 10.56% in 2020). Older age, comorbidity and the most recent years of hospital admission were associated with lower prevalence of depression in both men and women, while obesity, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and use of oxygen prior to admission were risk factors. In-hospital mortality (IHM) increased significantly over time. Older age, comorbidity, the use of oxygen prior to admission and having been hospitalized in 2020 increased the risk of IHM. Female sex was associated with a lower IHM in patients with depression and COPD. (4) Conclusions: The prevalence of depression has decreased over time in women with COPD while it has not changed significantly in men with this disease. IHM increased over time both in men and women with COPD and depression, with higher prevalence in the former.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anxiety and depression are common among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but the associations between psychiatric symptoms and specific COPD outcomes are uncertain. METHODS Associations of psychiatric symptoms (anxiety and depression) and COPD outcomes (COPD Assessment Test (CAT), modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale (mMRC), number of acute exacerbations and percentage predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1% predicted)) sets were performed by canonical correlation analysis in 876 patients with COPD. RESULTS In primary analysis, we discovered a statistically significant relationship between symptoms of anxiety/depression and COPD outcomes sets (1 - Λ = 0.11; P < .001). Symptoms of anxiety/depression and four COPD outcomes sets shared 11 % of variance. CAT was the main driver of the relationship (rs = -0.930; rs2 = 0.8649) followed by mMRC (rs = -0.632; rs2 = 0.3994) and exacerbation history (rs = -0.478; rs2 = 0.2285); FEV1% predicted did't make a significant contribution to the relationship (rs = 0.134; rs2 = 0.018). In secondary analysis, women were associated with a stronger correlation based on the shared variance between psychiatric symptoms and COPD outcomes sets (17.4 %) than men (9.8 %). LIMITATIONS Some confounding factors such as education level, income, didn't be included. There were considerably fewer women enrolled in this study than men. CONCLUSION Psychiatric symptoms were associated with COPD subjective outcomes, and more related to COPD outcomes in women.

Abstract
Depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders, including bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, occur commonly in older adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and they are often inadequately treated. We review the available evidence for benefits and risks of pharmacologic treatments (e.g. selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [SSRIs], serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors [SNRIs], tricyclic antidepressants [TCAs], antipsychotic drugs, and benzodiazepines) for common mental illnesses in older persons with COPD. Evidence to use both SSRIs/SNRIs and TCAs from randomized controlled trials is uncertain for treating major depression in patients with COPD. However, population-based findings indicate that they are widely used, and this valuable intervention (preferably SSRIs/SNRIs) should not be denied for selected patients after evaluating potential risks and benefits, especially patients presenting with major depression and suicidal ideation, when a collaborative-care approach is being used. Although there is some evidence for the short-term use of benzodiazepines for treating insomnia, breathlessness, and anxiety in patients with COPD, their long-term use should be closely monitored or avoided to reduce the increased rate of major adverse events. Currently, there are only limited data on the use of antipsychotic drugs for managing schizophrenia or bipolar disorder in older patients with COPD. Hence, clinicians should use extra caution when prescribing antipsychotic agents and be vigilant for symptoms of acute respiratory failure and other adverse effects. Psychotropic medications are clearly beneficial for younger, healthy persons with depression and anxiety; however, the risk-benefit calculation is not so clear for treating psychological problems, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder in older adults with COPD, given older-adult sensitivity to medications and the mixed findings of relatively few controlled trials.

Abstract
Chronic lung diseases are the third leading cause of death worldwide and are increasing in prevalence over time. Although much of our traditional understanding of health and disease is derived from study of the male of the species - be it animal or human - there is increasing evidence that sex and gender contribute to differences in disease risk, prevalence, presentation, severity, treatment approach, response and outcomes. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma and bronchiectasis represent the most prevalent and studied chronic lung diseases and have key sex- and gender-based differences which are critical to consider and incorporate into clinical and research approaches. Mechanistic differences present opportunities for therapeutic development whereas behavioural and clinical differences on the part of patients and providers present opportunities for greater education and understanding at multiple levels. In this review, we seek to summarise the sex- and gender-based differences in key chronic lung diseases and outline the clinical and research implications for stakeholders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disease with a multi-systemic impact that can be complicated by psycho-affective disorders. AIM To determinethe frequency of anxiety and depression in patients followed for stable COPD in a university hospital-center in Tunisand to determine the predictors of their onset. METHODS This was an analytical cross-sectional studyof patients followed for stable COPD at the pulmonology department of the Mongi Slim La Marsa Hospital. The symptoms of COPD were assessed by the Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease Assessment Test (CAT), its severity by the GOLD 2020 classification and the screening of psycho-affective disorders by the HAD scale. RESULTS One hundred and three patients were enrolled, with an average age of 64 years. The prevalence of anxiety was 44.7% and that of depression was 33.9%with 26.2% of patients with a major depressive episode. In multivariate analysis by binary logistic regression, the highest values of CAT score were associated with anxiety, depression, and the onset of a major depressive episode. Other factors associated with anxiety and the onset of a major depressive episode were associated heart rhythm disorders and the lowest BMI values. In addition, the female gender was associated with the onset of a major depressive episode. CONCLUSION Anxiety and depression are common in Tunisian patients with COPD, hence the interest of their systematic screening.

Diseño Estudio observacional, multicéntrico, prospectivo con muestreo no probabilístico, transversal. Emplazamiento Dos consultas de neumología de dos hospitales de diferente nivel asistencial. Participantes Se diagnosticaron 293 pacientes de EPOC en fase estable de la enfermedad. Intervenciones Aplicación de cuestionarios clínicos habituales en la EPOC y test HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale). Variables Variables demográficas, clínicas y funcionales de la EPOC y escala de depresión del test HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale). Resultados Se incluyeron 229 hombres (78,16%) y 64 mujeres (21,8%), con una edad media de 68,2 ± 10,3 años, de los que 93 (31,7%) eran fumadores activos y 200 (68,3%) exfumadores. El 19,45% de los pacientes tenía diagnóstico clínico previo de depresión, pero mediante el test HADS se estableció el diagnóstico de sospecha en el 32,6%. Las variables predictoras fueron: ser mujer, vivir solo y variables relacionadas con la gravedad de la enfermedad (volumen espiratorio forzado en 1 segundo [FEV1] postbroncodilatador, ser paciente de riesgo y fenotipo agudizador según criterios de la Guía Española de la EPOC [GesEPOC] y grados C y D de criterios Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease [GOLD]). Conclusiones La prevalencia de la depresión en pacientes con EPOC es alta y está infradiagnosticada. El test diagnóstico HADS es útil para establecer el diagnóstico de sospecha en las consultas de Atención Primaria y Neumología. Existen factores personales y clínicos que pueden considerar predictores y servir de orientación para determinar en qué pacientes realizar el test HADS y, en función de los resultados, derivar al paciente a una Unidad de Salud Mental para confirmar o descartar el diagnóstico.

Abstract
Objectives: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease contributes to substantial health and
economic burden worldwide. Co-morbid depression and anxiety are highly
prevalent in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Depressive
symptoms in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are associated with poorer
survival, longer hospitalisation and impaired quality of life. Literature on
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is largely derived from high-income
countries; yet 90% of deaths related to chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease occur in low- and middle-income countries. We aimed to establish the
prevalence of anxiety and depression in patients with chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, as well as the association with psychosocial
outcomes. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
patients attending outpatient primary care clinics in Karachi, Pakistan. The
Patient Health Questionnaire-9 was used to assess depression and the
Generalised Anxiety Disorder-7 scale was used for the assessment of anxiety.
Health-related quality of life was assessed with EuroQol–Five Dimensions,
social support with Oslo-3 and social stress with Life Events Checklist. We
recruited 293 subjects. Results: The prevalence of depression and anxiety in the sample was 51%
(n = 149) and 20% (n = 59),
respectively. Depressed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients
reported significantly lower health-related quality of life scores as
compared to non-depressed patients. Participants with depression had
significantly higher levels of anxiety, less social support, higher social
stress and more subjective impairment in quality of life. Conclusion: Given the association with reduced social support and increased perceived
stress, the role of psychosocial interventions must be explored in improving
outcomes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients in Pakistan.

Prevalence and Determinants of Mental Health among COPD Patients in a Population-Based Sample in Spain. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10132786. [PMID: 34202915 PMCID: PMC8268632 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10132786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: To assess the prevalence of mental disorders (depression and anxiety), psychological distress, and psychiatric medications consumption among persons suffering from COPD; to compare this prevalence with non-COPD controls and to identify which variables are associated with worse mental health. (2) Methods: This is an epidemiological case-control study. The data were obtained from the Spanish National Health Survey 2017. Subjects were classified as COPD if they reported suffering from COPD and the diagnosis of this condition had been confirmed by a physician. For each case, we selected a non-COPD control matched by sex, age, and province of residence. Conditional logistic regression was used for multivariable analysis. (3) Results: The prevalence of mental disorders (33.9% vs. 17.1%; p < 0.001), psychological distress (35.4% vs. 18.2%; p < 0.001), and psychiatric medications consumption (34.1% vs. 21.9%; p < 0.001) was higher among COPD cases compared with non-COPD controls. After controlling for possible confounding variables, such as comorbid conditions and lifestyles, using multivariable regression, the probability of reporting mental disorders (OR 1.41; 95% CI 1.10–1.82).), psychological distress (OR 1.48; 95% CI 1.12–1.91), and psychiatric medications consumption (OR 1.38 95% CI 1.11–1.71) remained associated with COPD. Among COPD cases, being a woman, poor self-perceived health, more use of health services, and active smoking increased the probability of suffering from mental disorders, psychological distress, and psychiatric medication use. Stroke and chronic pain were the comorbidities more strongly associated with these mental health variables. (4) Conclusions: COPD patients have worse mental health and higher psychological distress and consume more psychiatric medications than non-COPD matched controls. Variables associated with poorer mental health included being a woman, poor self-perceived health, use of health services, and active smoking.

Abstract
Early-life stress can lead to two different behavioral responses: (1) increased susceptibility to psychiatric disorders or (2) resilience. Here, we created a chronic unpredictable early-life stress (CUELS) protocol to assess the effects of early experiences in adult zebrafish. Animals were exposed to mild stressors twice a day and the duration was varied between groups (0, 1, 3, 7 and 14 days of stress). The stressor consisted of light/dark cycle changes; social isolation; overcrowding; water changes; water cooling; mechanical stirring; water heating; and immersion in shallow water. Behavior was assessed at young stages (21 days post-fertilization - open field analysis) and adulthood (4-months-old - novel tank diving test, light/dark task, shoaling, free movement pattern Y-maze and Pavlovian fear conditioning). Cortisol levels were assessed to evaluate the impact of CUELS in the HPI axis. Zebrafish exposed to 7 days of CUELS showed a decreased anxiety-like phenotype in two behavioral tasks, presenting increased time spent in top and decreased time spent in the dark area. Animals exposed to 14 days of CUELS showed an opposite anxious phenotype compared to 3 and 7 days of CUELS. No significant changes were observed in memory and cognition, social behavior and cortisol levels. In general, 7 days of CUELS protocol decreased anxiety in young and adult zebrafish, and could be used to understand the mechanisms underlying early-life experiences-derived alterations in neural circuits of anxiety.

Abstract
Background Although depression is a common comorbidity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the role of sex remains unexplored. We evaluated sex differences of risk factors of depressive symptoms in adults with COPD. Methods This was a population-based cross-sectional study using data from the 2014 and 2016 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Spirometry was used to identify patients with COPD, defined as a FEV1/FVC ratio < 0.7. Presence of depressive symptoms was defined as a total score ≥ 5 on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Results 17.8% of participants expressed depressive symptoms. Relative regression analysis revealed that female sex (RR 2.38; 95% CI 1.55–3.66; p < 0.001), living alone (RR 1.46; 95% CI 1.08–1.97; p = 0.013), current smoker (RR 1.70; 95% CI 1.15–2.52; p = 0.008), underweight (RR 1.58 95% CI 1.00–2.49; p = 0.049), and GOLD Stage III/IV (RR 1.92; 95% CI 1.19–3.09; p = 0.007) were the risk factors for depressive symptoms. Low income, living alone, multiple chronic disorders, and low BMI were risk factors of depressive symptoms in male, whereas low educational attainment, urban living, and current smoking were risk factors in female. Conclusions Female sex is a main risk factor of depressive symptoms in adults with COPD. As risk factors of depressive symptoms in COPD patients vary according to their sex, different approaches are needed to manage depression in males and females with COPD.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the perception of physicians on gender-specific differences in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) using a qualitative and anonymous questionnaire-based survey. Methods The survey was conducted amongst respiratory physicians attending a standalone educational conference (29–30 September 2017) using the SpotMe® App. The 20-item standardized closed questionnaire had pre-coded responses to questions on physician’s profile, and perception of COPD diagnosis and existing comorbidities between genders. All the responses were recorded anonymously. Results Of 368 physicians who downloaded the SpotMe® App and had access to the survey, 132 (35.9%) completed the survey. Respondents were predominantly hospital-based (57.3%), aged 30–49 years (54.2%), male (56.5%), and from large cities (59.5%). 68.7% of physicians perceived the prevalence of COPD to be higher in men; over 50% of physicians perceived that women were more prone to the effects of smoking. More than 60% of physicians agreed that women experience more severe symptoms (anxiety and depression) and have reduced quality of life than men. Over 50% of physicians agreed that misdiagnosis/underdiagnosis of COPD in women was an important factor for gender-differences. Conclusion Results from this survey indicate that the understanding of COPD burden in women varies among healthcare professionals.

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
Pulmonary rehabilitation, whether performed at home or in a specialised centre, is effective in the management of COPD. As gender-related differences in COPD were previously reported, we aimed to evaluate the impact of gender on pulmonary rehabilitation outcomes in the short, medium and long term. In this retrospective observational study of 170 women and 310 men with COPD, we compared the outcomes of an 8-week home-based pulmonary rehabilitation programme including an individualised plan of retraining exercises, physical activities, therapeutic education, and psychosocial and self-management support. Exercise tolerance, anxiety, depression, and quality of life (QOL) were assessed using the 6-min stepper test (6MST), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Visual Simplified Respiratory Questionnaire (VSRQ), respectively. Assessments were carried out before, immediately after the pulmonary rehabilitation programme (T2) and at 8 (T8) and 14 months (T14). At baseline, women were younger (mean 62.1 versus 65.3 years), more often nonsmokers (24.7% versus 7.7%) and had a higher body mass index (28 versus 26.4 kg·m−2). They more often lived alone (50.6% versus 24.5%) and experienced social deprivation (66.7% versus 56.4%). They had significantly lower exercise tolerance (−34 strokes, 6MST) and higher anxiety and depression (+3.2 HADS total score), but there were no between gender differences in QOL (VSRQ). Both groups showed similar improvements in all outcome measures at T2, T8 and T14 with a tendency for men to lose QOL profits over time. Despite some differences in baseline characteristics, women and men with COPD had similar short-, medium- and long-term benefits of a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation programme.

Abstract
Metabolic acidosis, which can be affected by dietary acid-base load, seems to be associated with psychological disorders through different pathways. Given limited evidence on dietary acid-base load, we aimed to examine the association of dietary acid-base load with psychological disorders in Iranian women. This cross-sectional study was performed on 447 female subjects (20-50 years old). Dietary intake was assessed using a valid food frequency questionnaire for Iran. Dietary acid-base load was calculated through different indices including potential renal acid load (PRAL), net endogenous acid production (NEAP), and dietary acid load (DAL). To assess psychological disorders, an Iranian validated version of depression, anxiety, and stress scale (DASS-21) was used. The mean value of PRAL, NEAP, and DAL were -8.87mEq/da, 37.94mEq/day, and 30.77mEq/day, respectively. Considering a wide range of confounding variables, compared with the first tertile, a significant positive association was observed between dietary acid-base load and depression (ORPRAL: 3.63; 95 %CI:1.97, 6.71; Ptrend = 0.0001) (ORNEAP:3.42; 95 %CI: 1.87, 6.23; Ptrend = 0.0001) (ORDAL: 3.02; 95 %CI: 1.64, 5.58; Ptrend = 0.0001). Women in the high dietary acid-base load category had higher anxiety (ORPRAL: 3.31; 95 %CI: 1.81, 6.06; Ptrend = 0.0001) (ORNEAP:3.47; 95 %CI: 1.90, 6.33; Ptrend = 0.0001) (ORDAL: 3.25; 95 %CI: 1.76, 5.98; Ptrend = 0.0001). Moreover, there was a strong positive relationship between dietary acid-base load and psychologicaldistress (ORPRAL: 3.79; 95 %CI: 2.09, 6.90; Ptrend = 0.0001) (ORNEAP: 3.67; 95 %CI: 2.04, 6.58; Ptrend = 0.0001) (ORDAL: 3.00; 95 %CI: 1.66, 5.43; Ptrend = 0.0001). Women with higher dietary acid-base load score had greater odds for depression, anxiety, and psychological distress compared to lower ones.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE B-vitamins affect brain function through multiple pathways. Given limited evidence on the relationship between dietary intake of these vitamins and psychological disorders, we examined dietary intake of vitamin B6-9-12 in relation to psychological disorders among Iranian women. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. Dietary intake was assessed using a valid and reliable FFQ. To assess psychological disorders, we used a version of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 validated in Iran. SETTING Ten public health centres in southern Tehran, Iran. PARTICIPANTS A total of 447 female participants aged 20-50 years. RESULTS The median values of vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), B9 (folate) and B12 (cobalamin) were 1·30 mg/d, 313·89 µg/d and 3·99 µg/d, respectively. After adjustment for potential confounders, dietary vitamin B6 intake was associated with lower odds of depression (OR: 0·54; 95 % CI: 0·31, 0·95; Ptrend: 0·03). However, there was a positive association between dietary vitamin B12 intake with the odds of depression (OR: 2·05; 95 % CI: 1·17, 3·60; Ptrend: 0·01) and psychological distress (OR: 2·00; 95 % CI: 1·17, 3·41; Ptrend: 0·01). No association was found between vitamin B9 with any psychological disorders. CONCLUSIONS Women with higher dietary intakes of vitamin B6 had lower likelihood of depression. However, women with higher dietary intake of vitamin B12 had higher odds of depression and psychological distress. Future prospective studies in different populations are needed to clarify whether B-vitamin deficiency is a cause or consequence of psychological disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The incidence and associated healthcare costs of malignant pleural effusion (MPE) are expected to rise, but there is limited evidence about which factors affect patients' prognosis. So, the aim of this study was to determine whether psychological distress at hospital admission is associated with symptom severity and health status in patients with MPE. METHODS A longitudinal observational prospective cohort study was carried out in the Pulmonology Service of the Granada University Hospital Complex in Granada, Spain. Patients diagnosed with MPE were included and evaluated at hospital admission, at discharge and at one month after discharge. Outcome measures included symptom severity (i.e. dyspnoea, pain and cough) and health status (functionality and self-perceived health status). RESULTS Significant differences were found in symptoms and the health status, with worse results in the group with psychological distress at discharge. One month after discharge, MPE patients with psychological distress exhibited greater symptoms, including more cough and dyspnoea (p < .05). Moreover, these patients showed worse functionality (p < .05) and self-perceived health status (p < .05). CONCLUSION Psychological distress is an important factor to take into account in patients with MPE. The presence of psychological distress appears to increase the symptoms and is associated with worse health status after hospitalisation.

Abstract
AbstractThe present study was carried out to determine whether the dietary insulin index (DII) and dietary insulin load (DIL) are related to psychological disorders in a cross-sectional study among adults. A total of 3172 Iranian adults (age range of 18–55 years) were included. Data on dietary intakes were collected using a validated dish-based 106-item semi-quantitative FFQ. DII and DIL were calculated using food insulin index values published earlier. To assess depression and anxiety, an Iranian validated version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was used. Furthermore, psychological distress was examined using the General Health Questionnaire. Among women, a significant positive association was seen; such that women in the highest quartile of DIL had higher odds of depression than those in the lowest quartile (OR 1·84; 95 % CI 1·14, 2·96). In terms of DII, in the fully adjusted model, women in the top quartile of DII were more likely to be depressed compared with those in the bottom quartile (OR 1·65; 95 % CI 1·05, 2·58). In conclusion, we found a significant positive association between DIL and DII and odds of depression among women, but not in men. However, such findings were not seen for anxiety and psychological distress.

Abstract
Background The presence of comorbid conditions could impact performance in pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) programmes. We aimed to compare the comorbidity prevalence among those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) and evaluate the impact on PR response. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study, recording comorbidities for all patients with COPD or ILD referred to PR. Participants were classified as responders to PR if they met the minimal important difference for exercise capacity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The prevalence of comorbidities and impact on PR outcomes were compared by lung disease and by sex using a univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression. Results The mean number of comorbidities was similar among those with COPD (3.3±2.1, n=242) and ILD (3.2±1.9, n=66) (p>0.05). Females had a higher number of comorbidities than males in both COPD (p=0.001) and ILD (p=0.017) populations. Circulatory (64%) and endocrine/metabolic (45%) conditions were most common in COPD. In ILD, digestive (55%) and circulatory (53%) comorbidities were most prevalent. In people with ILD, those over 65 years, with musculoskeletal/connective tissue disease or circulatory disease were less likely to obtain meaningful improvements in exercise capacity. There was no impact of comorbidities on exercise capacity in COPD or on HRQoL in ILD. Conclusions The majority of patients with COPD or ILD enrolled in PR programmes have multiple comorbidities that may affect improvements in exercise capacity. PR programmes may be less effective for older adults with ILD and comorbid circulatory or musculoskeletal disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Anxiety and depression are common comorbidities in people diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Despite concomitant psychological symptomatology being reported in 22-48% of people with COPD, most literature focuses on identifying the risk factors for anxiety or depression separately. Therefore, our objective was to determine whether there is an association between people living with concomitant anxiety and depression and sociodemographic risk factors in people and living with COPD. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study of 242 people living with COPD. Symptomatology of anxiety and depression were assessed using the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II). Univariate and multivariable logistic regression models were used to test the association between symptomatology and demographic predictor variables. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were derived. RESULTS Of the 242 people included, 48.8% (n = 118) had no symptoms of anxiety or depression and 33.5%% (n = 81) had symptomatology for both. Multivariable modelling suggested younger age, having a carer, having a previous psychological medical history, having a higher number of comorbidities and poorer quality of life were associated with concomitant anxiety and depression compared to those without symptomatology. CONCLUSION Further work should be done to build upon our results which adds to the limited literature surrounding risk factors for concomitant psychological symptomatology to facilitate future discussion surrounding reducing these detrimental comorbidities in people with COPD.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has a negative impact on people's quality of life affecting daily activities and mental and emotional well-being. Healthcare services need to understand what patients want and need. We used a co-production methodology, Working Together for Change, not previously used in a COPD setting to determine what matters to people with COPD. Forty patients took part in one-to-one discussions to identify what was working well, not working well and what was important for the future in terms of their COPD care. The responses were analysed in two one-day co-production workshops involving COPD patients, carers and professionals. The six highest priority themes around what's not working well were: 'I don't think the right hand knows what the left hand is doing', 'I can't get appointments when I want them', 'I'm not treated as a person', 'I can't do what I want to do', 'I'm anxious and depressed' and 'I can't eat well.' Professionals gained powerful insights into the difficulties of COPD through their interactions with patients in the workshops. What mattered to patients encompassed meaning, purpose and relationships beyond immediate medical needs and underlines the need for patient-centred holistic approaches to COPD care and support.

Abstract
The increasingly female face of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) prevalence among women has equalled that of men since 2008, due in part to increased tobacco use among women worldwide and exposure to biomass fuels. This finding is supported by a number of characteristics. There is evidence of susceptibility to smoking and other airborne contaminants, along with epidemiological and phenotypic manifestations. COPD has thus become the leading cause of death in women in the USA. The clinical presentation is characterised by increasingly pronounced dyspnoea with a marked tendency towards anxiety and depression, undernutrition, nonsmall cell lung cancer (especially adenocarcinoma) and osteoporosis. Quality of life is also more significantly impacted. The theories advanced to explain these differences involve the role played by oestrogens, impaired gas exchange in the lungs and smoking habits. While these differences require appropriate therapeutic responses (smoking cessation, pulmonary rehabilitation, long-term oxygen therapy), barriers to the treatment of women with COPD include greater under-diagnosis than in men, fewer spirometry tests and medical consultations. Faced with this serious public health problem, we need to update and adapt our knowledge to the epidemiological changes. The face of COPD is increasingly female. We need more evidence and a change in how the disease is managed. http://ow.ly/zueL30mWqlS

Abstract
Findings from clinical trials on the effect of Mg supplementation on depression and anxiety are not generalisable to the community owing to high-dose intervention in short-term periods. Limited observational data are available linking dietary intake of Mg and psychiatric disorders. We aimed to investigate the association between dietary intake of Mg and psychiatric disorders in a large cross-sectional study on Iranian adults. A total of 3172 Iranian adults (with an age range of 18-55 years) were included in this study. Data on dietary intakes were collected using a validated dish-based 106-item semi-quantitative FFQ. To assess depression and anxiety, an Iranian validated version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was used. Furthermore, psychological distress was examined using the General Health Questionnaire. The mean age of men and women was 38·4 (sd 8·2) and 35·1 (sd 7·4) years, respectively. In unadjusted analyses, we found that higher dietary Mg intake was associated with lower odds of anxiety among women (OR 0·61; 95 % CI 0·41, 0·90), such that after taking potential confounders into account women in the highest quintile of Mg intake had a 39 % lower odds of anxiety compared with those in the lowest quintile (OR 0·61; 95 % CI 0·40, 0·93). Moreover, deficient Mg intake was positively associated with anxiety among all women (OR 1·80; 95 % CI 1·19, 2·72) and also normal-weight women (OR 1·73; 95 % CI 1·01, 2·95). In addition, a significant inverse association was found between dietary Mg intake and depression among normal-weight men (OR 0·45; 95 % CI 0·20, 0·99) and overweight women (OR 0·45; 95 % CI 0·24, 0·85). In conclusion, dietary intake of Mg was inversely associated with depression and anxiety. However, such findings were not seen for psychological distress.

Abstract
PURPOSE Individuals with all forms of pulmonary disease are referred for pulmonary rehabilitation. This study examines pulmonary rehabilitation outcomes between individuals with chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) and non-COPD disease and the impact of gender. METHODS This is a retrospective study at a tertiary center. The primary endpoint was the difference in 6-min walk test distance. Secondary measurements included treadmill and NuStep minutes; biceps curls and front arm raises load; quality of life measured by the St George's Respiratory Questionnaire; and University of California San Diego-Shortness of Breath Questionnaire (UCSD-SOBQ) scores. RESULTS Eighty patients were included: 38 men (23 COPD, 15 non-COPD) and 42 women (31 COPD, 11 non-COPD). There was a statistically significant improvement in 6-min walk test distances pre- to post-pulmonary rehabilitation for all participants, P = .0003. Although both the COPD and non-COPD groups demonstrated overall improvement (P < .0004 and P = .02, respectively), subgroup analysis showed no statistically significant change in the non-COPD group when divided by gender. There was a significant statistical improvement in lower and upper extremity strength in all participants. Only women with COPD showed a statistically significant improvement with respect to overall quality of life as measured by St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (P = .01). Women showed significant improvement in their depression score, as well as a trend toward improvement in the University of California San Diego-Shortness of Breath Questionnaire, while only men with COPD showed any improvement in their sleep quality measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. CONCLUSIONS Pulmonary rehabilitation results in different but improved outcomes regardless of gender or disease state.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a serious disease frequently accompanied by anxiety and depression. Few studies have focused on anxiety and depression for mild COPD patients in China. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors for anxiety and depression among patients with mild COPD in urban communities. METHODS A cross-sectional survey of 275 mild COPD patients was conducted in 6 communities randomly sampled from Pudong New Area of Shanghai, China, in 2016. Data on socioeconomic factors and health conditions were acquired through a face-to-face interview as well as a physical examination. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD) and EQ-5D visual analogue (EQ-5Dvas) were applied to evaluate their mental health and quality of life, respectively. Logistic regression model was used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and their 95% confidential intervals (CI) for risk factors associated with anxiety or depression. RESULTS Among 275 subjects, 8.1% had anxiety and 13.4% had depression. Logistic regression analysis indicated that female patients were more likely to suffer from anxiety than male patients (aOR = 6.41, 95% CI:1.73-23.80). Poor health status (EQ-5Dvas score < 70) was significantly associated with increased risks of anxiety (aOR = 5.99, 95% CI: 2.13-16.82) and depression (aOR = 2.67, 95% CI: 1.29-5.52). CONCLUSIONS There were increased risks of anxiety and depression in mild COPD patients living in urban communities. Female sex and poor health status were significantly correlated to anxiety or depression. More interventions should be developed to reduce the risks of anxiety and depression at the early stage of COPD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and their caregivers are at high risk for developing depression. Depression can adversely affect the quality of life of patients and caregivers; however, studies in COPD have largely examined predictors of patient and caregiver depression in isolation. This dyadic study examined individual-level predictors of patient and caregiver depression in COPD (i.e. actor effects) as well as how dyad members effect each other's depression (i.e. partner effects). METHODS Survey data were collected from 89 patient-caregiver dyads that were enrolled in a multi-site cohort study. RESULTS Participants were predominantly women (61% of patients and 76% of caregivers) and racial/ethnic minorities (65% of patients and 63% of caregivers). Based on PHQ9 cutoffs, 30% of patients and 20% of caregivers had mild depression; 30% of patients and 8% of caregivers had moderate to severe depression. Multilevel models with the dyad as the unit of analysis showed that less frequent patient self-management, higher levels of caregiver burden, and being in poorer health were associated with higher levels of depression for both dyad members. Higher levels of depression in a partner were also associated with higher levels of depression for women, regardless of whether women were patients or caregivers. CONCLUSION Findings suggest that similar factors predict patient and caregiver depression in COPD and that women are at increased risk for developing depression when their partners are depressed. Dyadic psychosocial interventions that target patients and their caregivers may thus be beneficial in terms of addressing depression in this this vulnerable population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical and psychological symptoms are the hallmark of patients' subjective perception of their illness. The purpose of this analysis was to determine if patients with COPD have distinctive symptom profiles and to examine the association of symptom profiles with systemic biomarkers of inflammation. METHODS We conducted latent class analyses of three physical (dyspnea, fatigue, and pain) and two psychological symptoms (depression and anxiety) in 302 patients with moderate to severe COPD using baseline data from a longitudinal observational study of depression in COPD. Systemic inflammatory markers included IL1, IL8, IL10, IL12, IL13, INF, GM-CSF, TNF-α (levels >75thcentile was considered high); and CRP (levels >3 mg/L was considered high). Multinominal logistic regression models were used to examine the association between symptom classes and inflammation while adjusting for key socio-demographic and disease characteristics. RESULTS We found that a 4-class model best fit the data: 1) low physical and psychological symptoms (26%, Low-Phys/Low-Psych), 2) low physical but moderate psychological symptoms (18%, Low-Phys/Mod Psych), 3) high physical but moderate psychological symptoms (25%, High-Phys/Mod Psych), and 4) high physical and psychological symptoms (30%, High-Phys/High Psych). Unadjusted analyses showed associations between symptom class with high levels of IL7, IL-8 (p ≤ .10) and CRP (p < .01). In the adjusted model, those with a high CRP level were less likely to be in the High-Phys/Mod-Psych class compared to the Low-Phys/Low-Psych (OR: 0.41, 95%CI 0.19, 0.90) and Low-Phys/Mod-Psych classes (OR: 0.35, 95%CI 0.16, 0.78); elevated CRP was associated with in increased odds of being in the High-Phys/High-Psych compared to the High-Phys/Mod-Psych class (OR: 2.22, 95%CI 1.08, 4.58). Younger age, having at least a college education, oxygen use and depression history were more prominent predictors of membership in the higher symptom classes. CONCLUSIONS Patients with COPD can be classified into four distinct symptom classes based on five commonly co-occurring physical and psychological symptoms. Systemic biomarkers of inflammation were not associated with symptom class. Additional work to test the reliability of these symptom classes, their biological drivers and their validity for prognostication and tailoring therapy in larger and more diverse samples is needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Few studies have investigated the relationship between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and anxiety disorder outcomes. We sought to investigate the association in a large national sample. METHODS Cases were identified from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database who were aged 15 years and above, with a new primary diagnosis of COPD (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes: 491, 492, 494 and 496) between 2000 and 2007. The 29,951 cases identified were compared to 29,951 controls matched on sex, age, urban/rural residence and socioeconomic status based on insurance premium. Both groups were followed until the end of 2008 for instances of anxiety disorders. Competing risk-adjusted Cox regression analyses were applied, adjusting for matching variables, Charlson comorbidity index, hospital admission days and daily dose of prednisone. RESULTS Of the 59,902 subjects, 3951 were found to have anxiety disorders during a mean (SD) follow-up period of 5.5 (2.5) years. COPD, female, urban residence, lower dose of prednisone use, depressive disorders and higher outpatient visits were independent predictors of incident anxiety disorder. CONCLUSIONS COPD was associated with increased risk of an anxiety disorder diagnosis, independent of a number of potential confounding factors.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) primarily affects men; however, its epidemiology has been changing because more women have become smokers. Recently, investigators found that although women and men were exposed to the same amount of smoke fume, women tended to have more severe disease and higher mortality rate. They also complain of more dyspnoea and may experience more severe exacerbations than men. This led to the question of whether sex has an impact on COPD course and whether women have a higher susceptibility to smoke fumes than men. That may be explained by multiple complex factors highlighting the relationship between sex, epidemiology, method of diagnostics and the clinical course of the disease. In this review, sex differences in epidemiology, clinical presentation, exacerbation, co-morbidities and treatment are covered.

Abstract
CONTEXT Psychological comorbidities are prevalent in coal miners with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and contribute to the severity of the disease reducing their health status. Yoga has been shown to alleviate depression and anxiety associated with other chronic diseases but in COPD not been fully investigated. AIM This study aimed to evaluate the role of yoga on health status, depression, and anxiety in coal miners with COPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a randomized trial with two study arms (yoga and control), which enrolled 81 coal miners, ranging from 36 to 60 years with stage II and III stable COPD. Both groups were either on conventional treatment or combination of conventional care with yoga program for 12 weeks. RESULTS Data were collected through standardized questionnaires; COPD Assessment Test, Beck Depression Inventory and State and Trait Anxiety Inventory at the beginning and the end of the intervention. The yoga group showed statistically significant (P < 0.001) improvements on all scales within the group, all significantly different (P < 0.001) from changes observed in the controls. No significant prepost changes were observed in the control group (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Yoga program led to greater improvement in physical and mental health status than did conventional care. Yoga seems to be a safe, feasible, and effective treatment for patients with COPD. There is a need to conduct more comprehensive, high-quality, evidence-based studies to shed light on the current understanding of the efficacy of yoga in these chronic conditions and identify unanswered questions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psychiatric disorders, especially anxiety and depression have been reported to have an increased prevalence in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, but there is a paucity of data from India. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Aim of our study is to study the frequency of psychiatric comorbidities in COPD patients and their correlation with severity of COPD, as per global initiative for obstructive lung disease guidelines. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted in outpatient department of a tertiary care hospital (King George's Medical University). A total of 74 COPD patients were included in this study and compared with 74 controls. The diagnosis and severity of COPD were assessed by spirometry. Psychiatric comorbidities were assessed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview questionnaire. RESULTS The frequency of psychiatric comorbidities was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in COPD patients (28.4%) as compared to controls (2.7%). As regards to severity, the frequency was significantly increased in severe and very severe COPD. The frequency of psychiatric comorbidities in COPD patients increased significantly with the increase in duration of symptoms being present in 67% of patients with duration of symptoms more than 10 years and only 23% of patients with duration of symptoms ≤5 years. CONCLUSION The frequency of psychiatric comorbidities is increased in COPD patients as compared to controls. We recommend that all patients with COPD should be screened for psychiatric comorbidity, if any.

Abstract
CONTEXT The maintenance of dignity is an important concept in palliative care, and the loss of dignity is a significant concern among patients with advanced cancer. OBJECTIVES The goals of this study were to examine whether loss of dignity is also a concern for patients receiving interdisciplinary rehabilitation for Stage III or IV chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We examined the prevalence and correlates of loss of dignity and determined whether it improves with treatment. METHODS Inpatients underwent a structured interview inquiry around their sense of dignity and completed measures of pulmonary, physical, and psychological function at admission (n = 195) and discharge (n = 162). RESULTS Loss of dignity was identified as a prominent ongoing concern for 13% of patients. It was correlated with measures of depression and anxiety sensitivity, but not with pulmonary capacity or functional performance. A robust improvement in loss of dignity was demonstrated, with 88% of those who reported a significant problem at admission no longer reporting one at discharge. CONCLUSION The prevalence of a problematic loss of dignity among patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is at least as high as among those receiving palliative cancer care. Loss of dignity may represent a concern among people with medical illnesses more broadly, and not just in the context of "death with dignity" at the end of life. Furthermore, interdisciplinary care may help to restore a sense of dignity to those individuals who are able to participate in rehabilitation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The association between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and anxiety and depression is not yet completely characterized, and differences between countries may exist. We used a predictive model to assess this association in a Spanish population. PATIENTS AND METHOD Prospective transversal descriptive study of 204 patients with stable COPD. Concomitant anxiety or depression were diagnosed by psychiatric assessment, using the diagnostic criteria of the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10). Sociodemographic, clinical and lung function parameters were analyzed. RESULTS In total, 36% of stable COPD patients had psychiatric comorbidities, but 76% were unaware of their diagnosis. Nineteen percent had a pure anxiety disorder, 9.8% had isolated depression, and 7.3% had a mixed anxiety-depression disorder. Predictive variables in the multivariate analysis were younger age, higher educational level, lack of home support, higher BODE index, and greater number of exacerbations. The ROC curve of the model had an AUC of 0.765 (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS In COPD, concomitant psychiatric disorders are significantly associated with sociodemographic factors. Anxiety disorders are more common than depression. Patients with more severe COPD, according to BODE, younger patients and those with a higher educational level have a greater risk of being diagnosed with anxiety or depression in a structured psychiatric interview. In our population, most patients with psychiatric comorbidities remain unidentified.

Abstract
Background Several studies have reported on the co-occurrence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and psychiatric conditions, with the most robust evidence base demonstrating an impact of comorbid anxiety and depression on COPD-related outcomes. In recent years, research has sought to determine if there is a co-occurrence between COPD and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as well as for associations between PTSD and COPD-related outcomes. To date, there have been no published reviews summarizing this emerging literature. Objectives The primary objective of this review was to determine if there is adequate evidence to support a co-occurrence between PTSD and COPD. Secondary objectives were to: 1) determine if there are important clinical considerations regarding the impact of PTSD on COPD management, and 2) identify targeted areas for further research. Methods A structured review was performed using a systematic search strategy limited to studies in English, addressing adults, and to articles that examined: 1) the co-occurrence of COPD and PTSD and 2) the impact of PTSD on COPD-related outcomes. To be included, articles must have addressed some type of nonreversible obstructive lung pathology. Results A total of 598 articles were identified for initial review. Upon applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, n=19 articles or abstracts addressed our stated objectives. Overall, there is inconclusive evidence to support the co-occurrence between PTSD and COPD. Studies finding a significant co-occurrence generally had inferior methods of identifying COPD; in contrast, studies that utilized more robust COPD measures (such as a physician exam) generally failed to find a relationship. Among studies that examined the impact of PTSD on COPD-related outcomes, there was more consistent evidence that PTSD affects the perception of respiratory symptom burden and management. In addition, methods for measuring an important confounder (smoking) were generally lacking. Conclusion There is inconclusive evidence to support the co-occurrence of COPD and PTSD. There was stronger evidence implicating PTSD as an important comorbidity impacting COPD management. Further research is needed to: 1) determine whether or not COPD and PTSD are likely to be comorbid, and 2) further elucidate the mechanisms connecting PTSD and COPD-related outcomes.

Abstract
The objectives of our study were to (i) compare, in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, acute responses to continuous training at high intensity (CTHI), continuous training at ventilatory threshold (CTVT) and interval training (IT); (ii) examine associations between acute responses and 12-week adherence; and (iii) investigate whether the relationship between acute responses and adherence is mediated/moderated by affect/vigour. Thirty-five COPD patients (forced expiratory volume in 1 second = 60.2 ± 15.8% predicted), underwent baseline assessments, were randomly assigned to CTHI, CTVT or IT, were monitored throughout about before training, and underwent 12 weeks of exercise training during which adherence was tracked. Compared with CTHI, CTVT was associated with lower respiratory exchange ratio, heart rate and respiratory rate (RR), while IT induced higher [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]maximal voluntary ventilation, RR and lower pulse oxygen saturation. From pre- to post-exercise, positive affect increased ( F = 9.74, p < 0.001) and negative affect decreased ( F = 6.43, p = 0.005) across groups. CTVT reported greater end-exercise vigour compared to CTHI ( p = 0.01) and IT ( p = 0.02). IT exhibited lowest post-exercise vigour ( p = 0.04 versus CTHI, p = 0.02 versus CTVT) and adherence rate ( F = 6.69, p = 0.004). Mean [Formula: see text] ( r = −0.466, p = 0.007) and end-exercise vigour ( r = 0.420, p = 0.017) were most strongly correlated with adherence. End-exercise vigour moderated the relationship between [Formula: see text] and adherence ( β = 2.74, t(32) = 2.32, p = 0.03). In summary, CTHI, CTVT and IT improved affective valence from rest to post-exercise and induced a significant 12-week exercise training effect. However, they elicited different acute physiological responses, which in turn were associated with differences in 12-week adherence to the target training intensity. This association was moderated by acute end-exercise vigour.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Age and smoking are common risk factors for COPD and other illnesses, often leading COPD patients to demonstrate multiple coexisting comorbidities. COPD exacerbations and comorbidities contribute to the overall severity in individual patients. Clinical trials investigating the treatment of COPD routinely exclude patients with multiple comorbidities or advanced age. Clinical practice guidelines for a specific disease do not usually address comorbidities in their recommendations. However, the management and the medical intervention in COPD patients with comorbidities need a holistic approach that is not clearly established worldwide. This holistic approach should include the specific burden of each comorbidity in the COPD severity classification scale. Further, the pharmacological and nonpharmacological management should also include optimal interventions and risk factor modifications simultaneously for all diseases. All health care specialists in COPD management need to work together with professionals specialized in the management of the other major chronic diseases in order to provide a multidisciplinary approach to COPD patients with multiple diseases. In this review, we focus on the major comorbidities that affect COPD patients. We present an overview of the problems faced, the reasons and risk factors for the most commonly encountered comorbidities, and the burden on health care costs. We also provide a rationale for approaching the therapeutic options of the COPD patient afflicted by comorbidity.

Abstract
Dyspnea and fear of suffocation are burdensome to patients with respiratory disease. Inspiratory resistive loads offer an experimental respiratory stimulus to quantify the discriminative domain of respiratory perception. Resistive (R) load magnitude estimation (ME) and subjective ratings were measured over sustained multiple breaths in healthy subjects. There was no significant group difference between the ME for Breath 1 and 20 for small R loads, but a significant gender difference for large R loads. Subjective responses of fear, fear of suffocation, displeasure, chest pressure, faintness, dizziness, fear of losing control, trembling, and tingling were significantly greater for females. These results demonstrate that ME of large resistive sustained loads elicits nonsignificant increases in ME in females, but a significant decrease in ME for males. The maintenance of ME in females co-occurs with increased aversive processing relative to males.

Abstract
More than one third of individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) experience comorbid symptoms of depression and anxiety. This review aims to provide an overview of the burden of depression and anxiety in those with COPD and to outline the contemporary advances and challenges in the management of depression and anxiety in COPD. Symptoms of depression and anxiety in COPD lead to worse health outcomes, including impaired health-related quality of life and increased mortality risk. Depression and anxiety also increase health care utilization rates and costs. Although the quality of the data varies considerably, the cumulative evidence shows that complex interventions consisting of pulmonary rehabilitation interventions with or without psychological components improve symptoms of depression and anxiety in COPD. Cognitive behavioral therapy is also an effective intervention for managing depression in COPD, but treatment effects are small. Cognitive behavioral therapy could potentially lead to greater benefits in depression and anxiety in people with COPD if embedded in multidisciplinary collaborative care frameworks, but this hypothesis has not yet been empirically assessed. Mindfulness-based treatments are an alternative option for the management of depression and anxiety in people with long-term conditions, but their efficacy is unproven in COPD. Beyond pulmonary rehabilitation, the evidence about optimal approaches for managing depression and anxiety in COPD remains unclear and largely speculative. Future research to evaluate the effectiveness of novel and integrated care approaches for the management of depression and anxiety in COPD is warranted.

Suicidal ideation and suicide attempts in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES IV, V) from 2007-2012. NPJ Prim Care Respir Med 2014; 24:14094. [PMID: 25356541 PMCID: PMC4373505 DOI: 10.1038/npjpcrm.2014.94] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2014] [Revised: 08/26/2014] [Accepted: 09/15/2014] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: There is good evidence for an association between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and depression, but there are few studies on the relationship between COPD and suicidal ideation/suicidal attempts. Aims: To evaluate the mental health of patients with COPD in Korea and to compare it with that of the general population. Methods: We analysed data of 15,718 subjects (age ⩾40 years) who participated in the 2007–2012 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. COPD was defined according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) criteria for people aged ⩾40 years. We compared the mental health outcomes of 2,506 patients with COPD (2,355 GOLD stages I and II; 151 GOLD stages III and IV) with those of 13,212 controls. Results: Suicidal thoughts were reported by 16.0% of patients in stages I and II, by 23.8% of those in stages III and IV and by 15.7% of controls (P=0.023). Suicidal attempts were reported by 0.6% of patients in stages I and II, by 2.6% of those in stages III and IV and by 1.0% of controls (P=0.019). The crude odds ratio (OR) for suicidal ideation in those in stages III and IV was 1.68 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.16–2.46), and the OR for suicidal attempts in stages III and IV was 2.83 (95% CI, 1.03–7.75). In multivariate analysis, the OR for suicidal ideation in stages III and IV was 1.67 (95% CI, 1.12–2.49) and that for suicidal attempts was 2.94 (95% CI, 1.03–8.31). Conclusions: GOLD stages III and IV COPD were associated with a marked increase in suicidal behaviour.
