[PMID: 35318123 DOI: 10.1016/j.resp.2022.103887] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2021] [Revised: 02/19/2022] [Accepted: 03/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To clarify whether voluntary respiratory movement control strategy is sustainable during exercise and to determine its effect on aerobic exercise. MATERIAL AND METHODS Ten healthy men were enrolled in this study. We developed a device that can convert information on thoracoabdominal changes from an inductance plethysmograph and display the Konno-Mead diagram on the monitor in real time for each breath. On the first day, an incremental load test (ILT) was performed under two conditions. On the second day, a constant load test (CLT) was performed under two conditions using the load 1 min before the anaerobic threshold (AT). RESULTS In the ILT, a significant prolongation of AT time was observed with voluntary respiratory movement control. In the CLT, carbon dioxide excretion showed no significant interaction, but the gas exchange ratio did. CONCLUSION Voluntary respiratory movement control using a combination of chest band and visual feedback of thoracoabdominal movements may be a respiratory strategy to enhance aerobic exercise.

Analysis of Reasonable Respiratory Efficiency in Tennis Competition and Training Environment Based on Cloud Computing. JOURNAL OF HEALTHCARE ENGINEERING 2022; 2022:4289667. [PMID: 35480156 PMCID: PMC9038377 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4289667] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2022] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Competitive tennis is developing in the direction of quantification. How to use and give full play to all positive factors, in order to attack actively and give full play to the limits of body and psychology, breathing, as the basic metabolic function of human body, also plays a vital role in tennis. This paper studies that it plays an important role in the rationality and explosiveness of sports and the psychological and physiological regulation in competition. The characteristics of tennis events determine the importance of scientific and rational breathing. Reasonable breathing during exercise is conducive to maintaining the basic stability of the internal environment, improving the training effect, and giving full play to the functional ability of the human body, so as to create excellent sports results. First, reduce respiratory resistance. Second, there are two methods to improve alveolar ventilation efficiency and pulmonary ventilation: increasing respiratory rate and increasing respiratory depth. When the inhalation volume is constant, the alveolar gas freshness rate depends on the functional residual volume in the alveolar cavity at the end of expiratory or before inhalation. The less functional the residual air, the more fresh air inhaled, and the higher the oxygen partial pressure in alveolar gas. An effective way to reduce the functional residual volume in the alveolar cavity is to exhale as deeply as possible, so as to ensure that more oxygen enters the body. Reasonable breathing methods can not only accelerate the excitation of the body, increase movement strength, reduce fatigue, and promote recovery but also play a vital role in the rational allocation of physical fitness and the improvement of sports performance. The purpose of this study is to provide a theoretical basis for scientific tennis training by analyzing the characteristics of tennis events, the form of breathing in tennis and the efficiency of reasonable breathing in tennis.

J Bodyw Mov Ther 2021; 28:317-322. [PMID: 34776158 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbmt.2021.06.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2021] [Revised: 04/26/2021] [Accepted: 06/08/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Respiratory muscle oxygen consumption increases with the work of breathing. We hypothesized that reducing excessive respiratory muscle activity during exercise may improve exercise tolerance. METHOD We developed a device to provide real-time visual feedback of thoracoabdominal movement and used it to examine the influence of visual feedback of thoracoabdominal movement during diaphragmatic breathing on oxygen consumption in eight healthy men. While sitting on a wheelchair with the backrest reclined at 60°, oxygen consumption per body weight (VO2/BW), minute ventilation (VE), tidal volume (VT), and breathing frequency (fR) were measured, breath-by-breath, using an expired-gas analyzer. The breathing pattern was analyzed by inductance plethysmography, with transducer bands over the chest and abdomen recording thoracoabdominal movements. RESULTS There was no significant difference in RatioTH-ABD and the ventilatory parameters between diaphragmatic breathing and diaphragmatic breathing with visual feedback. The average VO2/BW during diaphragmatic breathing with visual feedback was 0.6 ml/kg lower than that during diaphragmatic breathing without visual feedback (p<0.05). CONCLUSION When visual feedback was used during diaphragmatic breathing, the RatioTH-ABD remained essentially unchanged, but VO2/BW decreased significantly. This suggests that visual feedback of thoracoabdominal movement during diaphragmatic breathing may reduce respiratory muscle oxygen consumption.

Abstract
AIMS To determine the theoretical framework that explains the mechanisms of the success of breathing exercise interventions in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. DESIGN A realist review. DATA SOURCES Seven bibliographic databases and the grey literature were searched from 2015-January 2020 to identify the studies of breathing exercises. REVIEW METHODS The evaluation criteria of realist review and the mixed method appraisal tool were both used to evaluate the included studies. We extracted and integrated the context-mechanism-outcome strings of each study to form the theoretical framework. RESULTS Six theoretical mechanisms that affected the success of the intervention were articulated: Wide acceptance of training methods, Integration of the intervention with life, Self-management of the participants, Confidence in controlling symptoms, Participation and support of practitioners, Motivation for intervention. Conversely, the other two mechanisms including the gap between implementation and training and the duration of the intervention, had negative impacts on the implementation of breathing exercises. CONCLUSION This review updates and expands the previous literature review on the impact of breathing exercises in people and provides researchers and clinical practitioners with theoretical mechanisms to ensure that the interventions achieve expected effects. IMPACT When formulating or selecting breathing exercise interventions, our theoretical framework will guide researchers and clinical practitioners to ensure that the intervention will have practical effects.

Abstract
Background Dyspnea, fatigue, and decline in sleep quality are symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Pulmonary rehabilitation programs have been shown to ameliorate dyspnea and fatigue. However, only a few studies have investigated the effects of pulmonary rehabilitation on the sleep quality of COPD patients. In this study, we analyzed the benefits of a pulmonary rehabilitation program to sleep quality and daytime somnolence in COPD patients. Methods This study was a study of 30 moderate-severe COPD patients. All patients were evaluated by a pulmonologist and underwent polysomnography before participating in the study. For this study, we selected only ex-smokers and patients with sleep apnea were referred to the sleep clinic. These participants were prospectively recruited and not selected based on program completion. Before the start of the program, sleep quality and daytime somnolence of the participants were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), respectively. Rehabilitation program consisted of muscular training sessions conducted at the gym 3 times per week for 12 weeks. After rehabilitation program, the patients were reassessed and their sleep quality and daytime somnolence were reevaluated using the PSQI and the ESS, respectively. Results Before rehabilitation, PSQI evaluation revealed that 73% of the participants had poor sleep quality, and ESS evaluation showed that 86.7% of the participants experienced daytime somnolence. After pulmonary rehabilitation, the PSQI specifically improved in terms of subjective sleep quality and sleep duration (< 0.001), habitual sleep efficiency (0.001), and sleep latency and sleep alterations (0.002) and there was also improvement in the ESS (< 0.001). Conclusion Pulmonary rehabilitation program of gradually increasing intensity has the potential to provide sleep-related benefits to patients with COPD who have poor sleep quality and daytime somnolence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide with a substantial and increasing social and economic burden. Liuzijue Qigong is a kind of traditional Chinese Qigong exercises that Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners prescribe to individuals with COPD to strengthen the internal organs' function. Liuzijue Qigong was recommended for use in COPD rehabilitation, and some clinical trials indicate that Liuzijue Qigong would produce better functional capacity and quality of life of individuals with COPD. The objective of this study is to conduct a systematic review of the existing studies to assess effectiveness and safety of Liuzijue Qigong for the prevention or treatment of COPD in patients. METHODS We will perform the comprehensive literature search in English and Chinese electronic database. The publication period will be from inception to the search date. In addition, the clinical trial registries, dissertations, informal publication, grey literature, reference lists of studies, systematic reviews, and conference abstracts will also be collected. Two reviewers will identify relevant studies, extract data information, and then assess the methodical quality by the Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool. Only randomized controlled trials comparing Liuzijue Qigong against other intervention or nonintervention will be included. Data will be synthesized by either fixed-effect or random-effect model regarding to a heterogeneity test. The routine lung function, arterial blood gas tensions, partial pressure of carbon dioxide, functional capacity, 30 seconds sit-to-stand test, respiratory function, maximal inspiration pressure, maximal expiratory pressure, airway resistance, and specific airway conductance will be assessed as primary outcomes. The secondary outcomes involved dyspnea, and fatigue levels, respiratory muscle strength, upper and lower limb muscle strength, handgrip strength test, and health-related quality of life and safety. Meta-analysis will be performed by using Cochrane's Review Manager software (version 5.3.5). RESULTS This systematic review and meta-analysis will provide a high-quality synthesis and evaluate the efficacy and safety based on current relevant literature evidence of Liuzijue Qigong intervention for COPD patient. CONCLUSION Our systematic review will provide evidence to determine whether Liuzijue Qigong is an effective and safe approach to prevention and treatment of COPD patients.

Abstract
[Purpose] The purpose of this study is to determine the effect that secondary postural
deformities and chronic postural abnormalities have on lung capacity, as well as correlate
the activity of the respiratory muscles. The results provide basic objective data about
the forward head posture and respiratory muscle activity that can be used in clinical
situations. [Subjects and Methods] The subjects used in this study were 24 patients aged
25 to 35 years old who visited a hospital in Jeollanam-do Province, Korea, between
September 2015 and January 2016. The patients were diagnosed with forward head posture
because the vertical line between the acromion process and the external acoustic meatus
was at least 5 cm. We measured the craniovertebral angle, pulmonary functions, and
respiratory muscle activity of the subjects for correlation analysis. [Results] A positive
correlation was found between the craniovertebral angle and the forced vital capacity
(r=0.63), while a negative correlation was found between the craniovertebral angle and the
sternocleidomastoid muscle (r=–0.77). The craniovertebral angle and the anterior scalene
muscle showed a negative correlation (r=–0.65). There were positive correlations between
the forced vital capacity and the sternocleidomastoid muscle (r=0.71), and between the
forced vital capacity and the anterior scalene muscle (r=0.59). [Conclusion] Severe
forward head posture increased the activities of the sternocleidomastoid muscles and the
anterior scalene muscles, and decreased the forced vital capacity. Thus, it is necessary
to develop more efficient interventions for managing forward head posture based on
pulmonary function and the activity of the respiratory synergist muscles.

Abstract
Background This study investigated the outcomes of preoperative HGT as an adjunct treatment for severe thoracic kyphoscoliosis, its role in radiographic correction, and pulmonary function improvement, together with nursing strategy and incidence of complications. Material/Methods Eleven patients with a mean age of 18.8 years were retrospectively reviewed. Inclusion criteria were: patients with severe kyphoscoliosis (coronal Cobb angle and kyphosis angle ≥80°); duration of HGT ≥8 weeks; patients undergoing HGT for at least 12 h per day; traction weight no less than 40% of body weight; and patients not receiving physical therapies. All patients underwent respiratory training. Results The major coronal curve scoliosis averaged 114.00±24.43° and was reduced to 80.55±17.98° after HGT. The major kyphosis was 103.91±18.95° and was reduced to 80.55±17.98°. Significantly improved percent-predicted values for FVC was found after HGT (p=0.014), and significantly increased forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1%) was also observed (p<0.001), with significantly improved percent-predicted values for PEF (p=0.003) after HGT. Conclusions Our data reveal that preoperative HGT can be performed safely, and can help achieve excellent curve correction in both the coronal and sagittal planes, together with improved respiratory function and no severe complications in patients with severe thoracic kyphoscoliosis.

Abstract
[Purpose] This study aimed to simultaneously investigate the activities of the
sternocleidomastoid muscle and scalenus anterior muscle, which are agonists of neck and
breathing accessory muscles, by implementing breathing exercises. [Subjects and Methods]
Thirteen subjects were selected for the experimental group, which performed feedback
respiratory exercises with McKenzie exercises, and 12 subjects were selected for the
control group, which performed McKenzie exercises alone. The intervention program was
performed for 30 minutes a session, once a day, four times a week, and for 2 weeks before
conducting the experiment. Before intervention, muscle activity was measured using surface
electromyogram, and the neck disability index was evaluated. [Results] There were
meaningful differences in activities of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and the scalenus
anterior muscle, craniovertebral angle, and neck disability index within both the
experimental group and control group after intervention. There also were meaningful
differences in sternocleidomastoid muscle and neck disability index changes between
groups. [Conclusion] Neck flexors as accessory respiratory muscle can affect inefficient
respiratory imbalance of forward head posture patients. Multimodal intervention method
should be studied continually and not be exposed to upper chest breathing patterns by
preventing such phenomenon.
