Abstract
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is closely associated with frailty, and prevention of acute exacerbations is important for disease management. Moreover, COPD patients with frailty experience a higher risk of acute exacerbations. However, the frailty instruments that can better predict acute exacerbations remain unclear. Purpose (1) To explore the factors influencing frailty and acute exacerbations in stable COPD patients, and (2) quantify the ability of multidimensional frailty instruments to predict acute exacerbations within 1 year. Patients and methods In this retrospective longitudinal study, stable COPD patients were recruited from the outpatient department of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from July 2022 to June 2023. COPD patients reviewed their frailty one year ago and their acute exacerbations within one year using face-to-face interviews with a self-developed frailty questionnaire. Frailty status was assessed using the Frailty Index (FI), frailty questionnaire (FRAIL), and Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS). One-way logistic regression was used to explore the factors influencing frailty and acute exacerbations. Multivariate logistic regression was used to establish a prediction model for acute exacerbations, and the accuracy of the three frailty instruments was compared by measuring the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results A total of 120 individuals were included. Frailty incidence estimates using FI, FRAIL, and CFS were 23.3%, 11.7%, and 15.8%, respectively. The three frailty instruments showed consistency in COPD assessments (P<0.05). After adjusting for covariates, frailty reflected by the FI and CFS score remained an independent risk factor for acute exacerbations. The CFS score was the best predictor of acute exacerbations (AUC, 0.764 (0.663-0.866); sensitivity, 57.9%; specificity, 80.0%). Moreover, the combination of CFS plus FRAIL scores was a better predictor of acute exacerbations (AUC, 0.792 (0.693-0.891); sensitivity, 86.3%; specificity, 60.0%). Conclusion Multidimensional frailty assessments could improve the identification of COPD patients at high risk of acute exacerbations and facilitate targeted interventions to reduce acute exacerbations in these patients.

Abstract
Objective Numerous articles and reviews addressing the intersection of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) with sarcopenia have been documented. However, a significant gap exists in the literature concerning scientometric analysis in this field. This study aimed to concentrate on recent research and elucidate emerging research areas through the examination of COPD with sarcopenia. Methods Articles in the field were systematically retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collections (WoSCC) spanning from 2003 to 2022. The analysis employed scientometric and keyword analyses through specialized software, including VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Origin. Results A comprehensive analysis of 758 articles and reviews in the field of COPD with sarcopenia revealed the United States as the leading contributor in terms of publications and overall influence. Maastricht University emerged as the most prolific institution, with Schols Annemie M. W. J. being identified as the most influential scholar in this field. The International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease emerged as the most prolific journal. Notably, COPD with sarcopenia exhibits frequent associations with other diseases, underscoring the complexity of the topic and emphasizing the necessity for comprehensive treatment. Mechanistic and diagnostic aspects, particularly computed tomography, are pivotal in this research field. Osteoporosis emerges as a prospective avenue for future research, encompassing both COPD and sarcopenia. Furthermore, nutrition and physical activity are integral components for managing COPD patients with sarcopenia. Conclusion This study delineates the distribution of fields, the knowledge structure, and the evolution of major research topics related to COPD with sarcopenia. The identification of keyword hotspots enhances the understanding of the occurrence, development, and future study trends associated with the topic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was conducted to compare and rank the effectiveness of various breathing exercises for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). DATA SOURCES We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases to determine the articles. STUDY SELECTION Publications investigating the effect of breathing exercises on exercise capacity (six-minute walk test [6MWT]), pulmonary function (the ratio of the first second forced expiratory volume of forced vital capacity [FEV1/FVC]), quality of life (St George's Respiratory Questionnaire [SGRQ]), inspiratory muscle pressure (maximum inspiratory pressure [PImax]), and dyspnea (Borg scale) were searched. DATA EXTRACTION Data extracted by 2 researchers were entered into predesigned tables for data extraction. The quality of the literature was assessed using the Cochrane Collaboration's tool. DATA SYNTHESIS A total of 43 RCTs involving 1977 participants were analyzed. To boost exercise capacity, the top 2 exercises were inspiratory muscle training (75%), Chinese traditional fitness exercises (13%); To improve pulmonary function, the top 2 exercises were Chinese traditional fitness exercises (32%), diaphragm breathing (30%); To raise patients' quality of life, the top 2 exercises were yoga (52%), diaphragm breathing (28%); To increase inspiratory muscle pressure, the top 2 exercises were pursed-lip breathing (47%), Chinese traditional fitness exercises (25%); To improve dyspnea, the top 2 exercises were yoga (44%), inspiratory muscle training (22%). CONCLUSIONS Various breathing exercises for COPD patients confer benefits that manifest in diverse ways. Pulmonary rehabilitation specialists could administer personalized breathing exercises tailored to each patient's condition to attain optimal therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extrapulmonary changes also occur in COPD. Resistance training can increase muscle strength and exercise capacity. OBJECTIVE The objective of this systematic review was to examine and compare the effectiveness of high and low-moderate load lower limb resistance training on muscle strength and exercise capacity in individuals with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS The PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, Web of Science, EBSCO, and CINAHL databases were searched to identify the articles published in English between January 1970 and July 2023. RESULTS Seven randomized controlled trials with a total of 188 individuals with COPD (RT: 100, CG: 88) met the inclusion criteria. A significant difference was revealed (favoring high load) in the change in knee extensor muscle strength and leg press strength in the high load resistance training group compared to the low-moderate load resistance training group (MD 21.90 Nm, 95 % CI 17.46-26.34 Nm, p < 0.00001; MD 5.80 kg, 95 % CI 3.87-7.73 kg, p < 0.00001). A significant difference was observed in the change in 6 MWT (six minute walk test) distance (favoring low-moderate load) and VO2peak (peak oxygen uptake) (favoring high load) in the high load resistance training group compared to the low-moderate load resistance training group (MD -16.90 m, 95 % CI -29.76- -4.04 m, p < 0.010; MD 3.10 ml/kg/min, 95 % CI 2.65-3.55 ml/kg/min, p < 0.00001). CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated that both high-load and low-moderate load resistance training increased muscle strength and might increase exercise capacity.

Abstract
The six-minute step test (6MST) has been shown to be effective in assessing exercise capacity in individuals with COPD regardless of severity and, despite its easy execution, accessibility and validity, information on the prognostic power of this test remains uncertain. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the 6MST can predict the occurrence of exacerbations in patients with COPD. This is a prospective cohort study with a 36-month follow-up in patients with COPD. All patients completed a clinical assessment, followed by pulmonary function testing and a 6MST. The 6MST was performed on a 20 cm high step; heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, BORG dyspnea and fatigue were collected. Sixty-four patients were included in the study, the majority being elderly men. Performance on the 6MST demonstrated lower performance compared to normative values proposed in the literature, indicating a reduced functional capacity. Kaplan Meier analysis revealed that ≤ 59 steps climbed during the 6MST was a strong predictor of COPD exacerbation over a 36-month follow-up. We have identified a minimal threshold number of steps (≤ 59) obtained through the 6MST may be able predict the risk of exacerbations in patients with COPD.

Abstract
Background Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is an often-overlooked genetic condition that makes individuals susceptible to early onset of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The established benefits of exercise-based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) for usual COPD patients are unclear for those with underlying AATD, especially given potentially differing muscle adaptations to exercise. This review seeks to compare PR outcomes between AATD and usual COPD patients and to consolidate current knowledge on exercise intervention outcomes for the AATD population. Methods A thorough search of 4 databases (Ovid, Medline, CINAHL, CENTRAL) was conducted based on 3 search concepts: (1) alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, (2) pulmonary rehabilitation OR exercise, and (3) muscle morphology. A dual review process and quality assessment were independently implemented throughout all stages of the review. Results Four studies highlighted modest exercise capacity and quality of life in AATD patients undergoing PR. However, one study reported unique muscle and mitochondrial responses compared to usual COPD patients. Additionally, a moderate exercise session did not alter pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in AATD patients, despite higher levels of tumor necrosis factor-α levels in muscle biopsies compared to usual COPD patients. Conclusions The current literature base insufficiently addresses the efficacy of PR on AATD, with indications that exercise adaptation may deviate from that of usual COPD patients. Further research is needed to optimize PR, particularly in identifying the most suitable exercise intensity, and delivery setting, and addressing specific educational needs for individuals with AATD.

Abstract
Rationale Skeletal muscle fat infiltration progresses with aging and is worsened among individuals with a history of cigarette smoking. Many negative impacts of smoking on muscles are likely reversible with smoking cessation. Objectives To determine if the progression of skeletal muscle fat infiltration with aging is altered by smoking cessation among lung cancer screening participants. Methods This was a secondary analysis based on the National Lung Screening Trial. Skeletal muscle attenuation in Hounsfield unit (HU) was derived from the baseline and follow-up low-dose CT scans using a previously validated artificial intelligence algorithm. Lower attenuation indicates greater fatty infiltration. Linear mixed-effects models were constructed to evaluate the associations between smoking status and the muscle attenuation trajectory. Measurements and Main Results Of 19,019 included participants (age: 61 years, 5 [SD]; 11,290 males), 8,971 (47.2%) were actively smoking cigarettes. Accounting for body mass index, pack-years, percent emphysema, and other confounding factors, actively smoking predicted a lower attenuation in both males (β0 =-0.88 HU, P<.001) and females (β0 =-0.69 HU, P<.001), and an accelerated muscle attenuation decline-rate in males (β1=-0.08 HU/y, P<.05). Age-stratified analyses indicated that the accelerated muscle attenuation decline associated with smoking likely occurred at younger age, especially in females. Conclusions Among lung cancer screening participants, active cigarette smoking was associated with greater skeletal muscle fat infiltration in both males and females, and accelerated muscle adipose accumulation rate in males. These findings support the important role of smoking cessation in preserving muscle health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate trends in the prevalence of physical activity (PA) from 2014 to 2020; to identify sex differences and sociodemographic and health-related factors associated with PA in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); and to compare PA between individuals with and without COPD. METHODS Cross-sectional and case-control study. SOURCE European Health Interview Surveys for Spain (EHISS) conducted in 2014 and 2020. We included sociodemographic and health-related covariates. We compared individuals with and without COPD after matching for age and sex. RESULTS The number of adults with COPD was 1086 and 910 in EHISS2014 and EHISS2020, respectively. In this population, self-reported "Medium or high frequency of PA" remained stable (42.9% in 2014 and 43.5% in 2020; p = 0.779). However, the percentage who walked on two or more days per week rose significantly over time (63.4%-69.9%; p = 0.004). Men with COPD reported more PA than women with COPD in both surveys. After matching, significantly lower levels of PA were recorded in COPD patients than in adults without COPD. Multivariable logistic regression confirmed this trend in COPD patients and showed that male sex, younger age, higher educational level, very good/good self-perceived health, and absence of comorbidities, obesity, and smoking were associated with more frequent PA. CONCLUSIONS The temporal trend in PA among Spanish adults with COPD is favorable, although there is much room for improvement. Insufficient PA is more prevalent in these patients than in the general population. Sex differences were found, with significantly more frequent PA among males with COPD.

Abstract
Current literature yields unequivocal results regarding the effect of body composition on physical function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and disproportionately includes a majority of males. The purpose of this study was to determine whether specific body composition measures are significantly associated with physical function and exercise capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with equal representation of males and females. Independent variables included sex, total body mass, total body lean and fat mass, appendicular total mass, and appendicular lean and fat mass. Dependent variables included peak oxygen consumption, 6-minute walk distance and self-reported physical function. Patients (n = 170) with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry data, 6-minute walk distance, and self-reported physical function were used for these analyses. A sub-set of 145 of these patients with peak oxygen consumption data were also analysed. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used to determine if sex and body composition measures correlated with physical function and exercise capacity and if they explained additional variance after controlling for disease severity. After controlling for disease severity, appendicular lean mass, total body fat mass, and sex explained an additional 16.5% of the variance in peak oxygen consumption (p < 0.001). Appendicular lean mass explained an additional 8.9% of the variance in 6-minute walk distance (p < 0.001) and an additional 2.5% of the variance in self-reported physical function (p = 0.057). Body composition measures may further predict exercise capacity, 6-minute walk distance, and self-reported physical function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Abstract
Association between smoking intensity and the quantity and quality of thoracic skeletal muscles (TSMs) remains unexplored. Skeletal muscle index (SMI; skeletal muscle area/height2) and percentage of normal attenuation muscle area (NAMA%) were measured to represent the quantity and quality of the skeletal muscles, respectively, and quantification was performed in pectoralis muscle at aortic arch (AA-PM), TSM at carina (C-TSM), erector spinae muscle at T12 (T12-ESM), and skeletal muscle at L1 (L1-SM). Among the 258 men (median age, 62 years [IQR: 58-69]), 183 were current smokers (median smoking intensity, 40 pack-years [IQR: 30-46]). SMI and NAMA% of AA-PM significantly decreased with pack-year (β = - 0.028 and - 0.076; P < 0.001 and P = 0.021, respectively). Smoking intensity was inversely associated with NAMA% of C-TSM (β = - 0.063; P = 0.001), whereas smoking intensity showed a borderline association with SMI of C-TSM (β = - 0.023; P = 0.057). Smoking intensity was associated with the change in NAMA% of L1-SM (β = - 0.040; P = 0.027), but was not associated with SMI of L1-SM (P > 0.05). Neither NAMA% nor SMI of T12-ESM was affected by smoking intensity (P > 0.05). In conclusion, smoking intensity was associated with the change of TSMs. Its association varied according to the location of TSMs, with the most associated parts being the upper (AA-PM) and middle TSMs (C-TSM).

Abstract
PURPOSE Swallowing impairment is a serious extra-pulmonary manifestation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Previous studies suggest that individuals with stable COPD show atypical values for several videofluoroscopy measures of swallowing, compared to healthy adults under age 60. However, it is unclear to what degree these changes are attributable to healthy aging. In this study, we aimed to clarify how swallowing in people with stable COPD differs from age-matched healthy controls. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of videofluoroscopy data from two previously-collected datasets: a) a sample of 28 adults with stable COPD (18 male); b) a sample of 76 healthy adults, from which 28 adults were selected, matched for sex and age to participants in the COPD cohort. In both prior studies, participants swallowed 20% w/v liquid barium prepared in different consistencies (thin; mildly, moderately, and extremely thick). Blinded duplicate ratings were performed according to a standard procedure, yielding measures of laryngeal vestibule closure (LVC) integrity and timing, swallow timing, upper esophageal sphincter (UES) opening, pharyngeal constriction and pharyngeal residue. Mann-Whitney U tests and odds ratios were performed to determine significant group differences (p<.05). RESULTS Across the consistencies tested, participants with COPD showed significantly shorter durations of LVC, earlier onsets and shorter durations of UES opening, and reduced pharyngeal constriction. No significant differences were seen in other measures. CONCLUSION These results point to features of swallowing in people with stable COPD that differ from changes seen with healthy aging, and which represent risks for potential aspiration.

Abstract
Age-related skeletal muscle atrophy and weakness not only reduce the quality of life of those afflicted, but also worsen the prognosis of underlying diseases. We evaluated the effect of RGX365, a protopanaxatriol-type rare ginsenoside mixture, on improving skeletal muscle atrophy. We investigated the myogenic effect of RGX365 on mouse myoblast cells (C2C12) and dexamethasone (10 µM)-induced atrophy of differentiated C2C12. RGX365-treated myotube diameters and myosin heavy chain (MyHC) expression levels were analyzed using immunofluorescence. We evaluated the myogenic effects of RGX365 in aging sarcopenic mice. RGX365 increased myoblast differentiation and MyHC expression, and attenuated the muscle atrophy-inducing F-box (Atrogin-1) and muscle RING finger 1 (MuRF1) expression. Notably, one month of oral administration of RGX365 to 23-month-old sarcopenic mice improved muscle fiber size and the expression of skeletal muscle regeneration-associated molecules. In conclusion, rare ginsenosides, agonists of steroid receptors, can ameliorate skeletal muscle atrophy during long-term administration.

Abstract
Background Sarcopenia, a syndrome characterized by a progressive decline in skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function, is frequently associated with chronic diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a prevalent condition among patients with sarcopenia. Reports suggest that between 15% and 55% of stable COPD patients have sarcopenia. Therefore, the present study aims to determine the association between sarcopenia and chronic renal failure (overt and concealed) in COPD patients. Methodology This institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted on patients diagnosed with COPD. Hospitalized adult COPD patients who gave consent were included. Sociodemographic information such as age, gender, residence, and prolonged length of stay in the hospital (categorized by a median of 10 days, considering its data distribution in our sample) was obtained using electronic medical records. Skeletal muscle %, visceral fat %, and body fat % were calculated using a bio-electrical impedance analysis device (Omron Body Composition Monitor, Model HBF-702T). Additionally, the strength of the hand grip was measured using a hand dynamometer. Sarcopenia was assessed following the criteria set by the Asian Working Group on Sarcopenia (AWGS). Chronic renal failure (CRF) was assessed by calculating the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study Group equation. Quantitative data were compared using an independent sample t-test. The association was determined using chi-square and multivariate logistic regression analyses. A p-value of <0.05 was considered significant. Results The study found that the proportion of sarcopenia in COPD patients was 52%, with overt and concealed CRF prevalence rates of 31.5% and 27%, respectively. Sarcopenic individuals had significantly lower FEV1 and FEV1/FVC compared to non-sarcopenic patients. The incidence of sarcopenia significantly increased with rising BODE index (body mass index (BMI, B), airflow obstruction (O) as measured by the post-bronchodilator FEV1 (percentage of predicted value), dyspnea (D) assessed by the modified Medical Research Council (MMRC) score, and exercise tolerance (E) measured by 6-minute walking distance) and mMRC (modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale) dyspnea scale scores. Both concealed CRF and overt CRF patients had four times higher odds of having sarcopenia (AOR=4). Conclusion The study reveals a high prevalence of sarcopenia and provides evidence for the association between sarcopenia and chronic renal failure in COPD patients. These findings underscore the importance of early detection and management of sarcopenia and CRF in COPD patients to optimize their clinical outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Mounting evidences have highlighted the association between metabolites and cardiovascular diseases. Our previous works have demonstrated that circulating metabolite, trimethylamine oxide, was associated with prognosis of patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Choline is a precursor of trimethylamine oxide and its role in PH remains unknown. Here, we aimed to validate the hypothesis that circulating choline levels were associated with prognoses in patients with PH. METHODS Inpatients diagnosed with PH-defined as mean pulmonary arterial pressure ≥ 25 mmHg by right heart catheterisation-from Fuwai Hospital were enrolled after excluding relative comorbidities. Fasting blood samples were obtained to assess choline levels and other clinical variables. The primary endpoints were defined as death, escalation of targeted medication, rehospitalization due to heart failure, PH deterioration. The follow-up duration was defined as the time from the choline examination to the occurrence of outcomes or the end of the study. The associations between circulating choline levels and disease severity and prognoses were explored. RESULTS Totally, 272 inpatients with PH were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into high and low choline groups according to the 50th quartile of circulating choline levels, defined as 12.6 µM. After confounders adjustment, the high circulating choline levels were still associated with poor World Health Organization functional class, elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, and decreased cardiac output index indicating the severe disease condition. Moreover, elevated choline levels were associated with poor prognoses in PH patients even after adjusting for confounders (hazard ratio = 1.934; 95% CI, 1.034-3.619; P = 0.039). Subgroup analyses showed that choline levels predicted the prognosis of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension but not chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. CONCLUSIONS Choline levels were associated with disease severity and poor prognoses of patients with PH, especially in pulmonary arterial hypertension suggesting its potential biomarker role.

Abstract
Objective To assess sociodemographic, medical complexity, and outcomes of persons receiving care at inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) with and without a diagnosis of COVID-19. Design A retrospective cohort study using electronic medical record (EMR) data from 138 IRFs across 34 states and Puerto Rico. Setting N/A. Participants IRF EMR data for 212,663 patients discharged between 04/01/2020 and 05/31/2021 (N=212,663), of which 16,199 (COVID-19 group) had a primary or secondary COVID-19 diagnosis based upon ICD codes set (ICD-10 codes U07.1, B94.8, Z86.19, Z86.16). Main Outcome Measures Four categories: (a) sociodemographic, (b) medical complexity, (c) process, that is, standard IRF processes, and clinical outcomes (collected routinely as part of administrative reporting), and (d) functional outcomes. Patients with missing functional data associated with short/incomplete stays (n=623) were excluded from analysis of functional outcomes category only. Standard descriptive analysis techniques were employed for comparing categorical and continuous variables between groups. Results Statistically significant differences were noted between the COVID-19 group and non-COVID groups for race (26.0% vs 19.7% non-minority, P<.001), Case Mix Index (1.49 vs 1.46, P<.001), Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services 60% rule qualification (79.0% vs 73.4%, P<.001), time to onset (24.3 vs 18.0 days, P<.001), length of stay (14.2 vs 12.9 days, P<.001), and discharge disposition (to community: 75.3% vs 81%, P<.001; to acute care facility: 15.6% vs 10.8%, P<.001). The COVID-19 group had higher frequency of respiratory and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, encephalopathy, morbid obesity, and critical illness neuropathy and myopathy. Clinically insignificant differences were noted for age, sex, depression, and cognitive assessment. Ability to participate and functional outcomes were comparable between the groups. Conclusion There are significant differences between the COVID-19 and non-COVID group in some sociodemographic, medical complexity, process and clinical outcomes, but not in functional outcomes. The ability to participate in the IRF-required intensity of therapy services along with attainment of comparable levels of functional outcomes supports the benefit of IRFs for persons with COVID-19.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess the residual effects of a 12-week concurrent training program (power training + high-intensity interval training) in older adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS A total of 21 older adults with COPD [intervention (INT), n = 8; control (CON), n = 13; 76.9 ± 6.8 years] were assessed at baseline and 10 months after the completion of the intervention by the short physical performance battery (SPPB), health-related quality of life (EQ-5D-5L), vastus lateralis muscle thickness (MT), peak pulmonary oxygen uptake (peak VO2 ) and peak work rate (Wpeak ), early and late isometric rate of force development (RFD), leg and chest press maximum muscle power (LPmax and CPmax ), and systemic oxidative damage and antioxidant capacity. RESULTS Compared to baseline, after 10 months of detraining, the INT group presented increased SPPB (∆ = 1.0 point), health-related quality of life (∆ = 0.07 points), early RFD (∆ = 834 N∙s-1 ), LPmax (∆ = 62.2 W), and CPmax (∆ = 16.0 W) (all p < 0.05). In addition, a positive effect was noted in INT compared to CON regarding MT and Wpeak (both p < 0.05). No between-group differences were reported in peak VO2 , late RFD, systemic oxidative damage, and antioxidant capacity from baseline to 10 months after the completion of the intervention (all p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Twelve weeks of concurrent training were enough to ensure improved physical function, health-related quality of life, early RFD and maximum muscle power and to preserve MT and Wpeak but not peak VO2 , late RFD, systemic oxidative damage and antioxidant capacity in the subsequent 10 months of detraining in older adults with COPD.

Abstract
Background Abnormal lung volumes representing air trapping identify the subset of smokers with preserved spirometry who develop spirometric chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and adverse outcomes. However, how lung volumes evolve in early COPD as airflow obstruction develops remains unclear. Methods To establish how lung volumes change with the development of spirometric COPD, we examined lung volumes from the pulmonary function data (seated posture) available in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs electronic health records (n=71,356) and lung volumes measured by computed tomography (supine posture) available from the COPD Genetic Epidemiology (COPDGene®) study (n=7969) and the SubPopulations and InterMediate Outcome Measures In COPD Study (SPIROMICS) (n=2552) cohorts, and studied their cross-sectional distributions and longitudinal changes across the airflow obstruction spectrum. Patients with preserved ratio-impaired spirometry (PRISm) were excluded from this analysis. Results Lung volumes from all 3 cohorts showed similar patterns of distributions and longitudinal changes with worsening airflow obstruction. The distributions for total lung capacity (TLC), vital capacity (VC), and inspiratory capacity (IC) and their patterns of change were nonlinear and included different phases. When stratified by airflow obstruction using Global initiative for chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) stages, patients with GOLD 1 (mild) COPD had larger lung volumes (TLC, VC, IC) compared to patients with GOLD 0 (smokers with preserved spirometry) or GOLD 2 (moderate) disease. In longitudinal follow-up of baseline GOLD 0 patients who progressed to spirometric COPD, those with an initially higher TLC and VC developed mild obstruction (GOLD 1) while those with an initially lower TLC and VC developed moderate obstruction (GOLD 2). Conclusions In COPD, TLC, and VC have biphasic distributions, change in nonlinear fashions as obstruction worsens, and could differentiate those GOLD 0 patients at risk for more rapid spirometric disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive condition associated with physical and cognitive impairments contributing to difficulty in performing activities of daily living (ADLs) that require dual tasking (eg, walking and talking). Despite evidence showing that cognitive decline occurs among patients with COPD and may contribute to functional limitations and decreased health-related quality of life (HRQL), pulmonary rehabilitation continues to focus mainly on physical training (ie, aerobic and strength exercises). An integrated cognitive and physical training program compared to physical training alone may be more effective in increasing dual-tasking ability among people living with COPD, leading to greater improvements in performance of ADLs and HRQL. OBJECTIVE The aims of this study are to evaluate the feasibility of an 8-week randomized controlled trial of home-based, cognitive-physical training versus physical training for patients with moderate to severe COPD and derive preliminary estimates of cognitive-physical training intervention efficacy on measures of physical and cognitive function, dual task performance, ADLs, and HRQL. METHODS A total of 24 participants with moderate to severe COPD will be recruited and randomized into cognitive-physical training or physical training. All participants will be prescribed an individualized home physical exercise program comprising 5 days of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (30-50 minutes/session) and 2 days of whole-body strength training per week. The cognitive-physical training group will also perform cognitive training for approximately 60 minutes, 5 days per week via the BrainHQ platform (Posit Science Corporation). Participants will meet once weekly with an exercise professional (via videoconference) who will provide support by reviewing the progression of their training and addressing any queries. Feasibility will be assessed through the recruitment rate, program adherence, satisfaction, attrition, and safety. The intervention efficacy regarding dual task performance, physical function, ADLs, and HRQL will be evaluated at baseline and at 4 and 8 weeks. Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize intervention feasibility. Paired 2-tailed t tests and 2-tailed t tests will be used to compare the changes in the outcome measures over the 8-week study period within and between the 2 randomized groups, respectively. RESULTS Enrollment started in January 2022. It is estimated that the enrollment period will be 24 months long, with data collection to be completed by December 2023. CONCLUSIONS A supervised home-based cognitive-physical training program may be an accessible intervention to improve dual-tasking ability in people living with COPD. Evaluating the feasibility and effect estimates is a critical first step to inform future clinical trials evaluating this approach and its effects on physical and cognitive function, ADL performance, and HRQL.

Abstract
The relationship of circulating testosterone levels with health outcomes in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is unknown. AIM To determine whether serum testosterone levels predict hospitalised acute exacerbations of COPD (H-AECOPD), cardiovascular disease outcome, and mortality in people with COPD. METHODS Separate analyses were carried out on two observational, multicentre COPD cohorts, Evaluation of COPD Longitudinally to Identify Predictive Surrogate End-points (ECLIPSE) and Evaluation of the Role of Inflammation in Chronic Airways Disease (ERICA), both of which had serum testosterone measured using a validated liquid chromatography assay at the same laboratory. Data from 1296 male participants in ECLIPSE and 386 male, 239 female participants in ERICA were analysed. All analyses were sex-specific. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine associations with H-AECOPD during follow-up (3 years ECLIPSE, 4.5 years ERICA), a composite endpoint of cardiovascular hospitalisation and cardiovascular death, and all-cause mortality. RESULTS Mean (SD) testosterone levels were consistent across cohorts; 459 (197) and 455 (200) ng/dL for males in ECLIPSE and ERICA, respectively, and in ERICA females: 28 (56) ng/dL. Testosterone was not associated with H-AECOPD (ECLIPSE: OR: 0.76, p=0.329, ERICA males: OR (95% CI): 1.06 (0.73 to 1.56), p=0.779, ERICA females: OR: 0.77 (0.52 to 1.12), p=0.178) or cardiovascular hospitalisation and death. Testosterone was associated with all-cause mortality in Global Initiative for Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) stage 2 male patients only, in ECLIPSE (OR: 0.25, p=0.007) and ERICA (OR: (95% CI): 0.56 (0.32 to 0.95), p=0.030). CONCLUSIONS Testosterone levels do not relate to H-AECOPD or cardiovascular outcome in COPD, but are associated with all-cause mortality in GOLD stage 2 COPD male patients, although the clinical significance of this finding is uncertain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal muscle atrophy, a common complication of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and its presence upon diagnosis can indicate a poor prognosis. Patients with IPF frequently experience acute exacerbations (AE), which is associated with a high mortality rate. However, the association between skeletal muscle atrophy and short-term mortality remains unknown. METHODS We performed a retrospective, multicenter cohort study of patients admitted for AE-IPF in Japan. The cross-sectional areas of the erector spinae muscle (ESMCSA) and the pectoralis muscle (PMCSA) were analyzed via single-slice computed tomography (CT). The primary outcome was 90-day mortality. Survival probability was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the log-rank test was used between the low and high groups of ESMCSA and PMCSA. We used multivariable Cox proportional-hazards models to evaluate the association between ESMCSA and PMCSA and prognosis. RESULTS Of the 212 patients included, 94 (44%) died during the observation period. The low ESMCSA group (<25.6 cm2) had a significantly worse prognosis than that of the high ESMCSA group (≥25.6 cm2) (hazard ratio (HR) [95% confidence interval (CI)]: 1.52 [1.00-2.33], P = 0.049). Multivariable analyses showed that all-cause mortality was associated with low ESMCSA (model 1, adjusted HR [95% CI]: 1.59 [0.98-2.60]; model 2, 1.55 [0.95-2.56], and model 3, 1.67 [1.00-2.78], respectively). The adjusted HR of low PMCSA (<20.4 cm2) vs. high PMCSA (≥20.4 cm2) was 1.39 (95% CI: 0.88-2.20). CONCLUSIONS Low ESMCSA on CT images is associated with a high 90-day mortality rate in patients with AE-IPF.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Current COPD diagnosis (i.e., spirometry) could be unreliable because the test depends on an adequate effort from the tester and testee. Moreover, the early diagnosis of COPD is challenging. The authors address COPD detection by constructing two novel physiological signals datasets (4432 records from 54 patients in the WestRo COPD dataset and 13824 medical records from 534 patients in the WestRo Porti COPD dataset). The authors demonstrate their complex coupled fractal dynamical characteristics and perform a fractional-order dynamics deep learning analysis to diagnose COPD. The authors found that the fractional-order dynamical modeling can extract distinguishing signatures from the physiological signals across patients with all COPD stages-from stage 0 (healthy) to stage 4 (very severe). They use the fractional signatures to develop and train a deep neural network that predicts COPD stages based on the input features (such as thorax breathing effort, respiratory rate, or oxygen saturation). The authors show that the fractional dynamic deep learning model (FDDLM) achieves a COPD prediction accuracy of 98.66% and can serve as a robust alternative to spirometry. The FDDLM also has high accuracy when validated on a dataset with different physiological signals.

Abstract
Muscle weakness as a secondary feature of attenuated neuronal input often leads to disability and sometimes death in patients with neurogenic neuromuscular diseases. These impaired muscle function has been observed in several diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Charcot-Marie-Tooth, spinal muscular atrophy and Myasthenia gravis. This has spurred the search for small molecules which could activate fast skeletal muscle troponin complex as a means to increase muscle strength. Discovered small molecules have however been punctuated by off-target and side effects leading to the development of the second-generation small molecule, Reldesemtiv. In this study, we investigated the impact of Reldesemtiv binding to the fast skeletal troponin complex and the molecular determinants that condition the therapeutic prowess of Redesemtiv through computational techniques. It was revealed that Reldesemtiv binding possibly potentiates troponin C compacting characterized by reduced exposure to solvent molecules which could favor the slow release of calcium ions and the resultant sensitization of the subunit to calcium. These conformational changes were underscored by conventional and carbon hydrogen bonds, pi-alkyl, pi-sulfur and halogen interactions between Reldesemtiv the binding site residues. Arg113 (-3.96 kcal/mol), Met116 (-2.23 kcal/mol), Val114 (-1.28 kcal/mol) and Met121 (-0.63 kcal/mol) of the switch region of the inhibitory subunit were among the residues that contributed the most to the total free binding energy of Reldesemtiv highlighting their importance. These findings present useful insights which could lay the foundation for the development of fast skeletal muscle small molecule activators with high specificity and potency.

Abstract
We hypothesized that a rise in the levels of oxidative/nitrosative stress markers and a decline in antioxidants might take place in systemic and muscle compartments of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with non-anemic iron deficiency. In COPD patients with/without iron depletion (n = 20/group), markers of oxidative/nitrosative stress and antioxidants were determined in blood and vastus lateralis (biopsies, muscle fiber phenotype). Iron metabolism, exercise, and limb muscle strength were assessed in all patients. In iron-deficient COPD compared to non-iron deficient patients, oxidative (lipofuscin) and nitrosative stress levels were greater in muscle and blood compartments and proportions of fast-twitch fibers, whereas levels of mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (SOD) and Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) decreased. In severe COPD, nitrosative stress and reduced antioxidant capacity were demonstrated in vastus lateralis and systemic compartments of iron-deficient patients. The slow- to fast-twitch muscle fiber switch towards a less resistant phenotype was significantly more prominent in muscles of these patients. Iron deficiency is associated with a specific pattern of nitrosative and oxidative stress and reduced antioxidant capacity in severe COPD irrespective of quadriceps muscle function. In clinical settings, parameters of iron metabolism and content should be routinely quantify given its implications in redox balance and exercise tolerance.

Abstract
Breathing control exercises are an important component of occupational therapy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Delivering these exercises in group settings may enhance their benefits. Therefore, this study assessed the effectiveness of breathing control exercises delivered in a group format to patients with severe COPD remitting from an acute pulmonary exacerbation. This randomized controlled trial of 6 weeks’ duration compared the addition of breathing exercise sessions delivered in a group setting to a standard exercise inpatient rehabilitation program (usual care) versus usual care alone. The standard exercise program consisted of endurance and strength training and therapeutic patient education. The intervention group received, in addition to usual care, 20 sessions of 30 min duration of breathing control exercises in a group setting. The primary outcome was quality of life (Saint George’s Respiratory Questionnaire). Secondary outcomes were the COPD assessment test, modified Borg scale, handgrip strength test, and five-time sit-to-stand test. Thirty-seven patients aged 69 ± 7 years were recruited. After the 6-week period, all outcomes significantly improved and exceeded the minimal clinically important difference in the intervention group only. Between-group changes were significant for each outcome. Conclusions: breathing control exercises in a group setting provide clinically relevant benefits in patients with severe COPD who are remitting from an acute pulmonary exacerbation.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients manifest muscle dysfunction and impaired muscle oxidative capacity, which result in reduced exercise capacity and poor health status. This study examined the effects of 12-week eccentric (ECC) and concentric (CONC) cycling training on plasma markers of cardiometabolic health, oxidative stress, and inflammation in COPD patients. A randomized trial in which moderate COPD was allocated to ECC (n = 10; 68.2 ± 10.0 year) or CONC (n = 10; 71.1 ± 10.3 year) training groups. Participants performed 12-week ECC or CONC training, 2-3 sessions per week, 10 to 30 min per session. Before and after training, peak oxygen consumption, maximal power output (VO2peak and POmax), and time-to-exhaustion (TTE) tests were performed. Plasma antioxidant and oxidative markers, insulin resistance, lipid profile, and systemic inflammation markers were measured before and after training at rest. VO2peak, POmax and TTE remained unchanged after ECC and CONC. CONC induced an increase in antioxidants (p = 0.01), while ECC decreased antioxidant (p = 0.02) markers measured at rest. CONC induced lesser increase in oxidative stress following TTE (p = 0.04), and a decrease in insulin resistance (p = 0.0006) compared to baseline. These results suggest that CONC training induced an increase in insulin sensitivity, antioxidant capacity at rest, and lesser exercise-induced oxidative stress in patients with moderate COPD.

Abstract
The proportion of obese or overweight patients in COPD patients is increasing. Although BMI, WC and other easy to measure indicators have been proven to be related to the risk of COPD, they cannot accurately reflect the distribution and changes of body composition, ignoring the body composition (such as fat distribution, muscle content, water content, etc.), the relationship between it and disease risk may be missed. By analyzing the correlation between different body composition indexes and COPD patients, we can provide new research ideas for the prognosis judgment or intervention of COPD disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of baseline lung function on the trajectory of frailty over time. METHODS This longitudinal study included 3,658 adults aged 60 and over (average age 70.4 years old and 46.4% males) at baseline from the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing. Lung function indicators included forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), both measured at baseline examination. Frailty was defined based on Fried's frailty phenotype criteria, the measurement was repeated for four times. Linear mixed-effect regression model was applied to estimate the association of baseline lung function with the trajectory of frailty over time. RESULTS Frailty score increased significantly over time (β = 0.030, P < 0.001). Linear mixed-effect regression model identified significant interactions between FVC (β =- 0.018, P < 0.001) or FEV1 (β =- 0.022, P < 0.001) and time on frailty. CONCLUSION Poor baseline lung function might accelerate the speed of frailty. Lung function might be an important predictor of the development and progression of frailty among older adults.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex chronic respiratory disease with cumulative impacts on multiple systems, exhibiting significant extrapulmonary impacts, and posing a serious public health problem. Skeletal muscle dysfunction is one of the most pronounced extrapulmonary effects in patients with COPD, which severely affects patient prognosis and mortality primarily through reduced productivity resulting from muscle structural and functional alterations. Although the detailed pathogenesis of COPD has not been fully determined, some researchers agree that oxidative stress plays a significant role. Oxidative stress not only catalyzes the progression of pulmonary symptoms but also drives the development of skeletal muscle dysfunction. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), is a key transcription factor that regulates the antioxidant response and plays an enormous role in combating oxidative stress. In this review, we have summarized current research on oxidative stress damage to COPD skeletal muscle and analyzed the role of Nrf2 in improving skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD through exercise. The results suggest that oxidative stress drives the occurrence and development of skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD. Exercise may improve skeletal muscle dysfunction in patients with COPD by promoting the dissociation of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) and Nrf2, inducing sequestosome1(p62) phosphorylation to bind with Keap1 competitively leading to Nrf2 stabilization and improving dynamin-related protein 1-dependent mitochondrial fission. Nrf2 may be a key target for exercise anti-oxidative stress to alleviate skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early commencement of rehabilitation might counteract the loss of muscle strength due to a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease acute exacerbation (COPDAE). Blood flow restriction resistance exercise (BFR-RE) using a low intensity of training load has demonstrated muscle strength gain in varieties of clinical populations. This trial aimed at studying the efficacy and acceptability of BFR-RE in patients with post-COPDAE which was not reported before. METHOD A prospective, assessor blinded, randomized controlled study with 2-week in-patient rehabilitation program with BFR-RE was compared to a matched program with resistance exercise without BFR in patients with post-COPDAE. The primary outcome was the change of muscle strength of knee extensor of dominant leg. The secondary outcomes included changes of hand grip strength (HGS), 6-minute walk test (6MWT) distance, short physical performance battery (SPPB) scores, COPD assessment test (CAT) scores; acceptability and feasibility of BFR-RE; and 1-month unplanned re-admission rate. RESULTS Forty-Five post-COPDAE patients (mean age = 76 ± 10, mean FEV1%=49% ± 24%) were analyzed. After training, BFR-RE group and control group demonstrated a statistically significant median muscle strength gain of 20 (Interquartile range (IQR) 3 to 38) Newton(N) and 12 (IQR -9 to 30) N respectively. BFR-RE group showed a significant change in SPPB scores, but not in 6MWT distance and HGS after training. Between groups did not have statistically significant different in all primary and secondary outcomes, though with similar acceptability. Drop-out rate due to training-related discomfort in BFR-RE group was 3.7%. CONCLUSION BFR-RE is feasible and acceptable in patients with post-COPDAE. A 2-week inpatient pulmonary rehabilitation with BFR-RE improved muscle strength of knee extensors, but not a greater extent than the same rehabilitation program with resistance exercise without BFR. Further studies could be considered with a longer training duration and progression of resistance load. [ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04448236].

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the associations of circulating liver function marker levels with the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS We leveraged the data of 372,056 participants from the UK Biobank between 2006 and 2010. The assessed circulating liver function markers included alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin (TBIL), albumin (ALB), and total protein (TP). Incident COPD was identified through linkage to the National Health Service registries. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 12.3 (interquartile range:11.4-13.2) years, we documented 10,001 newly diagnosed COPD cases. Lower levels of ALT, TBIL, ALB, and TP and higher levels of GGT and ALP were nonlinearly associated with elevated COPD risk. The HR (95% CI) for decile 10 vs. 1 was 0.92 (0.84-1.01) for ALT, 0.82 (0.75-0.89) for TBIL, 0.74 (0.67-0.81) for ALB, 0.96 (0.88-1.04) for TP, 1.45 (1.31-1.62) for GGT, and 1.31 (1.19-1.45) for ALP. Restricted cubic spline analyses suggested a U-shaped relationship between AST levels and COPD risk (P for nonlinearity <0.05). CONCLUSION We observed that all seven circulating liver function markers were nonlinearly associated with the risk of COPD, indicating the importance of liver function in COPD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Novel biomarkers related to main clinical hallmarks of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a heterogeneous disorder with pulmonary and extra-pulmonary manifestations, were investigated by profiling the serum levels of 1305 proteins using Slow Off-rate Modified Aptamers (SOMA)scan technology. METHODS Serum samples were collected from 241 COPD subjects in the multicenter French Cohort of Bronchial obstruction and Asthma to measure the expression of 1305 proteins using SOMAscan proteomic platform. Clustering of the proteomics was applied to identify disease subtypes and their functional annotation and association with key clinical parameters were examined. Cluster findings were revalidated during a follow-up visit, and compared to those obtained in a group of 47 COPD patients included in the Melbourne Longitudinal COPD Cohort. RESULTS Unsupervised clustering identified two clusters within COPD subjects at inclusion. Cluster 1 showed elevated levels of factors contributing to tissue injury, whereas Cluster 2 had higher expression of proteins associated with enhanced immunity and host defense, cell fate, remodeling and repair and altered metabolism/mitochondrial functions. Patients in Cluster 2 had a lower incidence of exacerbations, unscheduled medical visits and prevalence of emphysema and diabetes. These protein expression patterns were conserved during a follow-up second visit, and substanciated, by a large part, in a limited series of COPD patients. Further analyses identified a signature of 15 proteins that accurately differentiated the two COPD clusters at the 2 visits. CONCLUSIONS This study provides insights into COPD heterogeneity and suggests that overexpression of factors involved in lung immunity/host defense, cell fate/repair/ remodelling and mitochondrial/metabolic activities contribute to better clinical outcomes. Hence, high throughput proteomic assay offers a powerful tool for identifying COPD endotypes and facilitating targeted therapies.

Abstract
Aging is associated with a progressive decrease in skeletal muscle mass, strength and power and impairment of physical function. Serum testosterone concentrations in men decrease with advancing age due to defects at all levels of the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis. Testosterone administration increases skeletal muscle mass, strength and power in older men with low or low normal testosterone levels, but the effects on performance-based measures of physical function have been inconsistent. Adequately powered randomized trials are needed to determine the long-term safety and efficacy of testosterone in improving physical function and quality of life in older adults with functional limitations.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the association between night-time sleep duration and hand grip strength (HGS) among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Participants aged ≥45 years were included in a nationally representative investigation clinical study in 2015. HGS was measured using dynamometers. The data on night-time sleep duration, sociodemographic information, and health-related variables were systematically collected. For analysis, sleep duration was categorized as <5 h, 5-7 h, 7 h, 7-9 h, and >9 h. Multivariable linear regression models were used to determine the possible association between the night-time sleep duration and HGS. Our results indicated that the shortest (<5 h) or the longest sleep duration (>9 h) was relevant to high risk of weaker HGS in females. In males, the shortest (<5 h) sleep duration was correlated to lower HGS. Thus, our findings clearly suggest that health care providers should focus on the potential influence of sleep duration on HGS among COPD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While the association between handgrip strength and all-cause mortality is more deeply explored, no previous studies have been specifically focused on handgrip strength and respiratory disease mortality. The purpose of the study was to investigate the association between handgrip strength and respiratory disease mortality in a large representative sample. METHODS Individuals aged 50 or over from 27 European countries and Israel participated in this longitudinal study. Data on handgrip strength and all-cause and respiratory disease mortality were retrieved from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) waves 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7. We estimated the sub hazard ratios (SHRs) for respiratory disease mortality using a Fine-Gray sub-distribution method with both time-varying exposure and covariates and mortality due to other causes as competing risk. Furthermore, we assessed dose-response associations of handgrip strength (modelled as a continuous exposure) with respiratory disease mortality using restricted cubic splines and estimated hazard ratios (HRs). RESULTS We included 60,883 men and 74,904 women with a mean age of 63.6 (SD 9.7) years at study entry. During a median (interquartile range) of 7.4 years of follow-up 565 (0.4%) participants died due to respiratory diseases. The increase of 1 single kg of handgrip strength showed a 6% incidence reduction on respiratory disease mortality (SHR, 0.94; 95%CI, 0.92-0.96) after adjusting for potential confounders. Furthermore, each kg increase of handgrip strength reduced respiratory disease mortality risk in a dose-response fashion and a significant threshold for values of 41 kg (HR, 0.49; 95%CI, 0.26-0.92) and higher was identified. CONCLUSIONS Higher handgrip strength is associated with lower mortality due to respiratory disease. Intervention studies are needed to determine whether strength training in respiratory disease patients can prevent premature mortality.

Abstract
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) demonstrate extra-pulmonary functional decline such as an increased prevalence of falls. Biomechanics offers insight into functional decline by examining mechanics of abnormal movement patterns. This review discusses biomechanics of functional outcomes, muscle mechanics, and breathing mechanics in patients with COPD as well as future directions and clinical perspectives. Patients with COPD demonstrate changes in their postural sway during quiet standing compared to controls, and these deficits are exacerbated when sensory information (eg, eyes closed) is manipulated. If standing balance is disrupted with a perturbation, patients with COPD are slower to return to baseline and their muscle activity is differential from controls. When walking, patients with COPD appear to adopt a gait pattern that may increase stability (eg, shorter and wider steps, decreased gait speed) in addition to altered gait variability. Biomechanical muscle mechanics (ie, tension, extensibility, elasticity, and irritability) alterations with COPD are not well documented, with relatively few articles investigating these properties. On the other hand, dyssynchronous motion of the abdomen and rib cage while breathing is well documented in patients with COPD. Newer biomechanical technologies have allowed for estimation of regional, compartmental, lung volumes during activity such as exercise, as well as respiratory muscle activation during breathing. Future directions of biomechanical analyses in COPD are trending toward wearable sensors, big data, and cloud computing. Each of these offers unique opportunities as well as challenges. Advanced analytics of sensor data can offer insight into the health of a system by quantifying complexity or fluctuations in patterns of movement, as healthy systems demonstrate flexibility and are thus adaptable to changing conditions. Biomechanics may offer clinical utility in prediction of 30-day readmissions, identifying disease severity, and patient monitoring. Biomechanics is complementary to other assessments, capturing what patients do, as well as their capability.

Abstract
Objective To quantitatively evaluate the bilateral diaphragmatic motion difference during forced breathing between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and healthy individuals using dynamic chest radiography technique. Methods This prospective study included the COPD patients (n: 96, f/m: 17/79, age: 66 ± 8 years old) and healthy individuals (n: 50, f/m: 42/8, age: 53 ± 5 years old) that underwent dynamic chest radiography with a flat panel X-ray detector system during forced breathing in a standing position. After analyzing the excursions, duration and velocity of diaphragmatic motion were automatically calculated using the postprocessing software. The parameters of diaphragmatic motion including excursion, duration, velocity, inhalation/exhalation times were assessed in all subjects for both diaphragms. The correlation between lung function parameters and diaphragmatic motion excursions were further evaluated. Results The excursions of diaphragmatic motion in COPD patients were significantly decreased in COPD patients compared with healthy individuals during forced breathing (P < 0.05). The excursion in COPD patients was 35.93 ± 13.07 mm vs. 41.49 ± 12.07 mm in healthy individuals in the left diaphragm, and 32.05 ± 12.29 mm in COPD patients vs. 36.88 ± 10.96 mm in healthy individuals in the right diaphragm. The duration of diaphragmatic motion significantly decreased in COPD patients, compared with the healthy individuals (P < 0.05). The inhalation time in COPD patients was 2.03 ± 1.19 s vs. 2.53 ± 0.83 s in healthy individuals in the left diaphragm and 1.94 ± 1.32 s in COPD patients vs. 2.23 ± 1.21 s in healthy individuals in the right diaphragm. The exhalation time was 4.77 ± 1.32 s in COPD patients vs. 6.40 ± 2.73 s in healthy individuals in the left diaphragm and 4.94 ± 3.30 s in COPD patients vs. 6.72 ± 2.58 s in healthy individuals in the right diaphragm. The peak velocity of diaphragmatic motion showed no significant difference between COPD and healthy groups. The excursions of bilateral diaphragmatic motion showed moderate correlation with FEV1/FVC (r = 0.44, P < 0.001). Multi-linear regression analysis showed that the excursions of bilateral diaphragm are significantly associated with COPD occurrence (P < 0.05). Conclusion The excursions and duration of diaphragmatic motion during forced breathing are significantly decreased in COPD patients, compared with healthy individuals. Our study showed that precise bilateral diaphragmatic motion activity can be evaluated by dynamic chest radiography.

Abstract
Locomotor skeletal muscle dysfunction is a relevant comorbidity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is strongly associated with worse clinical outcomes including higher mortality. Over the last decades, a large body of literature helped characterize the process, defining the disruptive muscle phenotype caused by COPD that involves reduction in muscle mass, force-generation capacity, fatigue-tolerance, and regenerative potential following injury. A major limitation in the field has been the scarcity of well-calibrated animal models to conduct mechanistic research based on loss- and gain-of-function studies. This article provides an overall description of the process, the tools available to mechanistically investigate it, and the potential role of mitochondrially driven metabolic signals on the regulation muscle regeneration after injury in COPD. Finally, a description of future avenues to further expand on the area is proposed based on very recent evidence involving mitochondrial metabolic cues affecting myogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Beta-alanine (BA) supplementation increases muscle carnosine, an abundant endogenous antioxidant and pH buffer in skeletal muscle. Carnosine loading promotes exercise capacity in healthy older adults. As patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) suffer from elevated exercise-induced muscle oxidative/carbonyl stress and acidosis, and from reduced muscle carnosine stores, it was investigated whether BA supplementation augments muscle carnosine and induces beneficial changes in exercise capacity, quadriceps function, and muscle oxidative/carbonyl stress in patients with COPD. METHODS In this double-blind, randomized, placebo (PL)-controlled trial (clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT02770417), 40 patients (75% male) with COPD (mean ± standard deviation: age 65 ± 6 years; FEV1 % predicted 55 ± 14%) were assigned to 12 weeks oral BA or PL supplementation (3.2 g/day). The primary outcome, i.e. muscle carnosine, was quantified from m. vastus lateralis biopsies obtained before and after intervention. Co-primary outcomes, i.e. incremental and constant work rate cycle capacity, were also assessed. Linear mixed model analyses were performed. Compliance with and side effects of supplement intake and secondary outcomes (quadriceps strength and endurance, and muscle oxidative/carbonyl stress) were also assessed. RESULTS Beta-alanine supplementation increased muscle carnosine in comparison with PL in patients with COPD (mean difference [95% confidence interval]; +2.82 [1.49-4.14] mmol/kg wet weight; P < 0.001). Maximal incremental cycling capacity (VO2 peak: +0.5 [-0.7 to 1.7] mL/kg/min; P = 0.384, Wpeak: +5 [-1 to 11] W; P = 0.103) and time to exhaustion on the constant work rate cycle test (+28 [-179 to 236] s; P = 0.782) did not change significantly. Compliance with supplement intake was similar in BA (median (quartile 1-quartile 3); 100 (98-100)%) and PL (98 (96-100)%) (P = 0.294) groups, and patients did not report side effects possibly related to supplement intake. No change was observed in secondary outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Beta-alanine supplementation is efficacious in augmenting muscle carnosine (+54% from mean baseline value) without side effects in patients with COPD in comparison with PL. However, accompanied beneficial changes in exercise capacity, quadriceps function, and muscle oxidative/carbonyl stress were not observed.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a highly prevalent condition affecting a growing number of patients affected by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), with crucial implications for risk of fragility fractures, hospitalization, and mortality. Several risk factors have been identified to have a role in osteoporosis development in COPD patients, including corticosteroid therapy, systemic inflammation, smoke, physical activity levels, malnutrition, and sarcopenia. In this scenario, a personalized multitarget intervention focusing on the pathological mechanisms underpinning osteoporosis is mandatory to improve bone health in these frail patients. Specifically, physical exercise, nutritional approach, dietary supplements, and smoke cessation are the cornerstone of the lifestyle approach to osteoporosis in COPD patients, improving not only bone health but also physical performance and balance. On the other hand, pharmacological treatment should be considered for both the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in patients at higher risk of fragility fractures. Despite these considerations, several barriers still affect the integration of a personalized approach to managing osteoporosis in COPD patients. However, digital innovation solutions and telemedicine might have a role in optimizing sustainable networking between hospital assistance and community settings to improve bone health and reduce sanitary costs of the long-term management of COPD patients with osteoporosis.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of resveratrol (RSV) on cigarette smoke (CS)-induced skeletal muscle atrophy and senescence in mice with emphysema and to explore the underlying mechanisms. Methods Gastrocnemius muscle weight and lung and muscular morphology were observed in CS-exposed mice with or without RSV treatment. The expression of atrophy-related markers (MURF1 and MAFbx), senescence-related markers (P53, P21 and SMP30) and NF-κB inflammatory pathways was detected by Western blotting and real-time PCR. The levels of IL-1β and TNF-α were also determined by ELISA, and the number of senescent cells was determined by SA-β gal staining. In addition, the expression of HDAC2 and the effect of HDAC2 on CSE-induced skeletal muscle atrophy and senescence by RSV treatment were investigated. Results RSV prevented emphysema and skeletal muscle atrophy in long-term CS-exposed mice. RSV decreased the expression of MURF1, MAFbx, P53, and P21 and inhibited the NF-κB pathway both in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, RSV reversed CS-induced downregulation of HDAC2 expression both in gastrocnemius and in C2C12 cells. Moreover, knockdown of HDAC2 significantly abolished the inhibitory effect of RSV on the expression of MURF1, MAFbx, P53, P21 and inflammatory factors (IL-1β and TNF-α) in C2C12 cells. Conclusion RSV prevents CS-induced skeletal muscle atrophy and senescence, and upregulation of HDAC2 expression and suppression of inflammation are involved.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), often caused by smoking, is a chronic lung disease with systemic manifestations including metabolic comorbidities. This study investigates adaptive and pathological alterations in adipose and skeletal muscle tissue following cigarette smoke exposure using in vivo and in vitro models. Mice were exposed to cigarette smoke or air for 72 days and the pre-adipose cell line 3T3-L1 was utilized as an in vitro model. Cigarette smoke exposure decreased body weight, and the proportional loss in fat mass was more pronounced than the lean mass loss. Cigarette smoke exposure reduced adipocyte size and increased adipocyte numbers. Adipose macrophage numbers and associated cytokine levels, including interleukin-1β, interleukine-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α were elevated in smoke-exposed mice. Muscle strength and protein synthesis signaling were decreased after smoke exposure; however, muscle mass was not changed. In vitro studies demonstrated that lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation were upregulated in cigarette smoke-exposed pre-adipocytes. In conclusion, cigarette smoke exposure induces a loss of whole-body fat mass and adipose atrophy, which is likely due to enhanced lipolysis.

Abstract
RESUMO A doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica (DPOC) provoca alterações no sistema musculoesquelético, afetando inclusive os músculos respiratórios e levando ao aumento da dispneia e à redução da capacidade funcional. Nesse sentido, o treinamento muscular inspiratório (TMI) deve fazer parte do programa de reabilitação pulmonar. Diversos estudos já demonstraram sua eficácia, contudo, ainda é necessário investigar qual a melhor forma de realizá-lo. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi investigar por meio de uma revisão sistemática a efetividade de diferentes protocolos e cargas de TMI sobre os desfechos de força e resistência dos músculos inspiratórios, bem como de capacidade funcional e redução da dispneia. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática realizada de acordo com o protocolo PRISMA. A busca foi realizada em fevereiro de 2021, nas seguintes bases de dados: PubMed, SciELO, PEDro. Para a busca dos artigos, os seguintes descritores foram empregados: “COPD”; e “breathing exercises, resistive training, respiratory muscle training”. Um total de 398 pacientes foram incluídos nos 10 estudos selecionados, todos previamente diagnosticados com DPOC. Foram utilizados diferentes dispositivos para o TMI, e os protocolos variaram em relação às cargas e progressão. O dispositivo mais utilizado entre os artigos foi o Threshold, com carga estabelecida de acordo com a porcentagem da pressão inspiratória máxima (30-80%), reajustada de acordo com novas medições a cada uma ou duas semanas. Houve semelhança de resultados positivos encontrados tanto em treinamentos com cargas baixas quanto com cargas altas, havendo uma melhora na força muscular inspiratória, capacidade funcional e dispneia. No entanto, mais estudos são necessários para definir o melhor protocolo de TMI para DPOC.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) changes the musculoskeletal system, including the respiratory muscles, which are responsible for increasing dyspnea and reducing functional capacity. Several studies have already showed the effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training (IMT); therefore, it should be part of the pulmonary rehabilitation program. However, assessing the best way to do it is still necessary. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate, by a systematic review, the effectiveness of different IMT protocols and loads on the outcomes of inspiratory muscle strength and endurance, functional capacity, and dyspnea reduction. This systematic review was performed in accordance with the PRISMA protocol. Studies were searched in February 2021 in the PubMed, SciELO, PEDro. For the search, the following keywords were used: “COPD” and “breathing exercises, resistive training, respiratory muscle training.” A total of 398 individuals previously diagnosed with COPD were included in the 10 selected studies. Different IMT devices were used and protocols varied in relation to loads and progression. Threshold was the most used IMT device. Its load was established according to the percentage of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) (30-80%) and readjusted according to new measurements taken every one or two weeks. Respiratory muscle training with both low loads and high loads presented positive results, however, establishing which is the best IMT protocol for individuals with COPD is not possible yet. Inspiratory muscle strength, functional capacity, and dyspnea get better with IMT.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle dysfunction is an important extrapulmonary comorbidity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Muscle-derived cytokines (myokines) play important roles in skeletal muscle growth and function, but their contributions to skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD have not been fully understood. In the current study, by using a well-established mouse model of COPD with skeletal muscle dysfunction, we found that the expressions of Fndc5 (fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5, the precursor of irisin) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) were decreased, while myostatin (Mstn), phosphorylated extracellular regulated kinase (p-Erk1/2), and p-Smad3 expressions were upregulated in skeletal muscles from cigarette smoke-exposed mice and in cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-stimulated C2C12 myotubes. Treatment with Smad3 or Erk1/2 inhibitors partially restored the expression of Fndc5 in CSE-stimulated C2C12 myotubes. Taken together, CSE exposure, by upregulation of p-Erk1/2, promoted the expression of Mstn, which further inhibited Fndc5 expression by the p-Smad3/PGC-1α pathway, revealing a novel regulating mechanism of myokines in the pathogenesis of skeletal muscle comorbidities of COPD.

Abstract
Introduction: Quadriceps dysfunction is a common systemic manifestation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), for which treatment using resistance training is highly recommended. Even though training volume is suggested to be a key explanatory factor for intramuscular adaptation to resistance training in healthy older adults, knowledge is scarce on the role of progression of training volume for intramuscular adaptations in COPD. Methods: This study was a sub-analysis of a parallel-group randomized controlled trial. Thirteen patients with severe to very severe COPD (median 66 yrs, forced expiratory volume in 1 s 44% predicted) performed 8 weeks of low-load resistance training. In a post hoc analysis, they were divided into two groups according to their training volume progression. Those in whom training volume continued to increase after the first 4 weeks of training outlined the continued progression group (n = 9), while those with limited increase (<5%) or even reduction in training volume after the initial 4 weeks composed the discontinued progression group (n = 4). Fiber-type distribution and oxidative muscle protein levels, i.e., citrate synthase (CS), hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase (HADH), mitochondrial transcription factor A (TfAM) as well as quadriceps endurance measures (total work from elastic band and isokinetic knee extension tests), were assessed before and after the intervention period. Results: The continued progression group sustained their training volume progression during weeks 5–8 compared to weeks 1–4 (median +25%), while the discontinued progression group did not (median -2%) (p = 0.007 between groups). Compared with baseline values, significant between-group differences in fiber type distribution and TfAM muscle protein levels (range ± 17–62%, p < 0.05) and in individual responses to change in Type I and Type IIa fiber type proportion, CS, HADH, and TfAM muscle protein levels outcomes (median 89 vs. 50%, p = 0.001) were seen in favor of the continued progression group. Moreover, only the continued progression group had a significant increase in HADH muscle protein levels (+24%, p = 0.004), elastic band (+56%, p = 0.004) and isokinetic (+7%, p = 0.004) quadriceps endurance, but the between-group differences did not reach statistical significance (range 14–29%, p = 0.330–1.000). Discussion: The novel findings of the current study were that patients with COPD who had a continued progression of training volume across the 8-weeks intervention had an increased proportion of Type I fibers, and TfAM muscle protein levels and decreased proportion of Type II fibers compared to those that did not continue to progress their training volume after the initial weeks. Additionally, HADH muscle protein levels and quadriceps endurance measurements only improved in the continued progression group, although no significant between-group differences were seen. These findings highlight the importance of continued progression of training volume during resistive training to counteract quadriceps dysfunction within the COPD population. Still, considering the small sample size and the post hoc nature of our analyses, these results should be interpreted cautiously, and further research is necessary.
