A large amount of patients with COPD suffer from muscle dysfunction characterized by losses of muscle mass and strength. Studies have shown an association between a loss of quadriceps muscle mass and premature death. This study aims to investigate the clinimetric properties of a simple quadriceps perimetry and ShearWave elastography …
To determine the effect of motivational interviewing based on Pender's health promotion model on patient-reported outcomes in patients with COPD.
Dyspnea, cough, and chronic mucus hypersecretion are common symptoms in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), which increases risk of infections followed by exacerbations, often leading to hospitalization, disease progression and mortality. This patient group requires lifelong treatment in healthcare. A mobile application was developed to facilitate adherence to …
The goal of this study is to examine exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) caused by a common cold virus called rhinovirus, to identify new treatments. Exacerbations are flare-ups of respiratory symptoms which are a major cause of ill health in people with COPD, and are most commonly caused …
This study is planned to be conducted based on the cohort of patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in our hospital. Based on gut microbiota, random forest was used to search for potential diagnostic biomarkers in patients with frequent acute exacerbation and controls with non frequent acute exacerbation; Construct …
The goal of this observational study is to determine the prevalence of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among workers in an industrial zone in Thailand. The main question the study aims to answer is: What is the prevalence of asthma and COPD among workers in Thailand? Participants will …
Background Injury or diseases of the heart and lung can sometimes cause scar tissue (fibrosis) to build up in those organs. Current imaging scans can see this scar tissue once it has formed, but researchers want to find a way to detect the fibrosis in its earliest stages, while there …
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled corticosteroids combined with bronchodilators and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor plus platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common chronic disease that is characterized by persistent airflow limitation, that is due to airway and/or alveolar abnormalities usually caused by significant exposure to noxious particles or gases, particularly cigarette smoking. Latest updates of the Global Burden of Disease emphasize the dramatic size …
TRICOLON is an investigator initiated, prospective, interventional, open-label, randomized, real-world, multi-centre, 3-arms study in the Netherlands. The primary objective is to investigate in COPD patients if single-inhaler triple therapy (SITT) is superior to multi-inhaler triple therapy (MITT) in terms of adherence to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) therapy and to investigate if …
