Evaluate the Effect of Dietary Supplement Combined Exercise Among Patients With Sarcopenia Comorbid With Lung Disease
This trial is a prospective multi-center study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of dietary supplement combined with supervised exercised on the physical performance, body composition and lung function among patients with Sarcopenia and severe Sarcopenia in chronic lung disease. After participants enroll in this study, …
Thermotherapy Against Persistent Bacterial LUNG Infections
The aim of this study is to determine whether an intervention with frequent thermotherapy will be able to reduce the amount of colonizing bacteria in the bronchoalveolar lavage sample and eradicate the colonizing bacteria.
Balance Training in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
The aim of the study will be to verify whether the addition of an exercise program aimed to improve balance can reduce the risk of falling in subjects with COPD over 80 years of age compared to the standard rehabilitation program. Patients will be randomly assigned in two groups (intervention …
Incident Chronic Obstructive pulmoNary dIsease Cohort Study (ICONIC)
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), , secondary to smoking, is a major public health issue with very high direct and indirect costs. The impact on the health system of undiagnosed patients, up to 70% of patients, is increasingly documented. However, systematic spirometry screening remains controversial among smokers in the absence …
Validation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Algorithm
Under-diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is prevalent, with an estimated 75% of adults suffering from COPD in the US, without clinical recognition. Often, the first diagnosis of COPD comes with a flare or exacerbation. In one study, 34% of patients were first diagnosed during hospitalization for an exacerbation, …
Hyper Polarized Xenon-129 MRI vs Xenon-133 Scintigraphy
Hyper polarized Xenon-129 MRI will be directly compared to a radioactive Xe-133 scintigraphy to detect defects in lung ventilation from airflow limitation. This study is conducted as a pilot study with intention to conduct a larger clinical trial.
Effects of Elastic Tape on Pulmonary Rehabilitation of Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Evaluate the effect of the use of elastic tape in chest wall and abdomen in the physical capacity, psychosocial distress levels, quality of life and anxiety, and depression symptoms of individuals with moderate to very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) undergoing pulmonary rehabilitation.
Inhaled Corticosteroids (ICS) on Pulmonary Endothelial Function in COPD
The study objective is to determine whether an ICS added for 4 weeks to a baseline treatment with a Long-Acting Beta-adrenergic Agonist (LABA) and Long-Acting Muscarinic Antagonist (LAMA) combination improves pulmonary vascular endothelial function as assessed by the vasodilator response to inhaled albuterol (endothelium-dependent vasodilation) in stable COPD patients treated …
Study on Impact of Maximal Strength Training in Patients With COPD
In the context of pulmonary rehabilitation of COPD patients, recent guidelines and metanalysis describe that Resistance Training (RT) can be successfully performed alone or in conjunction with Endurance Training (ET) without evidence of adverse events. Maximal Strength Training (MST) is a kind of RT typically performed at ~85-90% of 1RM …
Mapping and Characterization of Alveolar Cells During Smoking and Chronic Obstructive Disease
To evaluate the regenerative capacities of mesenchymal cells composing the microenvironment of alveolar type 2 cells in a population of patients, undergoing thoracic surgery for suspected cancer, who are smokers with and without COPD compared to non-smokers patients
