چکیده
Abstract Decreasing exercise tolerance is one of the key features related to a poor prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Cardiopulmonary testing (CPET) useful for evaluating tolerance. The present study was performed clarify correlation between and clinical parameters, focusing especially on cross-sectional area (CSA) skeletal muscle. investigated 69 COPD who underwent CPET. correlations oxygen uptake ( $${{\dot{\text{V}} \text{O}}}_{2}$$ V ? O 2 ) at peak parameters COPD, including muscle measured using single-section axial computed tomography (CT), were evaluated. assessment test score (? = ? 0.35, p 0.02) weakly correlated exercise. In addition, forced expiratory volume second (FEV 1 0.39, 0.0009), FEV /forced vital capacity 0.33, 0.006), CSA pectoralis muscles (PMs) 0.36, 0.007) erector spinae (ECMs) 0.003) Multivariate analysis adjusted by age indicated that PM after adjustment (? value [95% confidence interval] 0.175 [0.03–0.319], 0.02).

Cardiopulmonary exercise testing in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is characterized by limited exercise capacity as a result of changes in pulmonary mechanics, abnormal gas exchange, altered cardiac function, respiratory muscle dysfunction, nutritional factors, and dyspnea. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing is a safe, effective method for objectively studying exercise performance and may be carried out using simple w...
متن کاملEffects of Pentoxifylline on Oxygenation and Exercise Tolerance in Patients with Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Background: It was hypothesized that the use of Pentoxifylline would increase arterial O2 saturation and increase exercise tolerance in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Methods: We tested this hypothesis in 23 patients with COPD and pulmonary hypertension. Patients were randomized to receive Pentoxifylline or placebo, each for a 12-week period, in a prospectiv...

متن کاملAspergillus colonization in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Background and Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been recognized as a risk factor for invasive aspergillosis. Airway colonization by Aspergillus species is a common feature of chronic pulmonary diseases. Nowadays, the incidence of COPD has increased in critically ill patients. The aim of the present study was to isolate and identify Aspergillus colonies in the respirator...
متن کاملDecreased left ventricular stroke volume is associated with low-grade exercise tolerance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
BACKGROUND Low-grade exercise tolerance is associated with a poor prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The 6 min walk test (6MWT) is commonly used to evaluate exercise tolerance in patients with COPD. However, little is known regarding the relationship between cardiac function and exercise tolerance in patients with COPD. The aim of this study was to identify...
