The chronic bronchitis phenotype in subjects with and without COPD: the PLATINO study
(EUROPEAN RESPIRATORY SOC JOURNALS LTD, 2012)
Little information exists regarding the epidemiology of the chronic bronchitis phenotype in unselected chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) populations. We examined the prevalence of the chronic bronchitis phenotype ...

The exclusive presence of the chronic pulmonary disease could be more important in affecting autonomic cardiac modulation than the severity of airflow obstruction: Analysis using heart rate variability
(2018-04-01)
The autonomic nervous system regulates the caliber of the airways, blood flow, secretion production, modulates the inflammatory response and modulates airway responses to inflammation. Despite this, some intrinsic features ...
Peripheral blood eosinophils and nine years mortality in copd patients
(2021-01-01)
Background: Eosinophil counts increase during chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation and influence the response to different agents (such as inhaled and systemic corticosteroids), as well as increase the ...
Effect of inspiratory muscle training with an intermediate load on inspiratory power output in COPD
(MUNKSGAARD INT PUBL LTD, 1998)
There is very little information about the effect of inspiratory muscle training on inspiratory how (V'I) and thus an power output (PO) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In this study me aimed ...
Collapsibility of Lung Volume by Paired Inspiratiory and Expiratory CT Scans: Correlations with Lung Function and Mean Lung Density
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2010)
Rationale and Objectives: To evaluate the relationship between measurements of lung volume (LV) on inspiratory/expiratory computed tomography (CT) scans, pulmonary function tests (PFT), and CT measurements of emphysema in ...
Severe obstructive disease: Similarities and differences between smoker and non-smoker patients with COPD and/or bronchiectasis
(Elsevier Doyma SlBarcelonaEspanha, 2013)
Sex differences in mortality in patients with COPD
(EUROPEAN RESPIRATORY SOC JOURNALS LTD, 2009)
Little is known about survival and clinical prognostic factors in females with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of the present study was to determine the survival difference between males and females ...
Experimental Basis and New Insights for Cell Therapy in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
(HUMANA PRESS INCTOTOWA, 2012)
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) can be briefly described as air flow limitation and chronic dyspnea associated to an inflammatory response of the respiratory tract to noxious particles and gases. Its main ...
