Introducing a new prognostic instrument for long-term mortality prediction in COPD patients: the CADOT index

Biomedical Papers, 2021
Objectives. The BODE (BMI, Obstruction - FEV1, Dyspnoea - mMRC, Exercise - 6-MWT) and the ADO (Age, Dyspnoea - mMRC, Obstruction - FEV1) indices are widely used prognosis assessment tools for long-term mortality prediction in COPD patients but subject to

Airway bacterial and fungal microbiome in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Medicine in Microecology, 2021
Little is known about airway mycobiome, and its relationship with bacterial microbiome in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Here we report the first simultaneous characterization of sputum bacterial and fungal microbiome in 84 stable COPD and

Respiratory muscle dysfunction in acute and chronic respiratory failure: how to diagnose and how to treat? [PDF]

Eur Respir Rev
Assessing and treating respiratory muscle dysfunction is crucial for patients with both acute and chronic respiratory failure. Respiratory muscle dysfunction can contribute to the onset of respiratory failure and may also worsen due to interventions ...

Biomarker-Based Classification of Patients With Acute Respiratory Failure Into Inflammatory Subphenotypes: A Single-Center Exploratory Study

Critical Care Explorations, 2021
OBJECTIVES:. Hyper- and hypoinflammatory subphenotypes discovered in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome predict clinical outcomes and therapeutic responses. These subphenotypes may be important in broader critically ill patient populations

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and respiratory failure

Geriatric Care, 2023
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a current problem for elderly patients due to diffusion, mortality, and other negative outcomes. The most complex management aspects consist of the presence of frailty, which increases the risk of complications ...

Predictive significance of the six-minute walk distance for long-term survival in chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure [PDF]

, 2007
Background: The 6-min walk distance ( 6-MWD) is a global marker of functional capacity and prognosis in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD), but less explored in other chronic respiratory diseases.
