Telehealthcare for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease of irreversible airways obstruction in which patients often suffer exacerbations. Sometimes these exacerbations need hospital care: telehealthcare has the potential to reduce admission

Inferring COPD Severity from Tidal Breathing [PDF]
Objective: To develop an algorithm that can infer the severity level of a COPD patient's airflow limitation from tidal breathing data that is collected by a wearable device. Methods: Data was collected from 25 single visit adult volunteers with a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

PHT-bot: Deep-Learning based system for automatic risk stratification of COPD patients based upon signs of Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Identifying those at highest risk of deterioration would allow more effective distribution of preventative and surveillance resources. Secondary pulmonary hypertension is a manifestation of advanced COPD, which can be reliably diagnosed by the main ...

Pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]
The current paradigm for the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is that chronic airflow limitation results from an abnormal inflammatory response to inhaled particles and gases in the lung. Airspace inflammation appears to be different

Deep Learning for Detecting and Early Predicting Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease from Spirogram Time Series [PDF]
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic lung condition characterized by airflow obstruction. Current diagnostic methods primarily rely on identifying prominent features in spirometry (Volume-Flow time series) to detect COPD, but they are not adept at predicting future COPD risk based on subtle data patterns.

Accounting for data heterogeneity in integrative analysis and prediction methods: An application to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease [PDF]
Epidemiologic and genetic studies in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and many complex diseases suggest subgroup disparities (e.g., by sex). We consider this problem from the standpoint of integrative analysis where we combine information from different views (e.g., genomics, proteomics, clinical data). Existing integrative analysis methods

Features of the Course of Generalized Periodontitis in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Bronchitis [PDF]
The purpose of the work is to determine the specifics of the course of chronic disseminated periodontitis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Any changes in the water balance that go beyond the norm, in the process of evolution, first

PulmoBell: Home-based Pulmonary Rehabilitation Assistive Technology for People with COPD [PDF]
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) can be fatal and is challenging to live with due to its severe symptoms. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is one of the managements means to maintain COPD in a stable status. However, implementation of PR in the UK has been challenging due to the environmental and personal barriers faced by patients, which ...
