The Clinical Characteristic and Prognostic Value of Frailty in Elderly COPD Patients
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Frailty, as one of the extrapulmonary comorbidities of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), is highly prevalent in COPD patients. The primary objective of this research was to assess how frailty influences subsequent exacerbation and augments the predictive capacity of dyspnoea or the exacerbation history ...

Improvements With Tiotropium Maintenance Therapy in COPD Patients Without Dyspnea
In a post hoc analysis of the Tie‐COPD trial, including 305 patients with mild‐to‐moderate COPD and no dyspnea (mMRC 0), 2 years of tiotropium improved lung function, lowered the annual exacerbation rate, and delayed the first clinically important deterioration, indicating benefit beyond symptom relief in a group not currently offered maintenance ...

Proper myelin formation is crucial for normal neural circuit function, while myelin deficiency can lead to neural circuit dysfunction and cognitive decline, notably in Alzheimer's disease and other central nervous system demyelinating disorders. This review summarizes central myelin's structure and function, demyelination biomarkers and pathological ...

Dualsteric and dual‐acting modulation of muscarinic receptors by antagonist KH‐5
Abstract Background and purpose Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are key therapeutic targets, and ligands engaging both orthosteric and allosteric sites may offer improved selectivity and efficacy. Here, we investigated whether the muscarinic antagonist KH‐5 acts as a dualsteric antagonist and defined its mode of interaction with muscarinic receptors.
