Diagnostics (Basel) 2024; 14:1489. [PMID: 39061625 PMCID: PMC11276227 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14141489] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Many pulmonary and extrapulmonary factors may impair balance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but the determinants of this impairment are still debated. The primary aim was to compare both balance-related and independent variables that may affect balance with healthy subjects. The secondary aim was to investigate the potential determinants of balance in patients with COPD. Methods: This comparative study recruited 23 patients with COPD and 23 age- and comorbidity-matched healthy subjects. Participants were assessed regarding demographic and clinical data, "Postural Stability Test" (PST), "Limits of Stability Test" (LOST), "Clinical Test of Sensory Integration of Balance" (CTSIB), pulmonary function, respiratory and peripheral muscle strength, functional capacity, and cognitive function. Results: There were significant differences in all outcome measures assessing balance, pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, peripheral muscle strength, and functional capacity, but not cognitive function, in the COPD group compared to the healthy group (p < 0.05). The PST had a significant and strong correlation with maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) (r = -0.630, p = 0.001) and a significant and moderate correlation with m. quadriceps strength and 6 min walk test (6MWT) distance (r = -0.472, p = 0.023; r = -0.496, p = 0.016; respectively). MIP, m. quadriceps strength, and 6MWT distance were independent predictors to explain the PST with an R2 = 0.336 (p = 0.004). Conclusions: The present study revealed that balance is impaired in adults with COPD, even if compared with age- and comorbidity-matched healthy subjects. Assessing and improving balance and its determinants, inspiratory and peripheral muscle strength, and functional capacity may be important for fall prevention and disease management in patients with COPD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION COPD has become more prevalent among women, revealing a specific feminine phenotype. Women experience greater dyspnea and a more impaired quality of life. The main objective of this study was to assess the effect of gender on dyspnea during a pulmonary rehabilitation program (PRP). METHODS Retrospective study including COPD patients having participated in PRPs. The following data were analyzed according to gender before and after a PRP: dyspnea, quality of life, anxiety and depression, exercise capacity, muscle function (quadriceps and inspiratory muscles). RESULTS More than 500 patients (252 men and 252 women) were included. We did not find a significant effect of gender on the evolution of dyspnea, anxiety or depressive disorders, exercise capacity, inspiratory muscle strength, or overall quality of life score. That said, we found a possible effect on the sub-scores of the quality of life questionnaire, and regarding quadriceps strength. All criteria improved during the program in both groups. CONCLUSIONS During a PRP, gender does not impact the evolution of dyspnea. While women may nonetheless benefit to a greater extent in terms of quality of life sub-scores (impact, activities, symptoms) and quadriceps strength, these results still require confirmation.

[PMID: 38281431 DOI: 10.1016/j.gaitpost.2023.12.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Falls are a major health problem. The relationship between dynamic balance related to falls and respiratory muscle strength related to sarcopenia and frailty is poorly understood. RESEARCH QUESTION How do dynamic balance measures, such as maximal single step length test (MSL) and maximal double step length test (MDST), and respiratory muscle strength measures, such as maximal inspiratory (PImax) and maximal expiratory (PEmax), related to the requirement for long-term care or support in older people who live in the community? METHODS This was a cross-sectional study of 39 older people (17 men, 22 women) aged ≥ 65 years community-dwelling who were certified as requiring long-term care or support under the Japanese system. The participants' PImax, PEmax, MSL, and MDST results were recorded. The measurement data were evaluated using Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis. RESULTS MDST showed a positive correlation with PImax (r = 0.430, p = 0.006) but no correlation with PEmax. MSL showed no correlation with PImax or PEmax. A positive correlation was found between MDST and MSL (r = 0.851, p < 0.001), and multiple regression analysis with MDST as the dependent variable and PImax and MST as independent variables showed significant differences for MSL (p < 0.001) and PImax (p = 0.027). SIGNIFICANCE In older people requiring long-term care or support, MDST had a greater association with inspiratory muscle strength compared with MSL. These results suggest the importance of inspiratory muscle strength training and MDST assessment in the prevention of falls in older people requiring long-term care or support.

Abstract
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is often accompanied by impaired cognitive and physical function. However, the role of cognitive function on motor control and purposeful movement is not well studied. The aim of the review was to determine the impact of cognition on physical performance in COPD. Methods: Scoping review methods were performed including searches of the databases: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Systematic Reviews, Cochrane (CENTRAL), APA PsycINFO, and CINAHL. Two reviewers independently assessed articles for inclusion, data abstraction, and quality assessment. Results: Of 11,252 identified articles, 44 met the inclusion criteria. The review included 5743 individuals with COPD (68% male) with the forced expiratory volume in one second range of 24-69% predicted. Cognitive scores correlated with strength, balance, and hand dexterity, while 6-min walk distance (n = 9) was usually similar among COPD patients with and without cognitive impairment. In 2 reports, regression analyses showed that delayed recall and the trail making test were associated with balance and handgrip strength, respectively. Dual task studies (n = 5) reported impaired balance or gait in COPD patients compared to healthy adults. Cognitive or physical Interventions (n = 20) showed variable improvements in cognition and exercise capacity. Conclusions: Cognition in COPD appears to be more related to balance, hand, and dual task function, than exercise capacity.

Abstract
Purpose: Impairment of postural control is common in people with COPD. However, the precise characteristics of this alteration are not clearly known. The "Systems Framework for Postural Control" which define postural control sub-components, represents an interesting tool to explore this field. The main aim of this review was to identify which postural control sub-components are impaired in people with COPD and to summarise characteristics for each sub-component. A secondary aim was to precise the relation between postural control and activities of daily living (ADL).Materials and methods: A scoping review was conducted, according to the JBI methodology. Medline, Cochrane Library, Scielo, Google Scholar, OpenGrey, and HAL were searched from inception to May 2022. The search was performed in English and French.Results: Eighty-nine articles were included. There was evidence of a potential impairment for most of the postural control sub-components. Characteristics of every sub-component alteration were heterogeneous. Reduced postural control could be associated with difficulties in ADL.Conclusions: People with COPD may have impairment in a wide range of postural control sub-components. Further research is needed to clarify if a common pattern of modification exits for this alteration and to precise the link with ADL.Implications for rehabilitationImpairment of postural control is a common extra-respiratory manifestation in people with COPD and so clinicians must include it in their clinical reasoning.Numerous postural control sub-components could be altered in people with COPD, suggesting that postural control assessment must be holistic.This scoping review shows that characteristics of postural control impairment are varied and that there may be no common pattern at the COPD population level.The relationship between impaired postural control and activities of daily living remains unclear, but clinicians should be alert to potential negative interactions between these two areas.
