Dyspnea-induced Limitation (DYSLIM), a new self-administered concise questionnaire to evaluate dyspnea-related activity limitation in chronic respiratory diseases. Respir Med 2023; 217:107309. [PMID: 37394196 DOI: 10.1016/j.rmed.2023.107309] [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: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 05/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Few questionnaires are available for routine assessment of dyspnea. The study aimed to design a self-administered questionnaire assessing the impact of chronic dyspnea on daily activities, named DYSLIM (Dyspnea-induced Limitation). METHODS The development followed 4 steps: 1: selection of relevant activities and related questions (focus groups); 2: clinical study: internal and concurrent validity vs. modified Medical Research Council (mMRC), Baseline Dyspnea Index (BDI) and Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ); 3: item reduction; 4: responsiveness. Eighteen activities (from eating to climbing stairs) were considered with 5 modalities for each: doing the task slowly, taking breaks, seeking assistance, changing habits, and activity avoidance. Each modality was graded from 5 (never) to 1 (very often). Validation study included 194 patients: COPD (FEV1 ≥ 50% pred: n = 40; FEV1 < 50% pred: n = 65); cystic fibrosis (n = 30), interstitial lung disease (n = 30), pulmonary hypertension (n = 29). Responsiveness was evaluated by post-pulmonary rehabilitation data in 52 COPD patients. RESULTS Acceptability was high and short term (7 days) reproducibility was satisfactory (Kappa mostly above 0.7). Concurrent validity was high vs. mMRC (Spearman correlation coefficient, r = 0.71), BDI (r = - 0.75) and SGRQ (r = - 0.79). The reduced questionnaire with 8 activities (from cleaning to climbing stairs) and 3 modalities (slowly, seeking help, changing habits) showed a comparable validity and was chosen as the final short version. Effect size of rehabilitation was good for both the full (0.57) and short (0.51) versions. A significant correlation was also found between changes of SGRQ and DYSLIM post rehabilitation: r = - 0.68 and r = - 0.60 for full and reduced questionnaires, respectively. CONCLUSION The DYSLIM questionnaire appears promising for the evaluation of dyspnea-induced limitations in chronic respiratory diseases and seems suitable for use in various contexts.

Nutritional Risk and Sarcopenia Features in Patients with Crohn's Disease: Relation to Body Composition, Physical Performance, Nutritional Questionnaires and Biomarkers. Nutrients 2023; 15:3615.

Abstract
Patients with Crohn's disease (CD) face malnutrition risk, which, combined with inflammation, can lead to sarcopenia, associated with a worse prognosis. The purpose of the present study was to assess malnutrition and sarcopenia in patients with CD. Fifty-three patients (26 women) participated (38.1 ± 10.9 years, 79% in remission). Body composition, physical performance, nutritional questionnaires, and biomarkers were performed. Malnutrition was screened with the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) and the Malnutrition Inflammation Risk Tool (MIRT) and was assessed with the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) tool using etiologic along with three different phenotypic criteria: low Body Mass Index (BMI), low Calf Circumference (CC), and low Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI). To find cases and evaluate sarcopenia, the Sarcopenia Questionnaire (SARC-F) and European Working Group on Sarcopenia2 (EWGSOP2) criteria were used. Malnutrition rates were 11.3% (n = 6), 7.5% (n = 4), and 5.6% (n = 3) based on low FFMI, CC, and BMI, correspondingly. Four (7%) patients had low Hand-Grip Strength (HGS), n = 8 (14.8%) had low Appendicular Lean Mass (ALM), and n = 3 (5.6%) had low gait speed. No-one had sarcopenia. A high albumin and triceps skinfold pattern, identified by principal component analysis, was related to reduced C-Reactive Protein (CRP) levels (B = -0.180, SE = 0.085, p = 0.045). In conclusion, based on the studied anthropometric, nutritional, and functional variables, CD patients were not diagnosed with sarcopenia in the present study. Body composition patterns were related to the inflammatory burden, underlying the interplay of inflammation and malnutrition, even in remission states. Further studies on older populations and during disease exacerbation are necessary to explore the potential link between CD, inflammation, and sarcopenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients experience a progressive limitation of their functionality accompanying their clinical evolution. Concretely, severe COPD patients usually require the figure of a caregiver. Caregiver burden has yet to be explored in other similar chronic diseases. The objective is to propose a cutoff point in different functional impairment aspects, to predict the presence of caregiver burden. METHODS Severe COPD patients were divided into two groups according to the caregiver burden, measured with the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). The patients were assessed with the London Chest Activity of Daily Living (LCADL) scale, the Functional Independence Measure (FIM), and the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0). RESULTS 70 COPD patients and their caregivers were included in this cross-sectional study. The ROC curve indicated a cutoff point of 19 in the LCADL scale (AUC = 0.722). Dependence in daily life activities had a cutoff point of 123 in the FIM (AUC = 0.776). Social participation in activities of daily living had a cutoff point of 37 in the WHODAS 2.0 (AUC = 0.739). CONCLUSION Dyspnea related to functional status, dependence in daily life activities, and social participation in activities of daily living of severe COPD patients can predict caretaker burden.

Abstract
PURPOSE Evidence regarding everyday life activities in people living with COPD is limited. Such evidence can improve our understanding when designing interventions for pulmonary rehabilitation that aim at increasing or maintaining participation in these activities. The aim of this study was to describe how people living with COPD experience and manage everyday life activities. MATERIALS AND METHODS The sample comprised four males and four females with an age ranging from 65-87 years. Participants were interviewed in their own homes regarding experiences of performing and managing everyday life activities. Data were transcribed verbatim and analysed using content analysis. RESULTS Findings from this study comprised the theme "Juggling to manage everyday life activities with COPD" and three categories representing the elements of this theme: (1) consequences of COPD symptoms, (2) adjustment of activities, and (3) contextual aspects. CONCLUSION This study found the participants with COPD juggling the management of everyday life activities. The juggle generated a manageable daily life, which came at the expense of making deliberate choices and prioritizing everyday life activities that were necessary for participation in valued and engaging activities in order to maintain health and well-being.Implications for RehabilitationPeople living with COPD experience a complex juggling between the consequences of COPD symptoms and contextual aspects when managing everyday life activities.The participants had largely accepted their disease and adjusted to their situation.The disease was still described as frustrating and generated less focus on making deliberate choices and prioritizing everyday life activities that are necessary for participation in valued and engaging activities.Health professionals need to support people living with COPD in making deliberate choices in order to continue participating in valued and engaging everyday life activities as they affect health and well-being.Pulmonary rehabilitation should focus more on supporting participation in social relations and on using everyday technologies.

Abstract
Purpose There have been calls for more knowledge of activities of daily living (ADL) performance in order to address interventions in pulmonary rehabilitation effectively. Everyday technology (ET) has become an integrated dimension of ADL, impacting the ways in which ADL is performed. To improve everyday functioning and quality of life, the use of ADL and ET use needs to be evaluated and addressed effectively in interventions. Therefore, the aim of this study was twofold: 1) to explore the quality of ADL performance, and 2) to investigate the relationship between observation and self-reported ADL performance and ability to use everyday technologies in people living with COPD. Methods This cross-sectional study involved 84 participants aged 46–87 years. Participants were recruited through healthcare centres in the Northern Region of Denmark using a convenience sampling procedure. Data were collected using standardized assessments that investigated different ADL perspectives: self-reported ADL tasks and ET use, observed motor and process ability, and need for assistance. Data were analysed and presented using descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Results The most affected ADL tasks were mobility within or outside the home, lower dressing, bathing, pedicuring, cooking, shopping, cleaning and washing clothes. New insights into the quality of ADL performance in people living with COPD were presented in terms of detailed ADL motor skills and ADL process skills, as well as the predicted need for support to function in the community. Moreover, new insights into the relationship between observation and self-reported ADL performance (r=0.546, p<0.01; r=0.297, p<0.01) and between ADL performance and self-perceived ability to use ET (r=0.524, p<0.01; r=0.273, p<0.05; r=0.044, p=0.692) were presented. Conclusion Overall, the knowledge from the present study is valuable for focusing interventions that address challenging ADL performance and ET use through relevant and realistic activities. The ability to use ET is important to evaluate and target pulmonary rehabilitation.
