Analysis of Communal Molecular Mechanism Between Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Osteoporosis
20-03-2023CONCLUSION: Two identical DEmiRNAs (miR-23a-5p, miR-194-3p) exist in the peripheral blood of COPD and OP patients, which are important biomarkers for COPD patients with OP and may represent novel targets for diagnosis and treatment of COPD patients with OP.

Heart rate and oxygen uptake kinetics obtained from continuous measurements with wearable devices during outdoor walks of patients with COPD
20-03-2023CONCLUSION: We envision that the presented approach could improve telemonitoring applications of patients with COPD by providing regular, unsupervised assessments of HR kinetics during daily-life routines. This could allow to early identify a decline in the patients' dynamic physiological functioning, physical fitness and/or health status.

Reassessment of the Need for Asthmatic Patients for Biologic Treatment in a Tertiary Care Hospital
20-03-2023CONCLUSION: Significant number of severe uncontrolled asthmatic patients were shown to be associated with at least one comorbid condition that might be interfering with patients' improvement in asthmatic symptoms. By taking appropriate measures toward management and controlling of those comorbid conditions and also educating patients about technique to use inhalers might show notable improvement in asthmatic patients' condition.
