Association of Airway Mucus Plugs and Physical Activity, Exercise Tolerance, Sarcopenia, and Frailty in Patients With COPD and Pre-COPD.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE

Airway mucus plugs on computed tomography (CT) are an imaging biomarker of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) associated with airflow limitation, respiratory symptoms, and poor prognosis. However, clinical phenotypes relevant to mucus plugs, including sarcopenia and frailty, are...

Dynapenia and Sarcopenia as Risk Factors for Mortality in Interstitial Lung Disease.

Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Patients often exhibit impaired nutritional status and alterations in body composition, such as dynapenia and sarcopenia, which correlate with poor pulmonary function, reduced exercise tolerance and diminished quality...
