Systematic Review of Physical Activity, Sedentary Behaviour and Sleep Among Adults Living with Chronic Respiratory Disease in Low- and Middle-Income Countries

Akila R. Jayamaha et al.

Summary: This study systematically reviewed the levels of physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep among adults living with chronic respiratory disease (CRD) in low-and middle-income countries (LMIC). The results showed that adults with CRD in LMIC have low levels of physical activity, sedentary lifestyles, and poor sleep quality.

The untapped potential of physical activity monitoring for quality assurance of field-based walking tests in clinical respiratory trials

Mark W. Orme et al.

Summary: Field-based walking tests are commonly used in clinical research and evaluation, but the quality assurance of these tests has received little attention. This article explores the potential use of activity monitors to ensure the quality of field-based walking tests, providing examples and technical considerations. Further research is needed to understand the impact of test quality on performance and rehabilitation interventions.

MiR-608 overexpression in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)

Gali Epstein Shochet et al.

Summary: IPF patients showed significant overexpression of miR-608, while levels of CdC42 and IL-6 were lower in comparison to controls. Additionally, the frequency of the rs17228616 minor allele was significantly higher in IPF patients compared to healthy individuals, suggesting a potential genetic link to the disease.

Study protocol for a randomised controlled trial assessing the impact of pulmonary rehabilitation on maximal exercise capacity for adults living with post-TB lung disease: Global RECHARGE Uganda

Winceslaus Katagira et al.

Summary: This study aims to assess the impact of a 6-week PR programme on maximal exercise capacity and other outcomes among adults in Uganda living with PTBLD. The trial is a randomised waiting-list controlled trial with blinded outcome measures, comparing PR versus usual care for patients with PTBLD.
