Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1The Association Between Respiratory Functions, Pain Tolerance and Body Awareness in Obstructive Lung Diseases(Elsevier Science Inc, 2025) Vardar-Yagli, Naciye; Saglam, Melda; Firat, Merve; Inal-Ince, Deniz; Calik-Kutukcu, Ebru; Kilic, Kubra; Coplu, LutfiPurpose: There are only a limited number of studies in the literature evaluating body awareness, pain perception, and the relationship between clinical parameters and respiratory functions in patients with obstructive lung disease (OLD) and compared with healthy individuals. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate respiratory functions, pain tolerance, and body awareness in patients with OLD and compare these findings with those of healthy individuals. Methods: The study included 33 patients and 30 healthy individuals. The respiratory function (spirometer), respiratory muscle strength (mouth pressure device), endurance (threshold loading device), pain level and tolerance (short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire and algometer), posture, and body awareness (Body Awareness Questionnaire-BAQ) were evaluated. Results: The pain threshold and tolerance of the biceps, triceps, trapezius, and quadriceps muscles were significantly lower and BAQ scores were higher in patients with OLD compared with healthy individuals (p < .05). There was a significant relationship between FEV1 (%) and pain tolerance of the triceps (r = 0.371, p = .047) and gastrocnemius muscles (r = 0.419, p = .024); FVC (%) and pain threshold of the gastrocnemius (r = 0.413, p = .023), triceps muscles (r = 0.394, p = .034), and pain tolerance of the gastrocnemius muscle (r = 0.549, p = .002). Conclusions: Patients with OLD have a marked increase in pain perception and body awareness levels and a decrease in pain threshold and tolerance compared with healthy controls. Future studies should assess the effectiveness of pain management interventions as a part of pulmonary rehabilitation for patients with chronic respiratory diseases. Clinical Implications: Pain management is important for planning pulmonary rehabilitation programmes. (c) 2024 American Society for Pain Management Nursing. Published by Elsevier Inc.

The aim of this study was to test energy expenditure and the degree of the glucose-lowering effect of different exercise modalities. Design Cross-sectional study Participants This study included 44 patients {35 women and nine men, mean age 51 [standard deviation (SD) 5] years} with T2DM [mean HbA1c 7% (SD 1%)]. Main outcome measures Standardised exercise tests for walking, running and cycling were performed using the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT), and symptom-limited maximal cycle exercise test, respectively. Energy expenditure was assessed with a multisensory accelerometer. Change in capillary glucose levels ( increment glucose) was measured before and after each exercise modality. Results increment Glucose was lower in the 6MWT {median 14 [interquartile range (IQR) 22] mg/dl} than in the ISWT [median 18 (IQR 23) mg/ dl; median difference 7 mg/dl, 95% confidence interval (CI) of the difference 3-11] and the cycle test [median 18 (IQR 24) mg/dl; median difference 7 mg/dl, 95% CI 0-16]. Energy expenditure was lower during the 6MWT [median 41 (IQR 18) Kcal] compared with the ISWT [median 51 (IQR 23) Kcal; median difference 11 Kcal, 95% CI 6-16] and the cycle test [median 44 (IQR 25) Kcal; median difference 6 Kcal, 95% CI 0-13]. Conclusions Energy expenditure and corresponding glucose-lowering effect during exercise in patients with T2DM can be predicted from the results of an exercise test. The type of exercise is related to the risk of hypoglycaemia. Walking is associated with the lowest energy expenditure and risk of hypoglycaemia, while cycling and running/jogging cause higher energy expenditure and greater reductions in glucose in patients with T2DM. Contribution of the paper center dot Energy expenditure and risk of hypoglycaemia during exercise can be predicted by exercise tests. center dot The intensity and type of exercise are related to the risk of hypoglycaemia. center dot The change in glucose level was greater for running and cycling than for walking.

Aims This study aimed to compare activities of daily living (ADL), exercise capacity, balance, and cognition in COPD patients with and without frailty. Methods Twenty frail and 28 non-frail COPD patients aged 55 years and over were included. Frailty was determined according to Fried et al. Dyspnea was evaluated using the modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale. Respiratory and peripheral muscle strength were measured. Functional capacity was assessed using a 6-min walk test (6MWT); ADL performance was evaluated using the Glittre ADL test. The balance was evaluated using the functional reach test (FRT). Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Evaluation (MoCA) Test. Quality of life was measured using the COPD Assessment Test (CAT). Results The mMRC and CAT scores were higher in the frail patients as compared with the non-frail patients (p < 0.05). The maximal inspiratory pressure, handgrip strength, 6MWT distance, and FRT score were lower in the frail patients as compared with the non-frail patients (p < 0.05). The duration for the Glittre ADL test was longer in the frail patients than the non-frail patients (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between MoCA scores between groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions Frail COPD patients have increased dyspnea perception, impaired muscle strength, and functional capacity, ADL performance, balance, and quality of life. Whether pulmonary rehabilitation programs for patients with frail COPD need to be adapted with new rehabilitation strategies, including components of frailty, needs further investigation.Conference Object A Comparison of Arm Exercise Capacity and Activities of Daily Living Between Well-Controlled Asthma Patients With and Without Severe Fatigue During Daily Life(European Respiratory Soc Journals Ltd, 2021) Karaduz, Beyza Nur; Calik-Kutukcu, Ebru; Cakmak, Aslihan; Ince, Deniz Inal; Vardar-Yagli, Naciye; Saglam, Melda; Karakaya, Gul[No Abstract Available]
