Is six-minute walking distance improvement after pulmonary rehabilitation associated with baseline lung function in complex COPD patients : a retrospective study?
Our study shows that in stable moderate-to-severe complex COPD inpatients, baseline lung function may predict the response to PR in terms of 6 MWT. We also found that complex COPD patients with poor lung function get more benefit from PR.
Our results indicate that during the early phase of STZ-induced T1D, the 14-3-3 proteins are affected in an isoform- and tissue-specific way.
