This study investigated the effects of different exercise interventions on cardiopulmonary function in male tobacco-dependent college students. Forty-five male tobacco-dependent college students were recruited as the tobacco-dependent (TB) group, and 45 non-tobacco-dependent college students were recruited as the control group. The TB group was randomly assigned to three subgroups: non-exercise (NE), high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT).

Patient decision aids can facilitate patient participation in pulmonary rehabilitation decisions by providing information and incorporating patient values. The aim of this study was to develop a pulmonary rehabilitation decision aid for patients with COPD.

- Tele-pulmonary rehabilitation is gaining popularity but cannot fully replace in-person care for chronic conditions like COPD; improving patient adherence to rehabilitation is key.
- This study tested a combination of in-person and virtual rehab services, supported by a Patient Decision Aid, to enhance older COPD patients' engagement and outcomes in pulmonary rehabilitation.
- Results showed significant improvements in adherence and several decision-making metrics in the group using the decision aid, although some measures of quality of life did not show marked differences between the two groups.
Background: Telehealth and online health information provide patients with increased access to healthcare services and health information in chronic disease management of older patients with chronic diseases, addressing the challenge of inadequate health resources and promoting active and informed participation of older patients in chronic disease management. There are few qualitative studies on the application of telehealth and online health information to chronic disease management in older patients. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is one of the most common chronic diseases in older adults.

Design: A qualitative study using single, semi-structured interviews, and thematic analysis.
Setting: Face-to-face interviews were conducted in the Jiangnan University, in hospital and in patients' homes.
Background: The application of telemedicine in home pulmonary rehabilitation interventions for the management of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has achieved promising results.
Objective: This study aimed to develop a WeChat official account (Pulmonary Internet Explorer Rehabilitation [PeR]) based on social media. It further evaluated the effect of PeR on the quality of life, symptoms, and exercise self-efficacy of patients with COPD.
