Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disease characterized by airway obstruction and inflammation. Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) lung infections are common in COPD, promoting frequent exacerbations and accelerated lung function decline. The relationship with immune responses and NTHi are poorly understood.

Background: Exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are known to increase the risk of cardiovascular (CV) events and mortality. However, the temporal trend of this risk has not fully elucidated. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to quantify the risk of CV events after COPD exacerbations over different time periods.

Tanimilast is an inhaled phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor currently in phase III clinical development for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma. This trial aimed to characterize the pharmacokinetics, mass balance, and metabolite profiling of tanimilast. Eight healthy male volunteers received a single dose of nonradiolabeled tanimilast via powder inhaler (Chiesi NEXThaler [3200 μg]), followed by a concomitant intravenous infusion of a microtracer ([C]-tanimilast: 18.

Background: An estimated 10-30% of people with COVID-19 experience debilitating long-term symptoms or long covid. Underlying health conditions associated with chronic inflammation may increase the risk of long covid.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine whether long covid risk was altered by pre-existing asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults.
Preliminary test a two stage, self-determination theory (SDT) and participation-based physical activity and peer support intervention for individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). In Stage 1, four focus groups were conducted to provide insights about individuals' needs and experiences with physical activity. In Stage 2, four individuals with COPD aged 76-90 years (50% female) participated in an eight-week online physical activity and peer support intervention.
