Abstract

Chest wall volumes and breathing patterns of 13 male COPD patients were evaluated at rest and during inspiratory loaded breathing (ILB). The sternocleidomastoid (SMM) and abdominal muscle activity was also evaluated. The main compartment responsible for the tidal volume at rest and during ILB was the abdomen. During ILB patients exhibited, in addition to increases in the ratio of inspiratory time to total time of the respiratory cycle and minute ventilation, increases (p<0.05) in the chest wall tidal volume by an increase in abdomen tidal volume as a result of improvement of end chest wall inspiratory volume without changing on end chest wall expiratory volume. The SMM and abdominal muscle activity increased 63.84% and 1.94% during ILB. Overall, to overcome the load imposed by ILB, COPD patients improve the tidal volume by changing the inspiratory chest wall volume without modifying the predominant mobility of the abdomen at rest and without affecting the end chest wall expiratory volume.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Forced abdominal expiration may be a normal physiological adaptation in patients with COPD and pulmonary hyperinflation, but is typically dysfunctional in the absence of these conditions.

    “This may be a normal physiological adaptation in patients with COPD and pulmonary hyperinflation, but is typically dysfunctional in the absence of these conditions [63].”

    From Dysfunctional breathing: a review of the literature and proposal for classification (2016) · cites this paper as [63]

    The Introduction (page unavailable) reports enhanced abdominal-muscle use in patients with COPD and describes some changes as adaptations. It does not identify forced abdominal expiration as a normal adaptation; instead, it says most breathing abnormalities suggest respiratory-muscle malfunction. The paper also does not establish that forced abdominal expiration is typically dysfunctional in people without COPD or hyperinflation. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
