Cognitive and psychological outcomes of exercise in a 1-year follow-up study of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Abstract
This study evaluated outcomes of self-directed exercise activity on cognitive functioning and psychological well-being among 28 adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Participants had completed an intensive 10-week program of exercise training and were given an exercise prescription to follow. One year later, participants completed comprehensive assessments of physical, cognitive, and psychological functioning. At follow-up, 39% (n=11) had continued with a regular program of moderate intensity exercise. Repeated measures analysis of variance indicated that exercise adherent participants maintained gains they had achieved in the initial exercise intervention, but nonexercise participants experienced declines in functional capacity, cognitive performance, and psychological well-being. Continued exercise among patients with COPD is associated with maintenance of physical, cognitive, and psychological functioning.

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.
