TL;DR: In this article, discharge coordinator intervention was shown to reduce the risk of COPD hospitalization in patients with COPD exacerbation by educational and self-management sessions with patients and caregivers and liaison with health and social care providers in patient home environment.

Mini nutritional assessment, body composition, and hospitalisations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
TL;DR: In this article, the associations between the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) questionnaire, body composition, and rehospitalisation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) were investigated.

TL;DR: Elevated NT-proBNP levels and very severe COPD were independently associated with unfavorable overall survival and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide levels were independent predictors of long-term survival.

Echocardiographic predictors of outcome in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Ivan Stankovic,Robert Marčun,Aleksandra Janicijevic,Jerneja Farkas,Sasa Kadivec,Ivan Ilic,Aleksandar N. Neskovic,Mitja Lainscak +7 more
TL;DR: This work aimed to assess the relationship between echocardiographic characteristics and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and found no significant relationship between these characteristics and death.
