    • Determinants of study completion and response to a 12-month behavioral physical activity intervention in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a cohort study 

      Koreny, Maria; Demeyer, Heleen; Arbillaga-Etxarri, Ane; Gimeno-Santos, Elena; Barberan-Garcia, Anael; Benages Albert, Marta; Balcells, Eva; Borrell, Eulàlia; Marín, Alicia; Rodríguez Chiaradía, Diego A.; Vall Casas, Pere; Vilaró, Jordi; Rodríguez-Roisin, Robert; Garcia-Aymerich, Judith (PLoS ONE, 2019-05-20)
      Objectives: Physical activity is key to improve the prognosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). To help to tailor future interventions we aimed to identify the baseline characteristics ...
    • Long-term efficacy and effectiveness of abehavioural and community-basedexercise intervention (Urban Training) toincrease physical activity in patients withCOPD: a randomised controlled trial 

      Arbillaga-Etxarri, Ane; Gimeno-Santos, Elena; Barberan-Garcia, Anael; Balcells, Eva; Benages Albert, Marta; Borrell, Eulàlia; Celorrio, Nuria; Delgado, Anna; Jané, Carme; Marín, Alicia; Martín-Cantera, Carlos; Monteagudo Zaragoza, Mònica; Montellà, Nuria; Muñoz, Laura; Ortega, Pilar; Rodríguez, Diego A.; Rodríguez-Roisin, Robert; Simonet, Pere; Torán-Monserrat, Pere; Torrent-Pallicer, Jaume; Vall Casas, Pere; Vilaró, Jordi; Garcia-Aymerich, Judith (European Respiratory Journal, 2018)
      There is a need to increase and maintain physical activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We assessed 12-month efficacy and effectiveness of the Urban Training intervention ...
    • Patterns of physical activity progression in patients with COPD 

      Koreny, Maria; Demeyer, Heleen; Benet, Marta; Arbillaga-Etxarri, Ane; Balcells, Eva; Barberan-Garcia, Anael; Gimeno-Santos, Elena; Hopkinson, Nicholas; de Jong, corina; Karlsson, Niklas; Louvaris, Zafeiris; Polkeyk, Michael I.; Puhan, Milo A.; Rabinovich, Roberto A.; Rodríguez-Roisin, Robert; Vall-Casas, Pere; VOGIATZIS, IOANNIS; Troosters, Thierry; Garcia Aymerich, Judith (Archivos de Bronconeumología, 2021-03)
      Introduction: Although mean physical activity in COPD patients declines by 400–500 steps/day annually, it is unknown whether the natural progression is the same for all patients. We aimed to identify ...
    • Socio-environmental correlates of physical activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) 

      Arbillaga-Etxarri, Ane; Gimeno-Santos, Elena; Barberan-Garcia, Anael; Benet, Marta; Borrell, Eulàlia; Dadvand, Payam; Foraster, Maria; Marín, Alicia; Monteagudo Zaragoza, Mònica; Rodriguez-Roisin, Robert; Vall Casas, Pere; Vilaró, Jordi; Garcia-Aymerich, Judith; Urban Training Study Group (Thorax, 2017)
      Background. Study of the causes of the reduced levels of physical activity in patients with COPD has been scarce and limited to biological factors. Aim: To assess the relationship between novel ...
    • Urban environment and physical activity and capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 

      Koreny, Maria; Arbillaga-Etxarri, Ane; Bosch de Basea, Magda; Foraster, Maria; Carsin, Anne-Elie; Cirach, Marta; Gimeno-Santos, Elena; Barberan-Garcia, Anael; Nieuwenhuijsen, Mark; Vall-Casas, Pere; Rodriguez-Roisín, Robert; Garcia-Aymerich, Judith (Environmental Research, 2022)
      Background: Physical activity and exercise capacity are key prognostic factors in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but their environmental determinants are unknown. Objectives: To test the ...
    • Validation of walking trails for the urban training of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients 

      Arbillaga-Etxarri, Ane; Torrent-Pallicer, Jaume; Gimeno-Santos, Elena; Barberan-Garcia, Anael; Delgado, Anna; Balcells, Eva; Rodríguez, Diego A.; Vilaró, Jordi; Vall Casas, Pere; Irurtia, Alfredo; Rodriguez-Roisin, Robert; Garcia-Aymerich, Judith; Urban Training Study Group (PLoS ONE, 2016-01-14)
      Purpose: Accessible interventions to train patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are needed. We designed urban trails of different intensities (low, moderate and high) in different ...
