| Sumario: | Skeletal muscle dysfunction, characterized by impaired strength and/or endurance properties of muscles, is a relevant systemic manifestation in patients with chronic cardiac and respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Muscle dysfunction negatively affects exercise capacity in the patients, thus diminishing their quality of life. |
