“…A total of 17 studies explored correlates (k = 13) [ 19 , 39 , 40 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 49 , 51 , 52 , 53 ] or determinants (k = 6) [ 22 , 41 , 43 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 50 ] of physical activity or sedentary behaviour; most (82%) were of cross-sectional design ( Table 2 ). Of the 17 studies, 10 (59%) assessed physical activity or sedentary behaviour with pedometers or accelerometer devices ( Table 2 ).…”

“…The clinical correlates and determinants of physical activity were found to be pulmonary function (r = 0.34 to 0.56; r 2 = 0.06), exercise capacity (r = 0.38 to 0.61; r 2 = 0.26), BMI (r 2 = −0.12 to −0.29), dyspnoea (r = −0.39 to −0.30; r 2 = 0.09 to 0.17), psychological health (r = −0.32 to 0.28), and asthma control (r = −0.46 to −0.20; r 2 = 0.21) ( Table 2 ). In addition, self-perceived health, self-reported functional limitation, and sociodemographic variables (e.g., age, gender, race, income, education) were also important determinants of physical activity in multivariate analyses that explained up to 51% of physical activity volume [ 43 , 47 , 50 ] ( Table 2 ).…”

“…However, associations with physical activity were found for high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (r 2 = 0.15) [ 22 , 48 ] and fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNo) (r = −0.37, p = 0.005) [ 53 ]. Exacerbations [ 43 ], medication use [ 53 ] and food intake [ 43 ] were investigated in only one study each; of those, only medication use was not correlated with physical activity.…”

Key Considerations When Addressing Physical Inactivity and Sedentary Behaviour in People with Asthma

People with asthma tend to be less physically active and more sedentary than people without asthma. This narrative review aimed to present key considerations when addressing physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour in people with asthma by identifying barriers and facilitators, determinants and correlates, and intervention approaches. Using a search strategy, electronic databases were searched for relevant studies. Data extracted from studies were qualitatively synthesised. A total of 26 studies were included in the review. Six studies reported asthma symptoms as a barrier to physical activity, while four studies reported having a supportive network as a physical activity facilitator. Across studies, physical activity correlates/determinants were pulmonary function, exercise capacity, body mass index, dyspnoea, psychological health, and asthma control. Interventions that effectively improved physical activity in the short term were a step-based prescription programme, a weight loss programme incorporating aerobic and resistance training, and a weight loss lifestyle intervention, while a high-intensity interval training pulmonary rehabilitation program was effective in the long term. The collective findings suggest that a personalised physical activity programme incorporating different strategies is needed. There was minimal evidence to provide recommendations to optimise sedentary behaviour in asthma, and more research is needed on the topic.

“…It has been suggested that additives in alcoholic drinks cause bronchoconstriction and that pure ethanol has a salutary effect on asthma (Cuddy & Li, 2001). The fear of inducing an episode of breathlessness inhibits many asthmatics from taking part in PA (Good, Jagroop, & Dogra, 2017). One review has demonstrated links between physical inactivity, obesity and asthma which are purportedly mediated by increased systemic inflammation (Ten Hacken, 2009).…”

We investigated physical activity (PA) correlates among middle-aged and older adults (aged ≥50 years) with hazardous drinking patterns in six low- and middle-income countries. Cross-sectional data were analyzed from the World Health Organization's Study on Global Ageing and Adult Health. Hazardous drinking was defined as consuming >7 (females) or >14 (males) standard drinks per week. Participants were dichotomized into low (i.e., not meeting 150 min of moderate PA/week) and moderate-high physically active groups. Associations between PA and a range of correlates were examined using multivariable logistic regressions. The prevalence of low PA in 1,835 hazardous drinkers (60.5 ± 13.1 years; 87.9% males) was 16.2% (95% confidence interval [13.9%, 18.9%]). Older age, living in an urban setting, being unemployed, depression, underweight, obesity, asthma, visual impairment, poor self-rated health, and higher levels of disability were identified as significant PA correlates. The current data provide important guidance for future interventions to assist older hazardous drinkers to engage in regular PA.

“…Selection of covariates were based on previous identification of variables related with PA in the general population [46][47][48]. Unfavorable consumptions habits, like tobacco and alcohol, are important barriers to a sustainable development that need to be considered.…”

Association between Physical Activity and Comorbidities in Spanish People with Asthma-COPD Overlap

et al. 2021

Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are important conditions which often coexist. Higher rates of comorbidities among people with asthma-COPD overlap (ACO) may complicate clinical management. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of 30 different comorbidities and to analyze associations between these comorbidities and physical activity (PA) in Spanish people with ACO. Cross-sectional data from the Spanish National Health Survey 2017 were analyzed. A total of 198 Spanish people with ACO aged 15–69 years (60.6% women) were included in this study. PA was measured with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) short form. Diagnosis of chronic conditions were self-reported. Associations between PA and comorbidities were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression models. The most prevalent comorbidities were chronic allergy (58.1%), chronic lumbar pain (42.4%), chronic cervical pain (38.4%), hypertension (33.3%) and arthrosis (31.8%). A PA level lower than 600 MET·min/week was significantly associated with urinary incontinence (OR = 3.499, 95% CI = 1.369–8.944) and osteoporosis (OR = 3.056, 95% CI = 1.094–8.538) in the final adjusted model. Therefore, the potential influence of PA on reducing the risk of these conditions among people with ACO should be considered, not only because of the health benefits, but also because PA can contribute to a more sustainable world.
