“…The severity of disease was measured by global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease criteria; and dyspnea was assessed by modified medical research council dyspnea scale. Anthropometric indicators of malnutrition such as body mass index (BMI) and mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) were measured to evaluate the nutritional status of COPD patients. …”

“…The secondary outcomes included in-hospital mortality, a poor neurological outcome at hospital discharge, changes in lactate levels, changes in the PaO(2):FiO(2) ratio over time and muscle weakness as assessed by the Medical Research Council (MRC) scale. RESULTS: Eighty-one subjects (NMB group: median age, 65.5 years, 30 male patients; placebo group: median age, 61.0 years, 29 male patients) were enrolled in this trial. …”
