Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Brief Summary   Core muscles are important for spinal stability, and postural balance. Adequate strength and endurance of core muscles are important to maintain posture and perform any functional activity efficiently. It is found that good posture is associated with breathing pattern. Indirectly, core muscle may be affected when there is altered breathing pattern and chronic altered posture in COPD. However, peripheral muscle strength is reduced in chronic airway disease, but there is scarcity of literature about core muscles strength in COPD.
