Article Abstract
The six minute walk test (6MWT) has a prognostic role in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with desaturation during the 6MWT in patients with COPD. This study utilized data from the prospective KOrea COPD Subgroup Study (KOCOSS) cohort. The results of the 6MWT performed at enrollment were analyzed in this study. A total of 1789 participants performed the 6MWT. Among them, 185 (10.3%) experienced desaturation during 6MWT. Old age, ex-smoker, low forced expiratory volume in one second (%), and high COPD assessment test score were significantly associated with exertional desaturation.

Alterations in skeletal muscle morphology and composition are critical factors in cerebral palsy (CP), including changes in passive stiffness and in belly and fascicle lengths. In this study, we quantified the relative contributions of muscle and tendon to passive stiffness across the ankle range of motion in individuals with CP and typically developing (TD) peers. We also investigated morphological factors underlying increased muscle stiffness.

The widespread use of social media has led to growing concerns about its impact on mental health. As digital dependency rises, the Joy of Missing Out (JOMO) has emerged as a potential means to help individuals find satisfaction in offline activities and reduce social media addiction. This study examines the serial mediating role of loneliness and psychological distress in the relationship between JOMO and social media addiction while also validating the JOMO scale's psychometric properties.
