Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study parameter is to explore if there is an association between the<br /><br>pulmonary rehabilitation and the *metabolic age* or metabolic resilience,<br /><br>measured with the composite biomarker. The composite biomarker is based on<br /><br>blood response curves (t=0, 30, 60, 120 and 240 minutes) of six blood<br /><br>parameters after consumption of the PhenFlex drink: glucose, C-peptide,<br /><br>non-esterified fatty acids, cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides. The<br /><br>parameters are measured in blood. The composite biomarker will be reported as a<br /><br>health score, which is calculated by combining the outcome of the separate<br /><br>measures.</p><br>
