Objectives
Identifying high-risk patients is fundamental to slowing disease progression in mild-to-moderate COPD. Over one-fifth of these patients have impaired ventilatory efficiency, strongly associated with advanced disease severity, while its unclear prognostic value for high-risk case identification persists.
Methods
This was a prospective cohort study conducted from July 2019 to September 2024 (encompassing the COVID-19 pandemic period) in China. Non-COPD subjects and mild-to-moderate COPD patients who completed questionnaires, lung function tests and cardiopulmonary exercise tests at baseline were annually followed up over 3 years. Subjects with predefined high-risk criteria, including CAT score ≥ 10, mMRC score ≥ 2, postbronchodilator FEV1 < 60% predicted, and frequent exacerbations, were further excluded. Impaired ventilatory efficiency was defined as a nadir minute ventilation/CO2 output ≥ the upper limit of normal. Outcomes included annual lung function decline, exacerbation risks, and symptom scores.
Results
A total of 780 subjects were included, with 684 (88%) completing follow-up. Patients with impaired ventilatory efficiency displayed a greater annual decline in postbronchodilator FEV1 (54 [95% CI: 32–76] mL/year) than patients with normal ventilatory efficiency (31 [15–47] mL/year, adjusted P = 0.008) and non-COPD subjects (31 [22–40] mL/year, adjusted P = 0.001). However, no significant difference existed between patients with normal ventilatory efficiency and non-COPD subjects (adjusted P = 0.756). Similar results were observed for exacerbation risks and symptom scores.
Conclusions
Impaired ventilatory efficiency can identify high-risk mild-to-moderate COPD patients with poor prognosis independently of established risk factors. Further studies are needed to explore effective interventions for patients with impaired ventilatory efficiency.

Objective
Clinical control has been proposed as a composite endpoint in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), assessable through the COPD Clinical Control Questionnaire (CCOq). A new score, derived from the CCOq, and termed as RADAR (Rescue medication, Acute exacerbations, Dyspnea, physical Activity, and Risk) has been developed. This study aimed to validate the RADAR score by analyzing its predictive value for future risk and health status.
Methods
A 12-month prospective observational study was conducted in stable COPD patients. Clinical control was assessed at 3 months using both the CCOq and the RADAR score (range 0–8). Dyspnea was evaluated both adjusted and unadjusted for FEV1%. The primary outcome was time to the first composite event (emergency visit, COPD hospitalization, or all-cause mortality); the secondary outcome was the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score at 12 months.
Results
Of 265 patients enrolled (16.2% women; mean age: 68 ± 9 years; FEV1%: 58 ± 17), 239 completed the 3-month assessment. Among patients with RADAR scores of 0–1, 96.5% met CCOq control criteria, whereas none with scores ≥4 were classified as controlled. Patients were categorized as good (0–1), partial (2–3), or poor control (≥4). Time to composite event differed significantly across groups (p < 0.001), with RADAR remaining an independent predictor after adjustment. Predictive accuracy (C-statistic) was 0.697 (adjusted) and 0.713 (unadjusted).
Conclusion
The RADAR score effectively predicts clinical risk and health status, offering a practical tool for monitoring COPD and guiding clinical decisions.
