Abstract
A very slight restrictive pattern and a reduction in inspiratory muscle strength were observed. The HRQL domains most affected were those related to physical activity and the patients' self-perceived health status. The weakness of the respiratory muscles contributes to the abnormalities observed in lung function and to the deterioration of health-related quality of life.
