Description
Eleonora Volpato argues that personality traits shape how well lung rehabilitation works, in a short piece from 2026. The program helps people with lung disease breathe and function better, but gains vary by person. Past attempts to predict poor response with fixed trait cut-offs have not worked.
Volpato holds that traits still matter, not as pass-or-fail thresholds but as steady tendencies that affect how patients engage with training and daily change. Noting those tendencies can help clinicians tailor support, pacing, and follow-up to each person. The piece is a viewpoint, short in length, and it urges a shift from cut-off scores to personal care planning.
