The specific role of lysophospholipids (LysoPLs) in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is not yet fully understood. We determined serum LysoPLs in 20 patients with stable COPD and 20 healthy smokers using liquid chromato...
RATIONALE: Individuals homozygous for the Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) Z allele (Pi*ZZ) exhibit heterogeneity in COPD risk. COPD occurrence in non-smokers with AAT deficiency (AATD) suggests that inflammatory processes may contribute to COPD risk indepe...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a progressively worsening respiratory condition, severely impacts patient quality of life. Early risk assessment can improve treatment outcomes and lessen healthcare burdens. How...
BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major global public health concern, and early screening and identification of high-risk populations are critical for reducing the disease burden. Although several studies have explored the...
BACKGROUND: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a prevalent respiratory condition often accompanied by depression, which exacerbates disease burden and impairs quality of life. Early identification of depression risk in COPD patients rema...
BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), marked by dyspnea, cough, and sputum production, significantly impairs patients' quality of life and functionality. Effective management strategies, particularly those empowering patients to m...
BACKGROUND: In people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β-agonist (ICS/LABA) therapy, the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) recommends stepping up to ICS/long-acting mu...
