Abstract:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) manifests as persistent respiratory symptoms and progressive airflow obstruction and can further develop into pulmonary heart disease. COPD is a common chronic disease caused by respiratory failure. Cigarette smoke and other harmful pollutants are common risk factors for COPD and usually cause abnormal pulmonary inflammatory response. More than three million people die annually from COPD.
