Research Article: Association of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease with Risk of Psychiatric Disorders: A Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Study

Date Published: 2024-02-01

Abstract:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive inflammatory respiratory condition characterized by symptoms like dyspnea, limited physical activity, and partially reversible airflow obstruction. While smoking is widely acknowledged as the primary contributor to COPD, other factors such as genetic abnormalities, abnormal lung development, and air pollution also play a role. Over the years, the global prevalence of COPD has been rising, making it the third most significant contributor to worldwide mortality and morbidity. Indeed, COPD places significant financial strain on governments, healthcare systems, societies, and economies worldwide.
