Genetic/environmental determinants of adult chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and possible links with childhood wheezing.

Paediatric respiratory reviews - 1 Jun 2001

Smith O O, Helms P J

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiological evidence and similarities in underlying inflammatory mechanisms suggest that childhood respiratory conditions and adult onset chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may have a common aetiology. The prevalence of COPD in the UK has been estimated to be 10% in males and 11% in females, and like asthma, is thought to have a polygenic contribution with a complex interplay between genetic and...
