Abstract excerpt

STUDY OBJECTIVES: The relationship between smoking and COPD has been well-documented. We investigated the impact of cigarette smoking on airway inflammation in COPD patients. DESIGN: Changes in cell profiles in induced sputum (IS) samples from smokers with COPD and patients who ceased smoking were compared. SETTING: Department of pneumonology in a university hospital. PATIENTS: IS samples were collected from 17...
