Background Rapid and accurate diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is problematic in acute care settings, particularly the presence infective comorbidities. Objective The aim this study was to develop a rapid smartphone-based algorithm for detection COPD or absence respiratory infection evaluate diagnostic accuracy on an independent validation set. Methods Participants aged 40 75 years with without symptoms who had no condition apart from COPD, bronchitis, emphysema were...

dysmotility symptoms score.A multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that the mean LCQ total score was independently associated with current smoker, fibrocavitary type, bilateral cavitary lesion, and FSSG (Table 2).Conclusions: Cough-and sputum-related QOL impaired in NTM patients smoking, radiographical characteristics, comorbid GERD being cough-specific QOL.
