Brief Summary  

Introduction

 

•        Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous lung condition characterized by chronic respiratory symptoms (dyspnea, cough, sputum production and/or exacerbations) due to abnormalities of the airways (bronchitis, bronchiolitis) and/or alveoli (emphysema) that cause persistent, often progressive, airflow obstruction.

•        Cigarette smoking is a key environmental risk factor for COPD. Cigarette smokers have a higher prevalence of respiratory symptoms and lung function abnormalities, a greater annual rate of decline in FEV1, and a greater COPD mortality rate than non-smokers

•        Wood, animal dung, crop residues, and coal, typically burned in open fires or poorly functioning stoves, may lead to very high levels of household air pollution which is associated with COPD.

•        Atopy coming from the greek atopos, meaning “out of place “, refers to the hereditary predisposition to produce immunoglobulin E (Ig E) against common environmental allergens.

•        Allergic sensitization has been shown to be a significant predictor of a faster rate of lung function decline and allergen exposure in sensitized individuals may provoke neutrophilic bronchial inflammation, similar to the inflammation seen in airways of patients with COPD.

•        However, whether allergy worsens respiratory symptoms in patients with COPD remains unknown.


Why this study is essential?

•        Only  10–15% of smokers go on to develop chronic obstructive pulmo-nary disease (COPD). The reasons for this are likely complex and  relate  primarily  to  three  factors:  genetic  susceptibility ,dose and timing of exposure, and interactions between smoking and other environmental factors of interest in causing the disease.

•        International chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) guidelines such as the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) make no recommendations for allergy diagnosis or treatment. This absence of recommendations may be appropriate given the lack of available evidence.

•        The  goal  of  this  study  is  to  consider  the  epidemiologic data that atopy defined as immediate type II hypersensitivity, and not as clinical asthma, is a risk factor for the development of chronic obstructive lung disease.
