This document discusses risk factors, prevalence, symptoms, and management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. It provides statistics on the increasing mortality rates of COPD compared to declines in other causes of death. Studies from Pakistan show the frequency of asthma, allergic rhinitis, and their relationship to socioeconomic status. The document examines the pathology and inflammatory processes of COPD compared to asthma and how these differences impact clinical presentation and therapy.

Editor's Notes
- Pathogenesis of COPD, illustrating the central role of inflammation
- Changes in large airways of COPD patients. The epithelium often shows squamous metaplasia and there is goblet cell and submucosal gland hyperplasia, resulting in mucus hypersecretion. The airway wall is infiltrated with macrophages and CD8+ lymphocytes, whereas neutrophils predominate in the airway lumen and around submucosal glands. Airway smooth muscle and basement membrane are minimally increased compared to the findings in asthma.
- Air trapping in COPD. During expiration small airways narrow but closure is prevented by the elasticity of alveolar attachments. In COPD patients there is a loss of elasticity with greater narrowing in small airways, which may close completely when there is loss of alveolar attachments as a result of emphysema. This results in air trapping and hyperinflation, leading to dyspnea and reduced exercise capacity.
- Changes in small airways in COPD patients. The airway wall is thickened and infiltrated with inflammatory cells, predominately macrophages and CD8+ lymphocytes, with increased numbers of fibroblasts. In severe COPD there are also lymphoid follicles. The lumen is often filled with an inflammatory exudate and mucus. There is peribronchial fibrosis and airway smooth muscle may be increased, resulting in narrowing of the airway.
- Changes in the lung parenchyma in COPD patients. There is loss of elasticity and alveolar wall destruction, and accumulation of inflammatory cells, predominantly macrophages and CD8+ lymphocytes. The destructive changes reduce the pulmonary capillary bed. The left panel shows a scanning electron micrograph of a patient with emphysema demonstrating the enlargement of alveoli and destruction of the alveolar walls.
- Inflammatory cells involved in COPD. Cigarette smoke activates macrophages and epithelial cells to release chemotactic factors that recruit neutrophils, monocytes and CD8+ T-lymphocytes from the circulation. They also release factors that activate fibroblasts leading to small airway obstruction (obstructive bronchiolitis). Proteases released from neutrophils and macrophages may cause mucus hypersecretion and emphysema.
- Oxidative stress in COPD has several detrimental consequences, including activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), reduction in antiproteases, plasma leakage and mucus hypersecretion. In addition it reduces histone deacetylase-2, resulting in amplified inflammation and reduced anti-inflammatory response to corticosteroids.
- This provides a summary of the recommended treatment at each stage of COPD.
