The path to personalised medicine in COPD

TL;DR: A brief perspective of the extraordinary transition that the COPD field has experienced in the last two decades is provided, and how it should/can move forward in the near future in order to really achieve the goal of personalising COPD medicine in the clinic is speculated.

Association between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and systemic inflammation: a systematic review and a meta-analysis

TL;DR: Reduced lung function is associated with increased levels of systemic inflammatory markers which may have important pathophysiological and therapeutic implications for subjects with stable COPD.

Prevalence and outcomes of diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease in COPD.

TL;DR: Subjects with GOLD stage 3 or 4 COPD had a higher prevalence of diabetes, which contributes to a higher risk of adverse outcomes of mortality and hospitalisations, and subjects with impaired lung function had more comorbid disease.
