摘要: The chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) encompasses two phenotypically related diseases, bronchitis and emphysema [1-2]. Although the hallmark of COPD is inflammation inability to maintain efficient gas exchange, often characterized by atypical over-distension alveoli permanent destruction surrounding supporting structures leading irreversible damage gaseous exchange. Statistically, it rapidly approaching a cause mortality in United States [3], with morbidity 4.9 million [4] rate at 4.2 per 100,000 [5]. Even higher prevalence incidences bronchitis, from (12,790) had exceeded that (667) pulmonary-related deaths [5] making early diagnosis treatment an alarming continued for concern.
