Article Synopsis
- * Chronic lung diseases identified include COPD, asthma, bronchiectasis, and restrictive lung diseases, with prevalence rates showing considerable variation; COPD ranged from 1.67% to 14.3% and asthma from 4.2% to 8.9%.
- * The findings also indicated that rural residents and those exposed to household air pollution have higher rates of airflow obstruction, and additional health issues like hypertension and diabetes worsen overall disease burden; hence, there's a need for better-quality research on respiratory health in the region.
