Affective Comorbidity Associated with Symptoms, Lung Function, and Differences Between Patients with COPD for Biomass and Tobacco Smoke Exposure.

Anxiety and depression are common entities in patients diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). This study aimed to determine the prevalence of affective comorbidity (depression and anxiety) associated with lung function, functional capacity, dyspnea, and quality of life; as well as the differences between groups of patients diagnosed with COPD associated with biomass (COPD-BE) and patients with COPD secondary to tobacco (COPD-TS). Comparative cross-sectional observational study.
