Article Synopsis
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major health issue globally, particularly in South Korea, where risk factors and an aging population contribute to its rising prevalence.
- A study created a nomogram using data from over 10,000 participants to help identify COPD risk factors, such as age, gender, education, and smoking status, aiming to improve early diagnosis and intervention.
- The nomogram showed strong predictive accuracy (AUC of 0.822), indicating it can effectively help detect COPD in primary care settings without the need for spirometry, enhancing public health efforts.
