BACKGROUND: Exposure to cigarette smoke is one risk factor that can lead to the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). AIM: The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between smoking and the stage of COPD. METHODS: This study used a cross-sectional survey design. A total of 60 COPD patients were involved in the study between September and November 2015 at the pulmonary ward of Zainoel Abidin General Hospital (ZAGH), Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The data were analyzed with the non-parametric bivariate test. RESULTS: The results showed that 55% of patients with COPD were aged between 40 and 60 years; 63.33% of them were heavy smokers. About 50% of moderate smokers suffered from Stage III COPD, while 34.21% of heavy smokers suffered from Stage III and Stage VI (severe) COPD, respectively, with p = 0.007. CONCLUSIONS: There is a strong relationship between smoking and COPD stage among patients at ZAGH.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung disease caused by the occurrence of airflow limitation in the lungs and also causes 60% of all deaths in Indonesia. Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the risk factors that affect the incidence of COPD in Indonesia. Methods: This study was conducted in July–August 2019 in Indonesia as an analytic research study with a cross-sectional design, using data from the Indonesia Family Life Survey-5. The sample consisted of respondents aged >15 years, giving a total of 34,231 respondents. Data analysis was partially carried out using the chi-square test to analyze the relationships between the variables. Results: The majority of respondents were female, were aged <40 years, and had a low level of education. Risk factors for the development of COPD included, among others, an age of >40 years (p = 0.02; PR = 1.20; 95% CI = 1.02–1.41), male gender (p = 0.01; PR = 1.26; 95% CI = 1.07–1.49), smoking (p = 0.01; PR = 1.22 ; 95% CI = 1.03–1.44), first smoking age < 40 years (p = 0.02; PR = 1.22; 95% CI = 1.03–1.44), residence in urban areas (p = 0.01; PR = 1.43; 95% CI = 1.20–1.70), being underweight (p = 0.01; PR = 2.17; 95% CI = 1.76–2.66). Conclusions: The risk factors that affect the incidence of COPD include being aged >40 years, being male, smoking, taking up smoking when aged <40 years, urban residence, and being underweight.

Objective: The Moroccan cross-sectional study aimed to investigate obesity in association to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in Fez city. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out in Moroccan adults. Anthropometric and spirometry measurements were performed using standardized guidelines. Results: Among the 744 participants, 53.9% of were women, with a mean age of 55.27 years (SD = 10.29). Nearly all women declared themselves to be never smokers, while 21% of men were current smokers. Overall, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease prevalence decreased with body mass index ( p = 0.01) and waist circumference ( p < 0.001). The same trends were also observed in women. The adjusted regression analysis showed a significant independent association between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and decreasing overweight (ORa: 0.66; CI95% (0.40–0.98)), obesity (ORa: 0.66 CI95%: (0.36–0.89)), and a decreasing waist circumference-abdominal obesity (ORa: 0.58 CI95%: (0.34–0.99)) in the whole population. The same association remains significant in women for overweight (ORa: 0.18 CI95%: (0.06–0.54)) and for waist circumference-abdominal obesity (ORa: 0.40 CI95%: (0.19–0.85)). All these associations disappeared for men. Conclusion: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease decreases with the increase in body mass index and waist circumference. The effect of waist circumference on the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was greater among women, regardless of the tobacco factor. A multicenter study would help to confirm the accuracy of these findings in a larger sample of the Moroccan population. Developed lifestyle programs in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease should be considered.
