Impact of obesity on the clinical profile of a population-based sample with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

<h4>Aims</h4>To characterize the distribution of BMI in a population-based sample of COPD patients and to evaluate the impact of obesity on their health status, exercise tolerance, systemic inflammation and comorbidity.<h4>Methods</h4>A population-based sample of 3,797 subjec...

Subjects were categorized according their body mass index (BMI) as underweight (<18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2) or obese (BMI≥30.0 kg/m2).
