Two distinct chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) phenotypes are associated with high risk of mortality.

<h4>Rationale</h4>In COPD patients, mortality risk is influenced by age, severity of respiratory disease, and comorbidities. With an unbiased statistical approach we sought to identify clusters of COPD patients and to examine their mortality risk.<h4>Methods</h4>Stable COPD s...
