Fenotipos clínicos en enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica: ¿volver al futuro?
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex and heterogeneous disease, that is defined by the degree of obstruction rendered by the forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEVj). This is a good parameter to define the severity of the disease but does not account for i...
