The characteristics and prognosis of bronchiectasis patients with airflow limitation: a prospective longitudinal study
The results of our study suggest that patients with airflow limitation are more likely to experience acute exacerbations and hospitalizations than are those without airflow limitation. Patients with bronchiectasis concomitant with airflow limitation should be identified as early as possible, and individualized treatment methods should be formulated.
