Analysis of COPD: Distinguishing Characteristics and Management of Smoking vs Never Smoking Patients
COPD patients who have never smoked exhibited better quality of life, nutritional status, and lung function compared to smokers, indicating the need for tailored treatment approaches. Further long-term studies are essential to validate these differences in quality of life and lung function between smoking and non-smoking COPD patients.
