Abstract

We investigated the prevalence of chronic obsctuctive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the proportion of affected patients receiving medical treatment. A total of 155 general practitioners examined 4,757 persons aged 45-84 years. All had a spirometry performed. Obstruction was defined as a forced expired volume in the first second (FEV 1 )/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio < 0.70 after bronchodilation, and severity was defined according to Global Initiative for Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) guidelines. The determined prevalence was 12%. Standardized to the Danish population the true prevalence of COPD was 9% (95% confidence interval, 8-10%). The majority had mild or moderate COPD. Among persons with severe COPD, 42% did not receive medical treatment.

2. [A prospective study of drinking habits and coronary heart disease in middle-aged Danish men and women - secondary publication].

Author

Tolstrup JS, Jensen MK, Tjønneland AM, Overvad K, Mukamal KJ, and Grønbaek M

Abstract

Individuals with a moderate alcohol intake are at lower risk of heart disease than abstainers. In this study, we examined whether the frequency of alcohol intake plays a role in this association. Among men, we observed a low risk of coronary heart disease among frequent drinkers that was independent of the total weekly intake. Among women, we observed a low risk of coronary heart disease that was independent of the drinking frequency. These sex differences in the association of alcohol with coronary heart disease deserve more research.
