AB Both COPD and LC share their high mortality, tobacco history, genetic background, environmentalexposure and other underlying mechanisms. The aim of this project is to establish COPDprevalence, as well as its underdiagnosis in LC patients, and to analyze their clinical profile,comparing it with a control group of patients with COPD only, evaluating different phenotypes andlooking for biomarkers with potential at early diagnosis of LC or even with therapeutic andprognostic implications in this subset of patients. This work contains three different studies: asystematic review, a prospectiva cohort study basad on patients with LC with/without COPD, andtwo case-control study with subjects with COPD with/without LC.
