“…Moreover, the prevalence of COPD was 21% in all subjects, which is in good accordance with previous reports (14.6% to 41%) of patients with NAFLD [41,42]. In addition, aging and long-term smoking were risk factors for COPD in previous studies [9], and our study showed the same trend that median age, smoking rate, and heavy smoking were all higher in the COPD group than in the non-COPD group. Thus, our database appears to correspond with the general characteristics of the population in Japan.…”

“…NAFLD is also associated with the severity of COPD, and the risk of COPD is particularly high in adult men [ 8 ]. Smoking and aging are well-established risk factors for COPD [ 9 ]. However, one-fourth of adults with COPD have never smoked, indicating the presence of other risk factors [ 10 ].…”

“…[270] The development and exacerbation of CRDs are greatly influenced by environmental contaminant exposures, specifically air pollution. [271][272][273] The pathogenesis of CRDs exhibits a diverse spectrum of manifestation including oxidative stress, autophagy, mitochondrial dysfunction, formation of fibrosis and/or emphysema, and significant alterations in the ECM, affecting mechanical support and biochemical cell signals. [274][275][276] Treatments currently available can only help temporarily alleviate discomfort, while the only long term therapeutic solution currently consists of highly invasive organ transplants.…”

“…COPD is a global health epidemic predominantly caused by cigarette smoke (CS), and it is responsible for more than 3 million deaths worldwide every year and the third leading cause of death in the world. In addition, it is also a leading cause of chronic morbidity [ 2 ]. Pulmonary architectural disruption induced by chronic airway inflammation triggered by CS is arguably one of the most intractable problems of COPD, resulting in irreversible loss of lung function [ 3 , 4 ].…”
