pubmed:abstractText |
The authors of previous reports have suggested that women are more susceptible to cigarette smoke and to an airway-predominant COPD phenotype rather than an emphysema-predominant COPD phenotype. The purpose of this study was to test for sex differences in COPD phenotypes by using high-resolution CT (HRCT) scanning in male and female smokers with and without COPD.
