abstract = {Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a growing
cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and accurate
estimates of the prevalence of this disease are needed to
anticipate the future burden of COPD, target key risk
factors, and plan for providing COPD-related health
services. We aimed to measure the prevalence of COPD and its
risk factors and investigate variation across countries by
age, sex, and smoking status.Participants from 12 sites
(n=9425) completed postbronchodilator spirometry testing
plus questionnaires about respiratory symptoms, health
status, and exposure to COPD risk factors. COPD prevalence
estimates based on the Global Initiative for Chronic
Obstructive Lung Disease staging criteria were adjusted for
the target population. Logistic regression was used to
estimate adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for COPD associated with
10-year age increments and 10-pack-year (defined as the
number of cigarettes smoked per day divided by 20 and
multiplied by the number of years that the participant
smoked) increments. Meta-analyses provided pooled estimates
for these risk factors.The prevalence of stage II or higher
COPD was $10.1\%$ (SE 4.8) overall, $11.8\%$ (7.9) for men,
and $8.5\%$ (5.8) for women. The ORs for 10-year age
increments were much the same across sites and for women and
men. The overall pooled estimate was 1.94 $(95\%$ CI
1.80-2.10) per 10-year increment. Site-specific pack-year
ORs varied significantly in women (pooled OR=1.28, $95\%$ CI
1.15-1.42, p=0.012), but not in men (1.16, 1.12-1.21,
p=0.743).This worldwide study showed higher levels and more
advanced staging of spirometrically confirmed COPD than have
typically been reported. However, although age and smoking
are strong contributors to COPD, they do not fully explain
variations in disease prevalence-other factors also seem to
be important. Although smoking cessation is becoming an
increasingly urgent objective for an ageing worldwide
population, a better understanding of other factors that
contribute to COPD is crucial to assist local public-health
officials in developing the best possible primary and
secondary prevention policies for their regions.},
