Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is no longer considered a
disease exclusive to the respiratory system. It is a multipronged disease with both lung and
systemic involvement. Although the forced expiratory volume (FEV) in one second is one of
the most commonly used markers to assess disease severity, in recent years, biomarkers
such as interleukin-1 beta, serum CXC motif chemokine ligand 10, fibrinogen, soluble
receptor for advanced glycation, surfactant protein D, and club cell secretory protein have …
