Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease that is widespread throughout the world. As a nosological unit, COPD took shape only a few decades ago, and currently causes 2.9 million deaths per year (1). According to the World Health Organization, COPD is considered one of the leading causes of death among noncommunicable diseases (2). Occurring in a group of people older than 40 years, COPD is often combined with the pathology of other organs and systems (4).

According to the definition of COPD, which is included in the main COPD management document - the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD), 2014, the huge role of comorbidities in increasing the severity of COPD is emphasized , impact on quality of life (QoL), prognosis and survival. Among the numerous comorbidities considered are cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome (MS) and diabetes mellitus (DM) (3,5).

In the available literature, there are practically no clinical studies performed using a systematic approach to assessing the effect of MS components on clinical and instrumental characteristics and quality of life in COPD patients.
