Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) moved from fourth to third commonest cause of death in the world between 1990 and 2010. Using data from the Global Burden of Disease programme we quantified regional changes in number of COPD deaths and COPD mortality rates between 1990 and 2010. We estimated the proportion of the change attributable to gross national income (GNI)/capita and an index of cumulative smoking exposure, and quantified the difference in mortality rates attributable to demographic changes. Despite a substantial decrease in COPD mortality rates COPD deaths fell only slightly, from 3 million in 1990 to 2.8 million in 2010 because the mean age of the population increased. The number of COPD deaths in 2010 would have risen to 5.2 million if the age-sex specific mortality rates had remained constant. Changes in smoking led to only a small increase in age-sex specific mortality rates, which were strongly associated with changes in GNI. The increased burden of COPD mortality was mainly driven by changes in age distribution, but age-sex specific rates fell as incomes rose. The rapid response to increasing affluence suggests that changes in COPD mortality are not explained entirely by changes in early life.
