工作背景：慢性阻塞性肺疾病（COPD）在阿布扎比，阿拉伯联合酋长国的患病率是unknown.Methods：我们进行了一项横断面调查，在一个随机样本的个人40-80岁的阿布扎比，特别感兴趣的是探索当地的危险因素吸烟以外。结果：520例COPD患者中，男性占55%，平均年龄52岁，COPD的患病率为3.7%，95%CI为0.01 ~ 0.05，有效率为93.7%。（2.0-5.3）。在性别方面没有差异，COPD患病率仅在70岁及以上人群中显著增加。在COPD患者中，吸烟率相对较低（12%为当前吸烟者，12%为以前吸烟者），什沙（5%），烟斗（0%）或被动吸烟（5%）的使用甚至更低，而生物质的暴露则更高（33%）。有趣的是，面包时间的使用是非常高的（78%），但无论是面包时间，也没有任何上述的风险与COPD.Conclusions：COPD的患病率在40-80岁的阿布扎比是3.7%，与吸烟或其他当地的吸入性暴露的关联没有观察到。皇冠版权所有（c）2010由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Background: The prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates is unknown.Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey in a random sample of individuals 40-80 years old in Abu Dhabi, with a particular interest to explore local risk factors other than cigarette smoking. Airflow limitation compatible with COPD was defined as a post-bronchodilator ratio FEV1/FVC < 0.70.Results: From 520 participants surveyed (93.7% response rate), 55% male and with a mean age of 52 years, the prevalence of COPD was 3.7% and 95% C.I. (2.0-5.3). There were no differences by gender, and COPD prevalence only significantly increased in those 70 year and older. Among those with COPD, cigarette smoking use was relatively low (12% current- and 12% former-smokers), and it was even lower the use of shisha (5%), pipe (0%), or exposure to passive smoking (5%), while exposure to biomass was higher (33%). Interestingly, bakhour use was very high (78%), but neither bakhour nor any of the above-mentioned exposures were associated with the risk of COPD.Conclusions: COPD prevalence in 40-80 years old in Abu Dhabi was 3.7%, and associations with cigarette smoking or with other local inhaled exposures were not observed.
