诚然，我们有偏见地指出，肺部健康在公共话语中被忽视了，研究没有得到足够的资助，我们担心政治现实通常没有充分认识到呼吸系统疾病的重要性。这种偏见主要与欧洲呼吸学会（ERS）是国际呼吸学会论坛的重要成员有关，该论坛于2009年12月在墨西哥坎昆召开的第40届世界肺部健康联盟会议上召开，宣布2010年为肺部年。3根据世卫组织对慢性呼吸道疾病的最新估计，目前有3亿人患有哮喘，2.1亿人患有慢性阻塞性肺病，而数百万人患有过敏性鼻炎和其他经常未被诊断的慢性呼吸道疾病。呼吸系统疾病在死亡率、发病率、患病率和成本方面排名第二（仅次于心血管疾病）;到2020年，在全球6830万例死亡中，1190万例将由肺部疾病引起，包括肺炎、结核病和肺癌。4.5缺乏
Admittedly we are biased in stating that lung health has been neglected in the public discourse1 that research has not been adequately funded, 2 and that we have concerns that the political reality generally does not adequately recognise the importance of respiratory diseases. The bias is mainly related to the fact that the European Respiratory Society (ERS) is a prominent member in the Forum of International Respiratory Societies, which, in December, 2009, convened at the 40th Union World Conference on Lung Health in Cancún, Mexico, to declare 2010 The Year of the Lung. 3According to the latest estimates from WHO about chronic respiratory diseases, currently 300 million people have asthma and 210 million people have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), while countless millions have allergic rhinitis and other often underdiagnosed chronic respiratory diseases. Respiratory diseases rank second (after cardiovascular diseases) in terms of mortality, incidence, prevalence, and costs; and by 2020, out of 68· 3 million deaths worldwide, 11· 9 million will be caused by lung diseases, including pneumonia, tuberculosis, and lung cancer. 4, 5 Lack of
