| Core Tip |
This is the first study in Taiwan that comprehensively evaluates the role of eosinophilia in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Eosinophilic COPD exacerbation is associated with a high risk of readmissions and a short length of hospital stay. It has the characteristics of non-infectious inflammation and is a predictor of steroid therapy. A routine survey of the peripheral blood eosinophil count is warranted for acute COPD exacerbations. |
