Popis:	RATIONALE: There is a paucity of population-based data on COPD prevalence and its determinants in Bangladesh. OBJECTIVE: To measure COPD prevalence and socioeconomic and lifestyle determinants among ≥40 years Bangladeshi adults. METHODS: In a cross sectional study, we measured lung function of 3744 randomly selected adults ≥40 years from rural and urban areas in Bangladesh, using a handheld spirometer. COPD was defined according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) criteria as post-bronchodilator ratio of Forced Expiratory Volume in 1(st) second (FEV1) to Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)
