Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cardiovascular risk in terms of nutritional status (review)

Comorbidity risk factors in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is largely determined by the systemic effects of chronic inflammation. Individual phenotypes of the disease have different prognostic significance. The review presents an analysis of literature data about cardiovascular risk in COPD, depending on the nutritional status of a patient. Literature sources were searched using PubMed, CyberLeninka, MedLine, Global Health, eLibrary, Google Scholar databases on queries: comorbidity with COPD, systemic inflammation and COPD, cardiovascular pathology and COPD, obesity and weight deficiency with COPD. The work includes 40 literature sources over the past 10 years on the risk factors of comorbidity in view of systemic inflammation. Four works from an earlier period were also used, demonstrating fundamental and historical information from the point of view of the authors. As a result of the search, the factors of the worst prognosis in COPD patients with weight deficiency and the protective sense of obesity are clarified. This effect allows you to personalize dietary recommendations. Nevertheless, there are not enough data about mechanisms of chronic inflammation with weight deficiency.
