https://www.selleckchem.com/products/anacetrapib-mk-0859.html Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or COPD is characterized by airflow obstruction, causing respiratory symptoms. There are treatments available for COPD; however, COPD has significant extrapulmonary effects, including well-recognized ones as cardiovascular disease and often underdiagnosed ones as osteoporosis. It is imperative to be aware of these comorbidities to optimize COPD patient care.The presence of comorbid cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can result in unfavorable outcomes, ranging from deterioration in quality of life to increases in all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Moreover, cardiovascular events are major cause of hospitalization in patients with COPD and contributing significantly to the economic burden of the disease. Despite the acknowledgment of the prognostic significance of CVD comorbidity in COPD patients, CVD remains underrecognized and undertreated in this patient population. In this article, we address the current knowledge about the estimated prevalence, pathophysiologic association, as well as important considerations in the diagnosis and management of CVD in COPD patients.Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and results in an economic and social burden that is both substantial and increasing. The natural history of COPD is punctuated by exacerbations, which have major short- and long-term implications on the patient and health care system. Evidence-based guidelines stipulate that early detection and prompt treatment of exacerbations are essential to ensure optimal outcomes and to reduce the burden of COPD. In this review, we provide a concise overview of COPD exacerbations and their risk factors and etiology (infection vs noninfectious), outlining the initial evaluation, triaging, and current management including invasive and noninvasive ventilation, i
