Prognostic Properties of the GOLD 2023 Classification System.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Recently, the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) has published an update on the Global Strategy for Prevention, Diagnosis and Management of COPD, introducing a new classification of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
