| Abstract: | Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with high incidence of morbidity and mortality. The imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants is thought to play an important role in the pathogenesis of COPD. A total number of 120 subjects comprising of 60 healthy controls and 60 COPD cases were studied. Among 60 COPD cases, 30 were chronic bronchitis patients and 30 were emphysema patients.
