First seen Apr 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This study looked at 90 adult smokers with breathing problems to see if a simple questionnaire called the CAT score could detect early airway issues before COPD develops. Participants had lung function tests, a 6-minute walk test, and their CAT scores recorded. The goal was to find a link between higher CAT scores and reduced lung function, which might help catch lung problems earlier.
