          Abstract

          Obstructive airway diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), have airflow limitation associated with chronic inflammation. Using a national inpatient database in Japan, we aimed to evaluate factors affecting in-hospital mortality in patients with asthma, COPD or asthma-COPD overlap (ACO).
