Chronic Airways Disease in Poland Recent Items
Chronic airways disease (CAD) has been of interest to epidemiologists in different countries for more than 30 years. Although several comparative studies have been done thus far, more are expected because the magnitude of the problem and its changes over time are not identical in different countries. Our aim is to present recent trends in […]
