This research study is looking for patterns that predict which patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) will experience frequent flare-ups of their symptoms. Researchers will examine gut bacteria and use computer models to find warning signs that could help doctors predict and prevent these episodes in the future.
Currently, doctors have difficulty predicting which COPD patients will suffer from frequent flare-ups, making it hard to provide the right care at the right time. This study aims to develop a prediction tool that could help doctors identify high-risk patients earlier and find new treatment targets to improve their health.

You will be divided into two groups based on your history of flare-ups: those who experience frequent flare-ups and those who don't. Researchers will collect information about your medical history, lung function, and provide gut bacteria samples for analysis so they can identify patterns that predict future flare-ups. The study involves working with the research hospital team to gather this information.
