“…They showed that some chronic respiratory diseases, including bronchitis and emphysema, are positively associated with the risk of lung cancer [17, 19]. However, these efforts focused mainly on evaluating diseases and chronic inflammation associated with smoking, a major contributor to lung cancer.…”

“…Denholm et al confirmed an inverse relationship between asthma and the incidence of lung cancer. In contrast, for chronic bronchitis, emphysema and pneumonia, a positive correlation was found when diagnosed less than 2 years before the diagnosis of lung cancer [16].…”

“…The role of preexisting chronic respiratory disease in mediating lung cancer risk was examined in a large international SYNERGY study of 12,739 cases and 14,945 control subjects (8). Chronic bronchitis and emphysema were positively associated with lung cancer risk, as was shown in previous studies.…”
