His comments on improving air quality to reduce the burden on chronic respiratory diseases have inspired scientists and clinicians to dedicate themselves to the prevention and management of air pollution in China. Biomass fuels are the probable risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in rural South China Community based integrated intervention for prevention and management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Guangdong, China: cluster randomised controlled trial	./cache/cord-011800-8h7eiihp.txt	./txt/cord-011800-8h7eiihp.txt
