Blood cell for the differentiation of airway inflammatory phenotypes in COPD exacerbations.

Eosinophils/neutrophils count parameters were relationship between blood and sputum. Eosinophils in blood and the ratios (ENR, EMR and ELR) may be utilized to assess eosinophilic airway inflammation in COPD exacerbations. Due to weak relationship and poor predictive ability, more researches should be required.
