Effect of tiotropium on lung function decline in early-stage of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients: propensity score-matched analysis of real-world data

BACKGROUND: Tiotropium failed to slow the annual rate of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV(1)) decline in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with <70% predicted FEV(1).
