class="figure-viewer-img"

Figure 1. The nomogram graphs for estimating the risk of COPD (the upper panel) and asthma (the lower panel) based on significant risk factors. Abbreviations: COPD: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; TC: total cholesterol; HDLC: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HCY: homocysteine; FPG: fasting plasma glucose. The point for each factor is summed and projected on total point line. A vertical line is projected from total point line to predicted probability bottom scale to obtain the individual probability of COPD or asthma risk.
