Abstract

Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm) manifests notable epidemiological disparities across the globe, with its prevalence and influential factors showcasing pronounced diversities among various geographical territories and demographics. The prevalence of PRISm fluctuates considerably among regions such as Latin America, the United States, and Asian nations, potentially correlating with a myriad of determinants, including socioeconomic status, environmental factors, and lifestyle modalities. Concurrently, the link between PRISm and health risks and other disorders, especially its distinction and interrelation with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), has become a pivotal subject of scientific enquiry. Radiographic anomalies, such as perturbations in the pulmonary parenchyma and structural alterations, are posited as salient characteristics of PRISm. Furthermore, PRISm unveils intricate associations with multiple comorbidities, inclusive of hypertension and type 2 diabetes, thereby amplifying the intricacy in comprehending and managing this condition. In this review, we aim to holistically elucidate the epidemiological peculiarities of PRISm, its potential aetiological contributors, its nexus with COPD, and its association with radiographic aberrations and other comorbidities. An integrative understanding of these dimensions will provide pivotal insights for the formulation of more precise and personalised preventative and therapeutic strategies.
