Comparison of STAR and GOLD in Assessing Disease Severity Among High-Risk and COPD Patients: Evidence from Enjoying Breathing Program in China by Huang K, Tang X, Chu X, Niu H, Li W, Zheng Z, Peng Y, Lei J, Li Y, Li B, Yang T, Wang C

“…In addition, in COPD patients, by considering of GOLD and STAR together, GOLD 3 and 4 can provide more information about the exacerbation based on each STAR level, and STAR 1 and 2 can provide more information about the exacerbation in GOLD 2– 4. COPD patients with GOLD 4 and STAR 2 (HR=4.08, 95% CI: 2.75– 6.04) had the highest risk of exacerbation, followed by COPD patients with GOLD 4 and STAR 1 (HR=3.94, 95% CI: 2.49– 6.23).Conclusion: In COPD patients, GOLD performs better than STAR in predicting exacerbation risk. …”
