[The relevance of serum-complement factors in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (author's transl)].
In a search for host factors predisposing for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease we have correlated in 20 patients the function of complement with the findings in functional lung exploration. Thereby we found no interrelationship between these two biological parameters.
