The data were analyzed by logistic regression. Respondents who live in urban were have a risk 1.7 times less likely to experience COPD than respondents who live in village area (OR 0.59; 95% CI 0.44-0.78). In the TB history variable, respondents who had a history of TB were 3.6 times less likely to develop COPD than respondents who did not have a history of TB (OR 0.28; 95% CI 0.14-0.55). Asthma history tends to be 2.4 times less likely to develop COPD than respondents who have no history of asthma (OR 0.42; 95% CI 0.24-0.74). In the BMI variable, respondents who had a BMI ≤ 18.50 tends to be 2 times less likely to develop COPD (OR 0.49; 95% CI 0.36-0.69). In the smoking status variable, respondents who smoked 2.4 times the risk of having COPD compared to non-smoking respondents (OR 2.42; 95% CI 1.78-3.28).
