On the contrary, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is typically caused by tobacco smoking, develops after the fourth decade of life and displays incompletely airflow obstruction, resulting in progressive decline in lung function and premature death. American Thoracic Society (ATS), in their guidelines of 1995 (1) defined asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, COPD, airflow obstruction and identified 11 distinct syndromes. There was an overlap at 6 of these 11 syndromes. Overlap syndrome percentages are increased from mid to later life progressively (2). The Spanish COPD guidelines propose four COPD phenotypes that determine differential treatment: nonexacerbator with emphysema or chronic bronchitis, mixed COPD—asthma, exacerbator with emphysema and exacerbator with chronic bronchitis (3). The mixed COPD—asthma phenotype was defined as an airflow obstruction that is not completely reversible accompanied by symptoms or signs of an increased reversibility of the obstruction (3). In another recent study from Spain, as well, Soler-Catalu?a et al. defined the clinical phenotype known as “overlap phenotype COPD-asthma” (4). For this diagnos
