Key result
Diabetes shares a bidirectional link with asthma and COPD, increasing respiratory risk and worsening glycemic control.
Why the study?
With the increasing prevalence of diabetes mellitus, understanding its implications for respiratory health and the relationship with chronic lung diseases such as asthma and COPD is essential.
Is there a bidirectional relationship between diabetes mellitus and the progression or development of chronic lung diseases?

DM-lung disease associations warrant clinical awareness; leaves open causal mechanisms and need for prospective trials before integrated management.
Is there a bidirectional relationship between diabetes mellitus and the progression or development of chronic lung diseases?
This review highlights a bidirectional relationship between diabetes mellitus and chronic lung diseases, emphasizing the need for integrated interdisciplinary care and screening.
Tarar et al. (2024) conducted a review in Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Lung Diseases. Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Lung Diseases vs. Individuals without these conditions was evaluated on Incidence and prevalence of chronic lung diseases in diabetes, and vice versa. There is a bidirectional relationship where diabetes increases the risk of developing chronic lung conditions like asthma and COPD, while these respiratory diseases can exacerbate glycemic control.
