Hence, this review was conducted to determine the association between a history of pulmonary tuberculosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Following PRISMA 2020, we searched MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus from inception to August 2025 for analytical observational studies comparing individuals with and without a history of pulmonary TB. Odds ratios (ORs) were pooled using random-effects inverse-variance models (DerSimonian\u2013Laird).

When stratified by study design, pooled ORs were 4.92 for case\u2013control studies, 2.64 for cross-sectional studies, and 2.46 for cohort studies. Across regions, positive associations were found in Asia (2.21), Africa (9.36), the Americas (3.60), and Europe (2.77).

The pooled prevalence of COPD among survivors of pulmonary TB was 34% (95%CI: 28\u201340%).
