Why does a COPD patient have a positive nitrogen balance?
COPD patients usually don't have a positive nitrogen balance, as the disease is more often associated with a general exhaustion of the body, and as such a net loss of total body protein. If a COPD patient does have a positive nitrogen balance, it simply means that the patient has eaten more protein than what has been broken down and excreted. This would most likely be associated with a positive net caloric intake and a gain of muscle weight.

Can singular be used for copd?
Yes, "singular" can be used in the context of COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) when referring to a specific case or instance of the disease. For example, one might say, "The singular impact of COPD on a patient's life can be profound." However, since COPD is generally discussed in a broader context due to its prevalence and multiple cases, it is more common to refer to it in the plural sense when discussing its overall impact on populations.
