COPD_&_CAD_data
The dataset comprises demographics and a range of biomedical variables from a cohort of 100 patients (53 patients with a primary diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), 24 with a primary diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) and 23 with both COPD and CAD. Patients were recruited from respiratory and cardiology departments at St George's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust between December 2015 and October 2017. Variables include a range of markers of respiratory function, systemic inflammation, cognitive function and structural white matter damage (from brain magnetic resonance imaging).

Raw data is provided on Sheet 1 of the Excel file. A number of variables had a non-Guassian distribution. These variables were transformed using log10 or square root transformations.
