Heliyon 2024; 10:e31524. [PMID: 38818179 PMCID: PMC11137537 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e31524] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate whether inflammatory indices, including the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), product of platelet and neutrophil count (PPN), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), correlate with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods This was a cross-sectional study from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database 2007-2018. The SII, NLR, PLR, PPN and LMR were calculated based on blood cell counts and were log2-transformed. COPD was diagnosed via a questionnaire or spirometry examination. Multivariate logistic regression, sensitivity analysis, subgroup analyses, and interaction tests were performed to evaluate the relationships. Results 23,875 participants, including 1000 COPD patients (453 diagnosed via spirometry examination, 547 diagnosed via a questionnaire), were enrolled in this study. Positive associations were observed between SII (OR 1.231, 95 % CI 1.081,1.401), NLR (OR 1.223, 95 % CI 1.064,1.405), PLR (OR 1.325, 95 % CI 1.086,1.617), PPN (OR 1.157, 95 % CI 1.031,1.298) and COPD, while a negative association was obtained between LMR and COPD (OR 0.794, 95 % CI 0.666,0.948) after covariate adjustments. When divided COPD patients into spirometry-based and questionnaire-based, only SII (OR 1.310, 95%CI 1.122,1.529), PLR (OR 1.669, 95%CI 1.272,2.191) and PPN (OR 1.218, 95%CI 1.050,1.412) significantly correlated with spirometry-based COPD, while only NLR (OR 1.303, 95%CI 1.055,1.609) and LMR (OR 0.524, 95%CI 0.406,0.677) significantly correlated with questionnaire-based COPD after covariate adjustments. Conclusion Significant associations are observed between different inflammation indices and COPD. Heterogeneity exists between spirometry-based and questionnaire-based COPD patients. Future studies are needed to verify the results.

Respir Res 2024; 25:150. [PMID: 38555459 PMCID: PMC10981805 DOI: 10.1186/s12931-024-02788-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between longitudinal body mass index (BMI) change and clinical outcomes in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has not fully investigated. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 116,463 COPD patients aged ≥ 40, with at least two health examinations, one within 2 years before and another within 3 years after COPD diagnosis (January 1, 2014, to December 31, 2019). Associations between BMI percentage change with all-cause mortality, primary endpoint, and initial severe exacerbation were assessed. RESULTS BMI decreased > 5% in 14,728 (12.6%), while maintained in 80,689 (69.2%), and increased > 5% in 21,046 (18.1%) after COPD diagnosis. Compared to maintenance group, adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) for all-cause mortality was 1.70 in BMI decrease group (95% CI:1.61, 1.79) and 1.13 in BMI increase group (95% CI:1.07, 1.20). In subgroup analysis, decrease in BMI showed a stronger effect on mortality as baseline BMI was lower, while an increase in BMI was related to an increase in mortality only in obese COPD patients with aHRs of 1.18 (95% CI: 1.03, 1.36). The aHRs for the risk of severe exacerbation (BMI decrease group and increase group vs. maintenance group) were 1.30 (95% CI:1.24, 1.35) and 1.12 (95% CI:1.07, 1.16), respectively. CONCLUSIONS A decrease in BMI was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality in a dose-dependent manner in patients with COPD. This was most significant in underweight patients. Regular monitoring for weight loss might be an important component for COPD management.

Abstract
PURPOSE To verify whether measurements of maximal phonation times are biomarkers of forced vital capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and to characterize the vocal aspects of these patients, taking into account variables, such as age, body mass index, use of bronchodilators, presence of symptoms, and quality of life related to voice. METHODS Complete records of 25 subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, both sexes, aged 31 to 85 years, evaluated by forced vital capacity, maximum phonation times of /a/, and numerical count and number reached at this count, Vocal Symptom Scale, Voice Quality of Life. Data were presented descriptively and statistically analyzed using Student's t test for independent samples and Mann-Whitney U test. A significance level of 5% was accepted. The receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted and the standardized value of forced vital capacity <80% was considered as an indicator of pulmonary dysfunction. RESULTS Patients exhibited reduced maximum phonation times for /a/, numeric counting, and reached digits in counting; discrepancies in Vocal Signs and Symptoms and Voice Quality of Life Scale scores. Numeric counting times of up to 12.5 seconds indicated that forced vital capacity may be impaired. CONCLUSION The patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease examined in this study exhibited vocal deviations as evidenced by reduced maximum phonation times of /a/, numeric counting, and the digit reached during counting, as well as deviations in vocal self-assessment. Maximum phonation time in numerical counting was considered a biomarker of pulmonary function impairment.

Abstract
The correlation between body mass index (BMI) and the development of cough, shortness of breath, and dyspnea is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between these parameters. Data from individuals who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey between 2003 and 2012 were analyzed. Weighted logistic regression analysis and smoothed curve fitting were used to examine the correlation between BMI and respiratory symptoms. In addition, the relationship between BMI, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and bronchial asthma was examined. Stratified analysis was used to discover inflection points and specific groups. Weighted logistic regression and smoothed curve fitting revealed a U-shaped relationship between BMI and respiratory symptoms. The U-shaped relationship in BMI was also observed in patients with bronchial asthma and COPD. Stratified analysis showed that the correlation between BMI and wheezing and dyspnea was influenced by race. In addition, non-Hispanic black individuals had a higher risk of developing cough than individuals of the other three races [OR 1.040 (1.021, 1.060), p < 0.0001], and they also exhibited an inverted U-shaped relationship between BMI and bronchial asthma. However, the association of BMI with cough, wheezing, dyspnea, COPD, and asthma was not affected by sex. High or low BMI was associated with cough, shortness of breath, and dyspnea, and has been linked to bronchial asthma and COPD. These findings provide new insights into the management of respiratory symptoms and respiratory diseases.

Abstract
Obesity is characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation and is strongly associated with multiple immunological diseases, including cancer and inflammatory diseases. Recent animal studies revealed that obesity-induced immunological changes worsen immune-driven diseases and cause resistance to immunotherapy. Here, we discuss the role of obesity in the immunopathology and treatment responses of cancers, respiratory and allergic diseases, and IL-17-mediated inflammatory diseases. We summarize the unique features of the inflammatory state of these diseases, which are orchestrated by obesity. In particular, obesity alters the immune landscape in cancers with a reprogrammed metabolic profile of tumor-infiltrating immune cells. Obesity exacerbates airway inflammation by dysregulating multiple immune-cell subsets. Obesity also dysregulates Th17, IL-17-producing mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT), and γδ T cells, which contribute to IL-17-mediated inflammatory response in multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and rheumatoid arthritis. By identifying the effects of obesity on immunological diseases, new strategies could be devised to target immune dysregulation caused by obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Body weight is a modifiable demographic factor. Although the association of body mass index (BMI) categories with sudden cardiac death was reported, dynamic changes of BMI and the risk of cardiac arrest remain unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) occurrence within a year and the percent changes of BMI preceding the OHCA. METHODS This population-based nested case-control study used the National Health Insurance Service Data of Korea. In all, 24,465 patients with non-traumatic OHCA between 2010 and 2018, who underwent national health check-up twice (one within a year and the other within 2-4 years before OHCA) and 32,434 controls without OHCA, were matched for age and sex. The association between the risk of OHCA and BMI percent change stratified by sex was investigated. RESULTS All the BMI percent changes of ≥ 5% significantly increased the OHCA occurrence with a reverse J-shaped association. Compared to individuals with a stable weight, those with severe (> 15%) BMI decrease had the highest odds ratio (OR) of 4.29 (95% confidence intervals [CIs], 3.72-4.95) for OHCA occurrence followed by those with moderate (10-15%) weight loss (OR, 2.80; 95% CI, 2.55-3.08) and those with severe (> 15%) weigh gain (OR, 2.24; 95% CI, 1.96-2.57), respectively. The impact of weight loss on the cardiac arrest occurrence was more prominent in men, while the impact of weight gain was more prominent in women. CONCLUSION Significant weight changes increase the risk of OHCA within a year with a reverse J-shaped association. Significant weight loss might be a warning sign for OHCA especially for men.

Abstract
In 2014, the European Respiratory Society published a statement on nutritional assessment and therapy in COPD. Since then, increasing research has been performed on the role of diet and nutrition in the prevention and management of COPD. Here, we provide an overview of recent scientific advances and clinical implications. Evidence for a potential role of diet and nutrition as a risk factor in the development of COPD has been accumulating and is reflected in the dietary patterns of patients with COPD. Consuming a healthy diet should, therefore, be promoted in patients with COPD. Distinct COPD phenotypes have been identified incorporating nutritional status, ranging from cachexia and frailty to obesity. The importance of body composition assessment and the need for tailored nutritional screening instruments is further highlighted. Dietary interventions and targeted single or multi-nutrient supplementation can be beneficial when optimal timing is considered. The therapeutic window of opportunity for nutritional interventions during and recovering from an acute exacerbation and hospitalisation is underexplored.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore the risk factors for readmission within 90 d in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients with frailty and construct a clinical warning model. Methods COPD patients with frailty hospitalized in the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of Yixing Hospital, Affiliated to Jiangsu University, were retrospectively collected from January 1, 2020, to June 30, 2022. Patients were divided into readmission and control groups according to readmission within 90 d. The clinical data of the two groups were evaluated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses to identify readmission risk factors within 90 d in COPD patients with frailty. Then, a risk quantitative early warning model was constructed. Finally, the model's prediction efficiency was evaluated, and external verification was carried out. Results The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, number of hospitalizations in the past year ≥ 2, CCI, REFS, and 4MGS were independent risk factors for readmission within 90 d in COPD patients with frailty. The early warning model for these patients was established as follows: Logit (p) = -1.896 + (-0.166 × BMI) + (0.969 × number of hospitalizations in the past year ≥ 2) + (0.265 × CCI) + (0.405 × REFS) + (-3.209 × 4MGS), and presented an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.744 [95% CI: 0.687-0.801]. The AUC of the external validation cohort was 0.737 (95% CI: 0.648-0.826), and the AUC of the LACE warning model was 0.657 (95% CI:0.552-0.762). Conclusion The BMI, number of hospitalizations in the past year ≥ 2, CCI, REFS, and 4MGS were independent risk factors for readmission within 90 d in COPD patients with frailty. The early warning model presented a moderate predictive value for assessing the risk of readmission within 90 d in these patients.

Abstract
The proportion of obese or overweight patients in COPD patients is increasing. Although BMI, WC and other easy to measure indicators have been proven to be related to the risk of COPD, they cannot accurately reflect the distribution and changes of body composition, ignoring the body composition (such as fat distribution, muscle content, water content, etc.), the relationship between it and disease risk may be missed. By analyzing the correlation between different body composition indexes and COPD patients, we can provide new research ideas for the prognosis judgment or intervention of COPD disease.

Abstract
Hyperlipidemia is frequently reported in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and is linked to the progression of the disease and its comorbidities. Hypercholesterolemia leads to cholesterol accumulation in many cell types, especially immune cells, and some recent studies suggest that cholesterol impacts lung epithelial cells' inflammatory responses and mitochondrial responses. Several studies also indicate that targeting cholesterol responses with either statins or liver X receptor (LXR) agonists may be plausible means of improving pulmonary outcomes. Equally, cholesterol metabolism and signaling are linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation attributed to COPD progression. Here, we review the current literature focusing on the impact of cigarette smoke on cholesterol levels, cholesterol efflux, and the influence of cholesterol on immune and mitochondrial responses within the lungs.

Abstract
Low body mass index (BMI) is an independent predictor of prolonged hospital stay and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, to the best of our knowledge, no studies have examined the validity of Asian BMI cutoff values for classifying severity based on the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria in patients with acute COPD exacerbations. This study sought to validate whether Asian BMI cutoff values can accurately predict 30-day in-hospital mortality, length of stay, and 90-day readmission outcomes for patients with acute COPD exacerbations. The present retrospective cohort study was conducted using a large claims database created by the JMDC. Patients were classified into three groups according to the severity of low BMI assessed using Asian BMI cutoff values. As a result, 624 (29.4%) had severely low BMI, and 444 (20.9%) had moderately low BMI. The severity of low BMI, as assessed by the Asian BMI cutoff values used in the GLIM criteria, was independently associated with 30-day in-hospital mortality (moderately low BMI: HR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.13−3.08; p = 0.014 and severely low BMI: HR, 2.55; 95% CI, 1.66−3.92; p < 0.001). The Asian BMI cutoff values used to classify the severity of malnutrition in the GLIM criteria are clinically functional for predicting the prognosis of patients with acute COPD exacerbations.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a widespread disease associated with high rates of disability and mortality. COPD is characterized by chronic inflammation in the bronchi as well as systemic inflammation, which contributes significantly to the clinically heterogeneous course of the disease. Lipid metabolism disorders are common in COPD, being a part of its pathogenesis. High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are not only involved in lipid metabolism, but are also part of the organism's immune and antioxidant defense. In addition, HDL is a versatile transport system for endogenous regulatory agents and is also involved in the removal of exogenous substances such as lipopolysaccharide. These functions, as well as information about lipoprotein metabolism disorders in COPD, allow a broader assessment of their role in the pathogenesis of heterogeneous and comorbid course of the disease.

Relationship of body mass index on activities of daily living in hospitalized patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Respir Med Res 2022; 81:100899. [PMID: 35523042 DOI: 10.1016/j.resmer.2022.100899] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2021] [Revised: 02/07/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight loss and low lean body mass in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with increased mortality; however, the association between body mass index (BMI) and physical ability remains undetermined. We aimed to investigate the effect of BMI on activities of daily living (ADL) in hospitalized patients with COPD. METHODS We used the Japan Medical Data Center's hospital-based database to extract data on hospitalized patients aged ≥ 20 years admitted for COPD between April 2014 and December 2018. The primary outcome was the presence or absence of deterioration in the Barthel Index score for ADLs at discharge compared with that at admission. Secondary outcomes were the length of hospital stay, readmission within 30 days, and the number of drugs administered on admission. RESULTS We identified 6529 patients with COPD from the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database, of which 3476 were analyzed (excluded: n = 5, ages < 20 years; n = 3048, missing entries). Barthel Index scores tended to decline in patients with BMI < 18.5 kg/m2 (odds ratio, OR: 2.030, p < 0.001) and Hugh-Jones grade 4 (OR: 1.79, p = 0.05) and grade 5 (OR: 2.15, p = 0.01), but not in the obese group (p = 0.598). The low-weight group had a significantly longer hospital stay (p < 0.001) at 14 (8-25) days with greater readmissions within 30 days (6.3%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Low BMI is associated with lower Barthel Index scores, longer hospital stays, requiring readmissions within 30 days of discharge.

Role of Short-Chain Fatty Acids Produced by Gut Microbiota in Innate Lung Immunity and Pathogenesis of the Heterogeneous Course of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23094768.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a widespread socially significant disease. The development of COPD involves the innate immune system. Interestingly, the regulation of the innate lung immune system is related to the gut microbiota. This connection is due to the production by gut microorganisms of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate. Nutritional disturbances and changes in the structure of the intestinal microbiota lead to a decrease in SCFAs production and their effect on pulmonary immunity. The presence of a metabolic and immune axis linking the lungs and gut plays an important role in the pathogenesis of COPD. In addition, the nature of nutrition and SCFAs may participate in the development of the clinically heterogeneous course of COPD.

Abstract
Objective Establish a simple predictive model and scoring rule that is suitable for clinical medical staff in respiratory departments to assess intestinal flora imbalance occurrence in stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. Methods From January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2020, COPD patients (195 cases) – who attended the Outpatient Department, Respiratory and Critical Care, Yixing Hospital, Jiangsu University – were enrolled in a cross-sectional study. Based on stool examination results, patients were divided into experimental (41 cases) and control (154 cases) groups. Single-factor and logistic regression analyses were performed with the baseline data of the two groups to obtain a new predictive model, which was further simplified. Results Five predictive factors composed the model: body mass index (BMI), serum albumin (ALB), Charlson’s Comorbidity Index (CCI), gastrointestinal symptom score (GSRs), and Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) classification. The model to predict intestinal flora imbalance in stable COPD patients had an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.953 [95% CI (0.924, 0.982)]. After simplifying the scoring rules, the AUC was 0.767 [95% CI (0.676, 0.858)]. Conclusion In the current study, we obtained a model that could effectively predict intestinal flora imbalance risk in stable COPD patients, being suitable for implementation in early treatments to improve the prognosis. Moreover, all indicators can be easily and simply obtained.

Abstract
Decreasing exercise tolerance is one of the key features related to a poor prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is useful for evaluating exercise tolerance. The present study was performed to clarify the correlation between exercise tolerance and clinical parameters, focusing especially on the cross-sectional area (CSA) of skeletal muscle. The present study investigated 69 patients with COPD who underwent CPET. The correlations between oxygen uptake (\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}
