Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for peripheral arteriosclerosis (PAS) and peripheral artery disease (PAD) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and potential ultrasound indicators that could be used to improve detection. METHOD Outpatients seeking care between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2020, in The First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University were prospectively recruited. Subjects were divided into COPD and non-COPD (control) groups, and the COPD group was further divided into PAD and non-PAD subgroup, at the same time, PAS and non-PAS subgroup. Indicators of PAD -ankle-brachial index (ABI), indicators of PAS- pulse wave velocity (PWV), and ultrasound indices -peak systolic blood flow velocity (PSV) and blood flow acceleration velocity (AccV) were compared. RESULT Sixty-nine (61.6%) of 112 enrolled subjects had COPD. COPD patients had higher age, and blood pressure (BP)lower than controls. Seventeen (24.6%) COPD patients had PAD, the prevalence of PAD increases with the decrease of lung function, and seven (16.3%) non-COPD patients had PAD, however, there was no significant statistical difference between COPD and non-COPD groups. Fifty (72.5%) COPD patients had PAS, and thirty-four (79.1%) non-COPD patients had PAS, however, there was also no significant difference. The PAS subgroup had higher age, body mass index(BMI), body fat percentage(BFP), lower FEV1 and FEV1/FVC, as well as higher levels of right brachial artery and left dorsalis pedis artery AccV. Factors that correlated with ABI were 6MWD, post-bronchodilator FEV1, FEV1/ FVC, and maximal middle expiratory flow between 75% and 25% of FVC. Age, BP, and 6MWD, but not pulmonary function, were associated with brachial-ankle PWV (baPWV). There was a positive correlation between baPWV and radial artery AccV bilaterally. CONCLUSION Radial artery AccV correlated well with baPWV, which suggests that ultrasound could be used to assess both morphological and functional changes in vessels, may serving as a better method to identify PAS in high-risk COPD patients.

[PMID: 37511792 PMCID: PMC10381164 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13071179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has a heterogeneous natural history, manifested both in the variability of clinical features and in association with various comorbid pathologies. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is of great clinical importance and contributes significantly to the natural history and prognosis of COPD. The present study aimed to evaluate the nature of the comorbid course of COPD during a 15-year follow-up. (2) Methods: A total of 170 male COPD patients were included in this study. Spirometry values, symptom severity, presence of risk factors, and comorbidities were considered. Prognostic factors were evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method. (3) Results: ASCVD was the most common comorbidity and the main cause of death in patients with COPD. Patients with comorbid COPD and ASCVD had more severe dyspnea, higher frequency of COPD exacerbations, and worse survival than patients without ASCVD (p < 0.01). Among patients with COPD, the risk of death from ASCVD was higher in those older than 60 years (OR 3.23, 95% CI [1.72, 6.07]), those with rapidly declining FEV1 (OR 4.35, 95% CI [2.28, 8.30]), those with more than two exacerbations per year (OR 3.21, 95% CI [1.71, 6.11]), and those with a pack year index greater than 30 (OR 2.75, 95% CI [1.38, 5.51]. High Charlson comorbidity index scores in patients with COPD were associated with a more severe disease course, including severity of dyspnea, frequency of exacerbations, and multivariate index scores. A high Charlson comorbidity index score was an adverse prognostic factor. (4) Conclusions: ASCVD influences the course of the disease and is a major cause of mortality in COPD patients.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to summarize and analyse the risk factors, clinical features, as well as prevention and treatment of limb ischemia complications in patients on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO). Methods We retrospectively analyzed 179 adult patients who had undergone V-A ECMO support in the Cardiac Care Unit of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between March 2019 and December 2021. Patients were divided into the limb ischemia group (LI group) and the non-limb ischemia group (nLI group) according to whether limb ischemia occurred on the ipsilateral side of femoral artery cannulation. In the LI group, patients were salvaged with a distal perfusion cannula (DPC) according to each patient's clinical conditions. The baseline data and ECMO data were compared between the two groups, and risk factors for limb ischemia complications were screened using multiple logistic regression analysis. Results Overall, 19 patients (10.6%) had limb ischemia complications, of which 5 (2.8%) were improved after medication adjustment, 12 (8.4%) were salvaged with a DPC, and 2 had undergone surgical intervention. There were significant differences in terms of Extracorporeal Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (ECPR), Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), peak vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) within 24 h after ECMO (VIS-max), Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), weaning from ECMO, and discharge rate between the two groups. ECPR, IABP, and VIS-max in the LI group were significantly higher than those in the nLI group, whereas weaning from ECMO, discharge rate, and LVEF were significantly lower in the LI group compared to those in the nLI group. Furthermore, multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that diabetes [odds ratio (OR) = 4.338, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.193–15.772, P = 0.026], IABP (OR = 1.526, 95% CI: 1.038–22.026, P = 0.049) and VIS-max (OR = 1.054, 95% CI: 1.024–1.085, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for limb ischemia complications in patients who underwent V-A ECMO. Conclusion Diabetes, prevalence of IABP and VIS-max value in analyzed groups were independent risk factors for predicting limb ischemia complications in patients who underwent V-A ECMO. The cannulation strategy should be optimized during the establishment of V-A ECMO, and limb ischemia should be systematically evaluated after ECMO establishment. A DPC can be used as a salvage intervention for the complications of critical limb ischemia.

Patient-specific risk factors contributing to blood culture contamination. ANTIMICROBIAL STEWARDSHIP AND HEALTHCARE EPIDEMIOLOGY 2022; 2:e46. [PMID: 36310794 PMCID: PMC9614848 DOI: 10.1017/ash.2022.22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2021] [Revised: 01/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
Objective: Contaminated blood cultures result in extended hospital stays and unnecessary antibiotic therapy. Patient-specific factors associated with blood culture contamination remain largely unexplored. Identifying patients at higher risk of blood culture contamination could alert healthcare providers to take extra precautionary measures to limit contamination in these patients, and thereby prevent associated adverse outcomes. We sought to identify patient-related factors that contribute to blood culture contamination in hospitalized patients. Design and setting: We conducted a secondary data analysis of a retrospective cohort study at an academic medical center. Patients: Study participants included 19,255 adult patients who had blood culture(s) performed during a hospital admission between June 2014 and December 2016. Methods: Data were analyzed to evaluate risk factors for blood culture contamination using logistic regression. Results: Among adult patients, we identified 464 contaminated episodes and 11,010 negative blood-culture episodes. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 1.67; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.20–2.34) and stay in an intensive care unit (ICU) during an admission (AOR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.14–1.74) were associated with blood culture contamination. Other risk factors included race, body mass index, and admission from the emergency department. Subgroup analyses of patients admitted from the emergency department showed similar results. Conclusions: We identified patient-specific factors that increase the odds of false-positive blood cultures. By introducing mitigation strategies to limit contamination in patients with these risk factors, it may be possible to reduce the adverse clinical impact of blood culture contamination.

Abstract
Background Heavy smokers perform worse on neuropsychological assessment than age-matched peers. However, traditional pulmonary measures of airflow limitation and hypoxemia explain only a modest amount of variance in cognition. The current objective was to determine whether carotid artery stiffness is associated with cognition in former smokers beyond the effects of amount of smoking and pulmonary function. Methods and Results Eighty-four former smokers including individuals across a spectrum of airflow limitation severity were included: 30 without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease [GOLD] 0 with normal spirometry and lung computed tomography), 31 with mild-moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (GOLD 1-2), and 23 with severe-very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (GOLD 3-4). Participants completed questionnaires, spirometry, carotid ultrasonography, and neuropsychological testing. Multiple linear regression was used to determine whether carotid artery stiffness is associated with neuropsychological performance in 4 cognitive domains after adjusting for age, sex, pack-years of smoking, estimated premorbid intellectual functioning, and airflow limitation. Higher carotid artery β-stiffness index was associated with reduced executive functioning-processing speed in the fully adjusted model (β=-0.49, SE=0.14; P=0.001). Lower premorbid intellectual function, male sex, and presence of airflow limitation (GOLD 1 or 2 and GOLD 3 or 4) were also associated with worse executive functioning-processing speed. β-Stiffness index was not significantly associated with performance in other cognitive domains. Conclusions Carotid artery stiffness is associated with worse performance on executive functioning-processing speed in former smokers beyond the effects of aging, amount of past smoking, severity of airflow limitation, and hypoxemia. Future research should examine whether carotid stiffness can be used to identify former smokers at risk for subsequent cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Currently, the comorbidity (combination) of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is an relevant problem for health care. This is due to the high prevalence and continued growth of these pathologies. CVD and COPD have common risk factors and mechanisms underlying their development and progression: smoking, inflammation, sedentary lifestyle, aging, oxidative stress, air pollution, and hypoxia.
In this review, we summarize current knowledge relating to the prevalence and frequency of cardiovascular diseases in people with COPD and the mechanisms that underlie their coexistence. The implications for clinical practice, in particular the main problems of diagnosis and treatment of COPD/CVD comorbidity, are also discussed.

Abstract
The comorbidity of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is obvious from a clinical point of view, especially as smoking is an important risk factor for both. Another factor connecting these two clinical conditions is chronic inflammation, which plays a crucial role in their pathophysiology. The aim of this study was to present the prevalence of COPD in patients with PAD, as well as the prevalence of PAD in COPD patients confirmed in all patients by two reliable methods: spirometry and ankle-brachial index (ABI), respectively. The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews were searched to identify the potentially eligible publications from the previous 10 years. The published characteristics of different PAD and COPD populations were analyzed. A database search identified 894 records. Reliable criteria of both COPD and PAD diagnosis were used only in seven publications. The prevalence of PAD among patients with COPD ranged from 8.5 to 81.4%. The severity of the disease and the exclusion of nonsmokers or symptomatic patients from the analyses were important factors affecting this parameter. The prevalence of COPD in patients with PAD was measured reliably only in one study and assessed as 27.2%. The comorbidity of COPD and PAD is a relatively common occurrence. There are very few publications addressing this issue based on reliable diagnostic criteria, especially in the field of PAD. In the case of COPD and PAD patients, spirometry and ABI measurements are worth considering as noninvasive screening tests for COPD and PAD, respectively.

Limb ischemia in peripheral veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a narrative review of incidence, prevention, monitoring, and treatment.

Abstract
Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) is an increasingly adopted life-saving mechanical circulatory support for a number of potentially reversible or treatable cardiac diseases. It is also started as a bridge-to-transplantation/ventricular assist device in the case of unrecoverable cardiac or cardio-respiratory illness. In recent years, principally for non-post-cardiotomy shock, peripheral cannulation using the femoral vessels has been the approach of choice because it does not need the chest opening, can be quickly established, can be applied percutaneously, and is less likely to cause bleeding and infections than central cannulation. Peripheral ECMO, however, is characterized by a higher rate of vascular complications. The mechanisms of such adverse events are often multifactorial, including suboptimal arterial perfusion and hemodynamic instability due to the underlying disease, peripheral vascular disease, and placement of cannulas that nearly occlude the vessel. The effect of femoral artery damage and/or significant reduced limb perfusion can be devastating because limb ischemia can lead to compartment syndrome, requiring fasciotomy and, occasionally, even limb amputation, thereby negatively impacting hospital stay, long-term functional outcomes, and survival. Data on this topic are highly fragmentary, and there are no clear-cut recommendations. Accordingly, the strategies adopted to cope with this complication vary a great deal, ranging from preventive placement of antegrade distal perfusion cannulas to rescue interventions and vascular surgery after the complication has manifested.This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of limb ischemia during femoral cannulation for VA-ECMO in adults, focusing on incidence, tools for early diagnosis, risk factors, and preventive and treating strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are both related with high in-hospital mortality. We aimed to investigate the impact of COPD on the in-hospital outcomes in PAD. METHODS PAD patients were selected based on ICD-code I70.2 of the German nationwide database, stratified for COPD and compared regarding adverse in-hospital outcomes. RESULTS Between 01/2005-12/2015, 5,611,827 inpatients (64.8% males) were diagnosed with PAD; of those, 13.6% were coded additionally with COPD. Overall, 277,894 PAD patients (5.0%) died during in-hospital course. Prevalence of cardiovascular diseases as well as cancer (12.1% vs. 7.0%, P < 0.001) was higher in PAD patients with COPD compared to PAD patients without COPD. PAD patients with COPD showed more often lower PAD stages according to Fontaine classification (PAD stage I: 27.1% vs. 19.3%, P < 0.001; PAD stage IIa: 34.9% vs. 35.5%, P < 0.001; PAD stage IIb: 14.5% vs. 13.6%, P < 0.001; PAD stage III: 11.8% vs. 14.8%, P < 0.001; PAD stage IV: 13.8% vs. 19.6%, P < 0.001). The all-cause in-hospital mortality was significantly higher in PAD patients with COPD compared to those without COPD (6.5% vs. 4.7%, P < 0.001). Cardiovascular events comprising pulmonary embolism and myocardial infarction occurred more often in coprevalence with PAD and COPD. COPD was an independent predictor of in-hospital death (OR 1.16 (95%CI 1.15-1.17) P < 0.001) and an independent predictor for pulmonary embolism (PE, OR 1.44 (1.40-1.49), P < 0.001) in PAD patients. CONCLUSION COPD was associated with a high in-hospital mortality in PAD patients probably driven by higher frequencies of PE and cancer.
