Yang X, Liao J, Zhu S, Zhang C, Ma X, Zhang C, Wang Y, Sun K, Wang G. Association of high-sensitivity CRP and FEV1%pred: a study on non-pulmonary disease in a population in Beijing, China. BMJ Open Respir Res 2024; 11:e001699. [PMID: 38479820 PMCID: PMC10941139 DOI: 10.1136/bmjresp-2023-001699] [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: 03/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND No studies have investigated whether high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hsCRP) can be used to predict the forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/estimated value of FEV1 (FEV1%pred). This study aimed to assess the association between hsCRP and FEV1%pred in middle-aged and elderly individuals without underlying lung disease. METHODS The data for this study were obtained from a prospective cohort study that included 1047 middle-aged and elderly citizens from Beijing aged 40-75 years without any evidence of underlying lung diseases with FEV1 >70% after receiving inhalational bronchodilators. The baseline analysis of the participants was performed from 30 May 2018 to 31 October 2018. Restricted cubic spline regression and multivariate linear regression models were used to assess the non-linear association and linear association between hsCRP and FEV1/FEV in 6 s (FEV6) and FEV1%pred, respectively. RESULTS The hsCRP values of 851 participants were recorded; the values were normal in 713 (83.8%) participants. The remaining 196 participants (18.7%) had missing data. A non-linear association was observed between normal hsCRP values and FEV1/FEV6. hsCRP was linearly and negatively correlated with FEV1%pred, and each 1 SD increase in hsCRP was significantly associated with a 2.4% lower in FEV1%pred. Significantly higher FEV1/FEV6 differences were observed in the female subgroup than those in the male subgroup (p=0.011 for interaction). CONCLUSIONS hsCRP had a non-linear association with FEV1/FEV6 and a linear negative association with FEV1%pred in individuals with normal hsCRP values. hsCRP can be used to predict FEV1%pred, which can be used to predict the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. hsCRP has a stronger association with lung function in women than that in men. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03532893.

Objective Measurement of Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Points to Keep in Mind during Evaluations. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12093254. [PMID: 37176694 PMCID: PMC10179547 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12093254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective measurement methods using accelerometers have become the mainstream approach for evaluating physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB). However, several problems face the objective evaluation of PA and SB in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). For example, indicators of PA differ depending on whether the accelerometer detects the kind of activity on the one hand, or its intensity on the other. Measured data are also strongly influenced by environmental factors (weather, season, employment status, etc.) and methodological factors (days with uncommon activities, non-wearing time, minimum required wearing time per day, minimum number of valid days required, etc.). Therefore, adjusting for these factors is required when evaluating PA or SB, especially when evaluating the effects of intervention. The exclusion of sleeping time, unification of total measurement time, and minimization of the required wearing time per day might be more important for the evaluation of ST than for evaluating PA. The lying-down-time-to-sitting-time ratio was shown to be larger in COPD patients than in healthy subjects. In this review, we clarified the problems encountered during objective evaluations of PA and SB in patients with COPD and encouraged investigators to recognize the presence of these problems and the importance of adjusting for them.

Abstract
The prevalence of asthma has nearly doubled over the last decades. Twentieth century changes in environmental and lifestyle factors, including changes in dietary habits, physical activity and the obesity epidemic, have been suggested to play a role in the increase of asthma prevalence and uncontrolled asthma worldwide. A large body of evidence has suggested that obesity is a likely risk factor for asthma, but mechanisms are still unclear. Regarding diet and physical activity, the literature remains inconclusive. Although the investigation of nutritional factors as a whole (i.e., the “diet, physical activity and body composition” triad) is highly relevant in terms of understanding underlying mechanisms, as well as designing effective public health interventions, their combined effects across the life course has not received a lot of attention. In this review, we discuss the state of the art regarding the role of nutritional factors in asthma, for each window of exposure. We focus on the methodological and conceptual challenges encountered in the investigation of the complex time-dependent interrelations between nutritional factors and asthma and its control, and their interaction with other determinants of asthma. Lastly, we provide guidance on how to address these challenges, as well as suggestions for future research.
