AbstractIntroductionThe present study aims to investigate whether values of venous blood gas sampling can be used instead of arterial blood gas values in the evaluation of blood gas for the emergency service patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).MethodsPatients diagnosed COPD and identified to have acute exacerbation of COPD based on acute exacerbation of COPD criteria participated in the study. Data from arterial and venous samples were compared using Spearman and Pearson correlation and Bland-Altman analysis.ResultsNinety patients were included in this study. The results indicated statistically significant correlations between venous blood gas pH, pODiscussion and conclusionThe findings of the study suggest that some formulations can be used to estimate pH and pCO

Retrospective Clinical Study

Background: The influence of coronary atherosclerosis and related treatment drugs on acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) development requires in-depth study. The study investigated the effect of coronary artery calcification (CAC) and drugs for CAC on the development of AECOPD. Methods: This retrospective clinical study recruited subjects with AECOPD from May 2017 to May 2019. All subjects performed spirometry and coronary computed tomography (CT), and were divided into three groups according to whether coronary CT revealed CAC and whether they had received oral aspirin and statins: AECOPD group, AECOPD[Formula: see text]CAC nonmedication and AECOPD[Formula: see text]CAC medication. The t-test and nonparametric test were used for analyzing the lung function, arterial blood gas, routine blood and lipid between groups. Results: Compared with the AECOPD group, Lym% were significantly higher ([Formula: see text]) in both the AECOPD[Formula: see text]CAC nonmedication and the AECOPD[Formula: see text]CAC medication. The AECOPD[Formula: see text]CAC medication group also had significantly higher PaO2 ([Formula: see text]). WBC, Neu, and Neu% in the AECOPD[Formula: see text]CAC medication group were significantly lower ([Formula: see text]) compared to the AECOPD group. Conclusions: Aspirin and statins for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases may be linked to improving lung function, normalizing blood gas levels, and reducing inflammation in patients with AECOPD and CAC. Further, randomized controlled trials are needed to explore this topic.

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate diaphragmatic mobility in relation to lung function, respiratory muscle strength, dyspnea, and physical activity in daily life (PADL) in patients with COPD. Methods: We included 25 patients with COPD, classified according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease criteria, and 25 healthy individuals. For all of the participants, the following were evaluated: anthropometric variables, spirometric parameters, respiratory muscle strength, diaphragmatic mobility (by X-ray), PADL, and the perception of dyspnea. Results: In the COPD group, diaphragmatic mobility was found to correlate with lung function variables, inspiratory muscle strength, and the perception of dyspnea, whereas it did not correlate with expiratory muscle strength or PADL. Conclusions: In patients with COPD, diaphragmatic mobility seems to be associated with airway obstruction and lung hyperinflation, as well as with ventilatory capacity and the perception of dyspnea, although not with PADL.

1. We have measured serum testosterone and arterial blood gas values in men with chronic obstructive airways disease. 2. Depression of serum testosterone concentrations was found. 3. The degree of testosterone depression was related to the severity of arterial hypoxia.
