Abstrаct. The features of the course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are considered. It was established that this pathology is widespread in patients with tuberculosis and is determined in one third of patients. Moreover, the combination of respiratory tuberculosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease have a mutual aggravating effect, and the patients serious condition can be caused by both exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and progression of the tuberculosis process. The severity of the comorbid state is associated with a decrease in adaptive-adaptive mechanisms and a violation of the state of the homeostasis of the body. Patients with a combination of pulmonary tuberculosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are characterized by intense types of adaptive reactions, with their extreme manifestations, a deep and pronounced disturbance in homeostatic balance and a decrease in the reactivity of the body. Such changes are combined with functional disorders of the respiratory system (changes in spirometric indicators, impaired airway, impaired ventilation function and diffusion capacity of lung tissue). The combined course of pulmonary tuberculosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease affects the effectiveness of the treatment and its outcome. In patients with comorbid pathology, there is a decrease in the frequency of abacillation and closure of decay cavities, the formation of pronounced residual tuberculous changes in the lungs. At the same time, in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, chronic obstructive disease has a more severe course, with a pronounced symptom complex and a high probability of frequent exacerbations. In more than half of cases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is characterized by an unfavorable course with a high risk of exacerbations, more than twice a year, which is an extremely unfavorable factor for predicting the course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the development of complications. Identified violations impair the quality of life of patients suffering from comorbidity. Therefore, it is diagnostically important to assess the initial state of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in patients with tuberculosis, to predict its course and the risks of exacerbations.

The aim: To evaluate the effect of overweight on the quality of life of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients GOLD III. Materials and methods: 65 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD GOLD III) were examined in different phases of pathological process. The pulmonary function (PF) test was performed by means of “SPIROKOM” device (Ukraine). The degree of overweight was determined by calculating the body mass index (BMI) using the formula І = m/h² (m – body mass in kilograms, h – height, square of the height in meters (kg/m²). Patients’ quality of life was evaluated with the help of standardized St.George’s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ). Results: The study revealed changes in the PF indices and the decrease in quality of life in overweight patients, especially in case of destabilization of the pathological process. Conclusions: The obtained results show that overweight is the underlying condition for more severe course of the pathology and requires further study of its impact on the health and quality of life of patients in order to improve the effectiveness of treatment.

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TBL), as well as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), have a diverse negative impact on the quality of life (QOL) of patients. In this regard, a detailed study of the quality of life of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in combination with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease retains its importance and relevance.

The risk of developing cardiovascular pathology and premature death from it in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in combination with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is assessed. It has been established that more than 80% of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis are regular tobacco users. Chronic tobacco intoxication leads to the formation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, affecting the course of the tuberculosis process. In patients with tuberculosis on the background of smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pronounced clinical manifestations of the disease are determined, which are accompanied by a common tuberculosis process, decomposition in the lung tissue and bacterial excretion. Patients suffering from comorbid pathology revealed deep disturbances in the homeostatic balance of the body and changes in the reactivity of the body. Changes in the proteinogram were determined, with the predominance of g - и -2 fractions, an increase in C-reactive protein and fibrinogen, which confirms a pronounced systemic inflammatory response. The pathological state of homeostatic equilibrium of the body is accompanied by the development of hypoxemia, oxidative stress, systemic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and dyslipidemia. In a third of patients, changes in the lipid profile are determined against the background of a lack of body weight, which is an unfavorable prognostic sign during chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Such phenomena contribute to the development of multifocal atherogenesis, systemic arterial hypertension, cardiac remodeling and the rapid development of cardiovascular pathology. In patients with comorbidity, changes in the electrocardiogram are characterized by remodeling of the myocardium, a change in the position of the electrical axis of the heart, overload of the right heart, hypertrophy of the left heart. These patients are characterized by a decrease in exercise tolerance, a moderate and high risk of developing cardiovascular complications and premature death from them. Identified changes are predictors of early disability and premature death of patients with tuberculosis, contribute to a decrease in the quality and life expectancy of patients.

The influence of the systemic inflammatory response on the adaptive mechanisms and the state of homeostasis of the body in patients with respiratory tuberculosis against the background of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is considered. It has been established that respiratory tuberculosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are widespread among the population and are important causes of bronchopulmonary morbidity and mortality. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is determined in one third of newly diagnosed patients with respiratory tuberculosis. The combined course of respiratory tuberculosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a mutually aggravating condition. Comorbid pathology is much more difficult, accompanied by severe intoxication, disintegration of lung tissue and bacterial excretion. Biomarkers and the severity of the systemic inflammatory response are of great clinical and diagnostic value in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It was determined that the systemic inflammatory response in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is characterized by endothelial dysfunction of the vascular wall, significant changes in white blood cells, changes in the protein spectrum of the blood, and lipid metabolism disorders. The manifestations of systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction, characteristic of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, in patients with respiratory tuberculosis, aggravate the course of both diseases. The comorbid state is also characterized by a change in the lipid profile of patients, an increase in the content of total cholesterol and atherogenic fractions. These changes are interrelated with the state of adaptive mechanisms, homeostasis and reactivity of the organism. The state of homeostasis largely determines the development, course and outcome of pathological processes characteristic of tuberculous inflammation and inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and the increase in the effectiveness of the treatment is closely related to the restoration of homeostatic balance and reactivity of the body. The availability of methods for determining the homeostatic balance of the body in clinical practice, with their high information content, allows a personalized approach to the management of patients with comorbidity.

IntroductionPulmonary rehabilitation (PR) following an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) reduces the risk of hospital admissions, and improves physical function and health-related quality of life. However, the safety and efficacy of in-hospital PR during the most acute phase of an AECOPD is not well established. This paper describes the protocol for a systematic review with meta-analysis to determine the safety and efficacy of inpatient acute care PR during the hospitalisation phase.Methods and analysisMedical literature databases and registries MEDLINE, EMBASE, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health, CENTRAL, Allied and Complementary Medicine Database, WHO trials portal and ClinicalTrials.gov will be searched for articles from inception to June 2021 using a prespecified search strategy. We will identify randomised controlled trials that have a comparison of in-hospital PR with usual care. PR programmes had to commence during the hospitalisation and include a minimum of two sessions. Title and abstract followed by full-text screening will be conducted independently by two reviewers. A meta-analysis will be performed if there is sufficient homogeneity across selected studies or groups of studies. The Population, Intervention, Comparator, Outcomes and Study characteristics framework will be used to standardise the data collection process. The quality of the cumulative evidence will be assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations framework.Ethics and disseminationAECOPD results in physical limitations which are amenable to PR. This review will assess the safety and efficacy of in-hospital PR for AECOPD. The results will be presented in a peer-reviewed publication and at research conferences. Ethical review is not required for this study.
