Incidence of pulmonary embolism during COPD exacerbation*, **
OBJECTIVE Because pulmonary embolism (PE) and COPD exacerbation have similar presentations and symptoms, PE can be overlooked in COPD patients. Our objective was to determine the prevalence of PE during COPD exacerbation and to describe the clinical aspects in COPD patients diagnosed with PE. METHODS This was a prospective study conducted at a university hospital in the city of Ankara, Turkey...
متن کاملPatterns of proinflammatory cytokines and inhibitors during typhoid fever.
Cytokines and inhibitors in plasma were measured in 44 patients with typhoid fever. Ex vivo production of the cytokines was analyzed in a whole blood culture system with and without lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Acute phase circulating concentrations of cytokines (+/- SD) were as follows: interleukin (IL)-1 beta, < 140 pg/mL; tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha), 130 +/- 50 pg/mL; IL-6, 96 +/- 1...
متن کاملReduced spontaneous apoptosis in peripheral blood neutrophils during exacerbation of COPD.
A major feature of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the accumulation of activated neutrophils in the bronchial tree. This phenomenon can be explained by an increased migration and/or by a prolonged survival due to an inhibition of spontaneous apoptosis. The aim of this study was to assess the apoptotic behaviour of peripheral blood neutrophils in COPD patien...
متن کاملNutritional state during COPD exacerbation: clinical and prognostic implications.
AIMS To estimate the prevalence of malnutrition in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients hospitalized for exacerbation and to evaluate its clinical and prognostic influence on the exacerbation. SUBJECTS/METHODS The subjects were 78 consecutive patients with moderate-to-severe COPD who were admitted to hospital with a diagnosis of exacerbation. Nutritional status was assessed b...
متن کاملThe value of blood cytokines and chemokines in assessing COPD
BACKGROUND Blood biomarkers are increasingly used to stratify high risk chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients; however, there are fewer studies that have investigated multiple biomarkers and replicated in multiple large well-characterized cohorts of susceptible current and former smokers. METHODS We used two MSD multiplex panels to measure 9 cytokines and chemokines in 2123 su...
