Biomarkers of systemic inflammation and depression and fatigue in moderate clinically stable COPD
INTRODUCTION COPD is an inflammatory disease with major co-morbidities. It has recently been suggested that depression may be the result of systemic inflammation. We aimed to explore the association between systemic inflammation and symptoms of depression and fatigue in patients with mainly moderate and clinically stable COPD using a range of inflammatory biomarkers, 2 depression and 2 fatigue ...
متن کاملVariability of automated visual fields in clinically stable glaucoma patients.
The total variability of the visual field was measured in 20 patients with open-angle glaucoma who appeared to be clinically stable and well controlled on medical therapy. All patients had at least four visual fields performed on the Octopus 201 perimeter with at least 12 months follow-up since their first visual field. The four most recently performed visual fields were analyzed. Two different...
متن کاملAssociation of High Sensitive CRP Level and COPD Assessment Test Scores with Clinically Important Predictive Outcomes in Stable COPD Patients
BACKGROUND High sensitive CRP (hs-CRP) is used as a marker of systemic inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, we hypothesize that the raised hs-CRP is not closely related to the multiple consequences of COPD. This study was undertaken to investigate the association of COPD assessment test (CAT) score with SpO2, FEV1, body mass index (BMI), obstruction, dyspnea an...
متن کاملBiomarkers in COPD
to the multiple phenotypes of the disease and more than 200 different proteins used to construct the ciliary axoneme, it is likely to be some time before such tests are widely used in the diagnostic examination of patients with PCD. The diagnostic service is able to accept appropriate referrals from hospital consultants. However, the service does not extend to providing care for patients diagno...
متن کاملSmoking, season, and detection of chlamydia pneumoniae DNA in clinically stable COPD patients
BACKGROUND The prevalence and role of Chlamydia pneumoniae in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remain unclear, and molecular methods of detection may help clarify this relationship. METHODS Consecutive clinically stable patients with smoking-related COPD attending a tertiary care outpatient clinic were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were...
