Abstract
Objective: To describe the clinical, subclinical characteristics and serum immunoglobulin concentrations during and after of acute exacerbations (AE) of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Subject and method: A prospective observational study. 127 cases were enrolled: 30 healthy persons in control group and 97 patients with AE of COPD, being treated at 103 Military Hospital from October 2015 to August 2017. Result: Severe and very severe dyspnea accounted for the highest proportion, average mMRC score of 3.2 ± 0.7. Life-threatening AE accounted for 43.3%. Increased number of leukocytes was 54.6%. Disorders of blood glucose and kidney function were common, increasing serum PCT levels by 54.6%, and CRP by 68%. Increased pCO2 was 47.4% and respiratory acidosis was 33% in arterial blood gas in AE. The serum concentration of IgG, IgG1 during and after of AE were lower than the control group. The serum concentration of IgA in COPD patients were higher than control group (p<0.001). Conclusion: Severe clinical symptoms accounted for a high proportion in AE and life-threatening AE accounted for 43.3%. Leukocytosis, increased serum PCT and CRP levels were common in AE. Serum IgG concentrations during and after of AE were significantly lower than in the control group.
