Objective To analyse the quality of life in patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) for 10 years. Methods Twenty-five SARS patients were collected as SARS group and 25 healthy persons were used as control group. There were no significant differences in general clinical data between two groups. The quality of life of the respondents was evaluated by the MOS item short form health survey (SF-36) including physiological function, physical pain, general health condition, energy, social function, emotional function and mental health. The pulmonary function indicators including forced vital capacity (FVC), one second forced expiratory volume (FEV1), one second rate (FEV1/FVC), total lung capacity (TLC), residual volume (RV), corrected breath diffusing capacity (TLCOc SB) and corrected dispersion rate TLCOc/VA were also compared between two groups. The correlation between each dimension score of pulmonary function indexes and quality of life were analyzed in SARS group. Data of hip and femoral head necrosis were detected by MRI scan in SARS group of patients. Results Total quality of life score was poor in 23 cases (92.0%), and moderate quality of life score in 2 cases (8.0%). The quality of life score was lower in SARS group than that of control group (P<0.01). Data of TLCOc SB was lower in SARS group than that of control group. The score of physiological function was positively correlated with FEV1 and FEV1/FVC. The score of physical pain was positively correlated with FEV1/FVC (P<0.05). There were no significant differences between quality of life score and pulmonary function indicators. There were 11 cases (44%) of avascular necrosis of femoral head, and 14 cases (56%) of non-avascular necrosis of femoral head in SARS group. The score of physiological function was lower in femoral head necrosis group than that of non necrosis group (P<0.05). ConclusionThe lower quality of life in patients with SARS is not only related with psychological factors but also related with physical factors. The damage of pulmonary function and (or) necrosis of femoral head affect the quality of life in patients with SARS, especially the physiological function.

Objective:To analyze the comprehensive blood inflammation index of the patients with stage I pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary infection, and to explore its value in predicting the patients' disease.Methods:In September 2023, 83 patients with stage I pneumoconiosis who were treated in Tianjin Occupational Diseases Precaution and Therapeutic Hospital from November 2021 to August 2023 were selected and divided into non-infected group (56 cases) and infected group (27 cases) according to whether they were combined with lung infection. Workers with a history of dust exposure but diagnosed without pneumoconiosis during the same period were selected as the control group (65 cases) . By referring to medical records and collecting clinical data such as gender, age, occupational history, past medical history, hematology testing, the differences in the comprehensive blood inflammation indexes among the three groups were compared, ROC curve was drawn, and the relationship between comprehensive blood inflammation indexes and stage I pneumoconiosis and its combined lung infection was analyzed.Results:There were significtant differences in the number of neutrophils (N) , the number of lymphocytes (L) , the number of monocytes (M) , C-reactive protein (CRP) , the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) , the monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) , the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) , the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) , the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) , the aggregate index of systemic inflammation (AISI) , the derived neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (dNLR) , the neutrophil to lymphocyte and platelet ratio (NLPR) , and the C-reactive protein to lymphocyte ratio (CLR) ( P<0.05) . Compared with the control group, MLR, SIRI and AISI in the non-infected group were significantly increased ( P<0.05) . NLR, MLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, AISI, dNLR, NLPR, CLR were significantly increased ( P<0.05) . Compared with the non-infected group, NLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, AISI, dNLR, NLPR and CLR were significantly increased in the infected group ( P<0.05) . ROC analysis showed that NLR, MLR, PLR, SII, SIRI and AISI had a certain predictive capability for stage I pneumoconiosis ( P<0.05) , among which MLR had the highest efficacy, with an AUC of 0.791 (95% CI: 0.710-0.873) , the cut-off value was 0.18, the sensitivity was 71.4%, and the specificity was 78.5%. NLR, MLR, PLR, SII, SIRI, AISI, dNLR, NLPR and CLR all had a certain predictive capability forstage I pneumoconiosis combined lung infection ( P<0.05) , among which CLR had the highest efficacy, with an AUC of 0.904 (95% CI: 0.824~0.985) , the cut-off value was 5.33, sensitivity was 77.8%, specificity was 98.2%. Conclusion:The comprehensive blood inflammation index may be an auxiliary predictor of stage I pneumoconiosis and its combined lung infections.
