Abstract:
Objective:To explore the expression of CD14 in peripheral blood monocytes to predict the prognosis of patients with severe COPD complicated with pulmonary infection.Methods:A total of 122 patients with severe COPD and pulmonary infection diagnosed and treated in East Lianyungang Hospital from January 2019 to February 2022 were selected as co-infection group,127 pa-tients with severe COPD were selected as COPD group,and 62 healthy subjects in physical examination during the same period were selected as control group.After 30 days of follow-up,patients in co-infected group were divided into death group(n=16)and survival group(n=106)according to prognosis during hospitalization.Membrane CD14(mCD14)related parameters of control group,COPD group and co-infected group were compared.Dynamic changes of mCD14 related parameters were compared between death group and survival group at day 1,3,5,7 and 14 after diagnosis.Cox proportional hazard regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of death in patients with severe COPD complicated with pulmonary infection after 30 days.Predictive values of CD14%,CD14MFI and CD14IND on prognostic death were analyzed by ROC curve,and the area under the curve(AUC)was compared.Ka-plan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve to compare the survival of patients with different CD14IND levels.Results:Com-pared with control group,CD14%,CD14MFI and CD14IND in COPD group and co-infection group were significantly decreased;com-pared with COPD group,CD14%,CD14MFI and CD14IND in co-infection group were significantly decreased,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Expression of mCD14 in survival group increased steadily during the whole monitoring process,while expression in death group fluctuated at a low level.COPD grade,forced expiratory volume in 1 second/forced vital capacity(FEV1/FVC),forced expiratory volume in 1 second as a percentage of predicted value(FEV1%pred),CD14%,CD14MFI,CD14IND were all risk factors for death in patients with severe COPD complicated with pulmonary infection(P<0.05).CD14%,CD14MFI and CD14IND were negatively correlated with mortality and COPD grade in patients with severe COPD complicated with pulmonary infec-tion,while were positively correlated with FEV1%pred and FEV1/FVC(P<0.001).With CD14IND≤74.36 as cut-off value,the sensi-tivity and specificity of predicting death reached 91.22%and 95.51%respectively.The 30-day survival rate of high-risk group was 68.42%(26/38),which was significantly lower than 95.24%(80/84)of low-risk group(log-rank χ2=10.067,P=0.002).Conclusion:mCD14-related parameters are expected to be the prognostic markers of death in patients with severe COPD complicated with pulmo-nary infection,and the sensitivity and specificity of CD14IND are better than those of CD14%and CD14MFI.
