Objective:To explore the changes of serum histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2), lonely G protein-coupled receptor ligand (Apelin) and B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the predictive value for prognosis.Methods:A retrospective selection was made of 100 COPD patients (COPD group) admitted to the Fourth People's Hospital of Langfang from May 2022 to May 2023 and 50 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period (healthy control group) as the research subjects. The levels of serum HDAC2, Apelin and BNP in the two groups were compared. The levels of HDAC2, Apelin and BNP in COPD patients with different clinical characteristics were compared. The correlation among serum HDAC2, Apelin and BNP in COPD patients were analyzed by Spearman test. The predictive value of serum HDAC2, Apelin and BNP for the prognosis of patients with COPD was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The level of HDAC2 in the COPD group was lower than that in the healthy control group, the levels of Apelin and BNP were higher than those in the healthy control group: (2.38 ± 0.56) U/L vs. (7.51 ± 1.33) U/L, (491.62 ± 53.82) ng/L vs. (337.19 ± 46.52) ng/L, (211.05 ± 23.46) ng/L vs. (37.52 ± 4.32) ng/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). COPD patients with different clinical characteristics, including those in acute exacerbation and stable stages, mild, moderate and severe cases, COPD patients with pulmonary function grades Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ, COPD patients with and without pulmonary hypertension, and patients with poor prognosis and good prognosis, there were statistically significant differences in the levels of HDAC2, Apelin and BNP ( P<0.05). The Spearman test results indicated that in COPD patients, serum HDAC2 was negatively correlated with Apelin ( r = - 0.469, P = 0.001), HDAC2 was negatively correlated with BNP ( r = - 0.435, P = 0.001), and Apelin was positively correlated with BNP ( r = 0.418, P = 0.001). The results of ROC curve analysis indicated that the combined detection of HDAC2, Apelin and BNP had the highest area under the curve for predicting the prognosis of COPD patients (0.954), with a sensitivity of 81.66%. Conclusions:COPD patients have lower HDAC2 and higher Apelin and BNP levels. The three indicators are correlated to a certain extent, and their levels are closely related to the clinical characteristics of patients. The combined detection of the three indicators can be used as important predictive indicators for the prognosis of COPD patients.

The therapeutic effects of intensive insulin therapy in treatment of traumatic shock combined with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) were investigated. A total of 114 patients with traumatic shock combined with MODS were randomly divided into two groups: control group (n=56) treated with conventional therapy, and intensive insulin therapy group (n=58) treated with conventional therapy plus continuous insulin pumping to control the blood glucose level at range of 4.4-6.1 mmol/L. White blood cells (WBC) counts, prothrombin time (PT), serum creatinine (SCr), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), serum albumin and PaO(2) were measured before and at the day 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 after treatment. The incidence of gastrointestinal dysfunction, the incidence of MODS, hospital stay and the mortality were also observed and compared. After intensive insulin therapy, the WBC counts, SCr, ALT and PT were significantly reduced (P<0.05), but the level of serum albumin was significantly increased (P<0.05) at the day 3, 5, 7 and 14. In the meantime, the PaO2 was significantly elevated at the day 3, 5 and 7 (P<0.01) after intensive insulin therapy. The incidence of gastrointestinal dysfunction, the incidence of MODS, the length of hospital stay and the mortality were markedly decreased (P<0.01). The results suggest early treatment with intensive insulin therapy is effective for traumatic shock combined with MODS and can decrease the length of hospital stay and the mortality.
