Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the characteristics of and associated risk factors for pulmonary dysfunction in silicosis patients with progressive massive fibrosis (PMF) .Methods:In-patients with PMF treated in the Department of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology in Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2014 to October 2020 were enrolled in this study. Based on their pulmonary ventilation function, the patients were divided into normal ventilation group, obstructive ventilation dysfunction group, restrictive ventilation dysfunction group, and mixed ventilation dysfunction group. The location and area of the large opacity and the grade of emphysema were evaluated by high-resolution CT (HRCT) of the chest. Based on the location, the large opacity was classified into central type, peripheral type, and mixed type.Results:A total of 115 silicosis patients with PMF were enrolled, with 85 (73.91%) having different types of pulmonary dysfunction, including 36 cases (31.30%) in the obstructive ventilation dysfunction group, 9 cases (7.83%) in the restrictive ventilation dysfunction group and 40 cases (34.78%) in the mixed ventilation dysfunction group. As for the location of the large opacity, 41 cases (35.65%) were central type, 52 cases (45.22%) were peripheral type, and 22 cases (19.13%) were mixed type. Logistic regression analysis showed that the central large opacity and grade 3-4 emphysema were risk factors for obstructive ventilation dysfunction ( OR=52.179, 5.500, P<0.05) , class C large opacity was the risk factor for restrictive ventilation dysfunction ( OR=33.146, P<0.05) , class B, class C large opacity and central large opacity were the risk factors for mixed ventilation dysfunction ( OR=6.414, 11.561, 19.600, P<0.05) . Conclusion:In silicosis patients with PMF, the incidence rate of pulmonary ventilation dysfunction is higher, mainly obstructive and mixed ventilation dysfunction. The area and location of large opacity are associated with the incidence and types of pulmonary ventilation dysfunction.
