Abstract

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death worldwide. Most of these deaths are related to cardiovascular disease. This is due to systemic inflammation that causes increased vascular stiffness and hypertension. These comorbidities lead to poor quality of life, low exercise tolerance, and an increased risk of hospitalization. This study aims to report the proportion of hypertension among stable COPD patients in the Indonesian population.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the National Respiratory Center Persahabatan Hospital between February and March 2023. Stable COPD patients admitted to the Asthma and COPD Polyclinic who met the criteria were enrolled. Clinical information, vital signs, spirometry results, and DLCO measurements were collected.Results: There were 84 subjects participating in this study. The result of this study shows a 60.7% proportion of hypertension in stable COPD patients. Hypertension has a significant correlation with pulmonary functional values (P=0.021), severity degree of clinical COPD (P=0.004), Brinkman index (P=0.008), and age (P=0.0001). However, hypertension association with COPD duration (P=0.505) and DLCO (P=0.122) were not significant.Conclusion: The hypertension proportion in stable COPD Indonesian patients is 60.7%. Hypertension shows a significant association with pulmonary function values, severity degree of clinical COPD, Brinkman index, and age.

Abstract

Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) are radiological findings on chest computed tomography (CT) scans that occupy more than 5% of the lung area across upper, middle, and lower lung fields. Interstitial lung abnormalities manifest through several imaging features, including ground-glass opacities (GGO), reticular patterns, diffuse centrilobular nodules, non-emphysematous cysts, honeycombing, and traction bronchiectasis, while emphysema is excluded from its definition. Although global prevalence data for ILA are limited, epidemiological studies report a prevalence ranging from 3% to 10% in various populations. The ILA shares a similar pathological pathway with ILD. Histologically, the structural alterations are caused by a series of inflammations in the parenchyma, the part of the lung that is involved in gas exchange (bronchioles, alveolar ducts, and alveoli). Numerous proteins and pro-fibrotic components reside in this compartment. Connective tissue builds up because of these proteins' recurrent activation cycles. Identified risk factors for developing ILA include advanced age, cigarette smoking, exposure to inhaled substances such as dust and air pollution, and genetic predispositions. The ILA is further categorized into three subtypes: non-subpleural, nonfibrotic subpleural, and fibrotic subpleural, which reflect different radiological characteristics. Currently, there is no definitive treatment for ILA, and management strategies primarily involve clinical assessment, regular radiological follow-ups, and control of risk factors to mitigate disease progression. Given the potential implications of ILA on respiratory health, ongoing research is essential to elucidate its natural history and inform future therapeutic approaches.

Abstract

Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) are a group of diseases that involve damage in the interstitial tissue, causing diffusion disorders which ultimately lead to hypoxemia. One of the conditions that aggravate hypoxemia in ILD patients is acute exacerbation. Acute exacerbation is a condition of deterioration of ILD that can occur in less than 1 month. During an acute exacerbation, there will be a worsening of the HRCT pattern with increased ground glass opacities and a worsening of the clinical picture including hypoxemia. Acute exacerbations are closely related to increased mortality rates. Oxygen administration is one of the supportive therapies that can be given to acute exacerbations. The provision of oxygen therapy is adjusted to the patient's needs using a high-flow nasal cannula, non-invasive ventilation, invasive mechanical ventilation, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Abstract

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) is a group of lung diseases characterized by various patterns of lung tissue damage, including inflammation and fibrosis of the lung interstitium, both with known or unknown causes (idiopathic). In establishing the diagnosis of ILD, a comprehensive approach including history-taking, physical examination, and supporting examinations, is needed and managed in a multidisciplinary manner. Biomarkers are diagnostic tools known to be accessible, inexpensive, reproducible, and non-invasive for helping diagnose ILD patients. Growing evidence has supported the idea that many biomarker molecules can detect lung injury in ILD, including Krebs von de lungen-6 (KL-6) and Surfactant D (SP-D). KL-6 and SP-D could be utilized in the detection, disease monitoring, prognostication, and therapeutic responses of ILD patients. This review aimed to discuss several potential Kl-6 and SP-D biomarkers against ILD and discusses their clinical utility.
