Differences in bone density on chest CT according to smoking status in males without chronic obstructive lung disease.

ABSTRACT: The goals of this study were to determine whether bone density measured using CT (CTBD) can show significant differences in bone loss according to smoking status and pack-years, and to examine the correlation between CTBD and bone mineral density when measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA-BMD) in males without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In this cross-sectional study, 1,011 males without airflow obstruction ?50 years old were included. CTBD and DEXA-BMD were compared among groups with different smoking statuses. The correlation between CTBD and DEXA-BMD and the association of CTBD with pack-years were also investigated. CTBD of all vertebral bodies (VBs) and DEXA-BMD of all VBs without L1 showed significant differences among never, former, and current smokers. CTBD was significantly lowest in ?30-pack-year smokers and was significantly lower in ?30-pack-year smokers than in <15-pack-year smokers (all P?

Project description:Objective: To assess CT features of COVID-19 patients with different smoking status using quantitative and semi-quantitative technologies and to investigate changes of CT features in different disease states between the two groups. Methods: 30 COVID-19 patients with current smoking status (29 men, 1 woman) admitted in our database were enrolled as smoking group and 56 COVID-19 patients without smoking history (24 men, 32 women) admitted during the same period were enrolled as a control group. Twenty-seven smoking cases and 55 control cases reached recovery standard and were discharged. Initial and follow-up CT during hospitalization and follow-up CT after discharge were acquired. Thirty quantitative features, including the ratio of infection volume and visual-assessed interstitial changes score including total score, score of ground glass opacity, consolidation, septal thickening, reticulation and honeycombing sign, were analyzed. Results: Initial CT images of the smoking group showed higher scores of septal thickening [4.5 (0-5) vs. 0 (0-4), p = 0.001] and reticulation [0 (0-5.25) vs 0 (0-0), p = 0.001] as well as higher total score [7 (5-12.25) vs. 6 (5-7), p = 0.008] with statistical significance than in the control group. The score of reticulation was higher in the smoking group than in the control group when discharged [0.89 (0-0) vs. 0.09 (0-0), p = 0.02]. The score of septal thickening tended to be higher in the smoking group than the control group [4 (0-4) vs. 0 (0-4), p = 0.007] after being discharged. Quantitative CT features including infection ratio of whole lung and left lung as well as infection ratio within HU (-750, -300) and within HU (-300, 49) were higher in the control group of initial CT with statistical differences. The infection ratio of whole lung and left lung, infection ratio within HU (-750), and within HU (-750, -300) were higher in the control group with statistical differences when discharged. This trend turned adverse after discharge and the values of quantitative features were generally higher in the smoking group than in the control group without statistical differences. Conclusions: Patients with a history of smoking presented more severe interstitial manifestations and more residual lesion after being discharged. More support should be given for COVID-19 patients with a smoking history during hospitalization and after discharge.
