Associations between diabetes mellitus and pulmonary hypertension in chronic respiratory disease patients.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication of chronic respiratory disease. Recent studies have reported diabetes mellitus (DM) to be a poor prognostic factor in patients with chronic respiratory disease, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or interstitial pneumoniae. However, the association between DM and PH in chronic respiratory disease remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether DM is a predictor of PH in patients with chronic respiratory disease. METHODS:We prospectively analyzed 386 patients in our hospital with chronic respiratory disease. An echocardiographic pressure gradient between the right atrium and the right ventricle of ? 40 mmHg was defined as PH. We compared the clinical characteristics and impact of DM between chronic respiratory disease patients with and those without PH. RESULTS:Of the 386 patients, 42 (10.9%) were diagnosed as having PH. The PH group had higher modified medical research council (mMRC) grade and complication rate of DM, but not hypertension and hyperlipidemia, when compared to the non-PH group. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that mMRC scale (odds ratio 1.702, 95% confidence interval, 1.297 to 2.232, P < 0.001) and presence of DM (odd ratio 2.935, 95% confidence interval, 1.505 to 5.725, P = 0.002) were associated with PH in chronic respiratory disease patients. CONCLUSION:DM is potentially associated with PH and is an independent factor for prediction of PH in patients with chronic respiratory disease.

Project description:PurposePulmonary hypertension (PH) is characterized by a progressive remodelling of the pulmonary vasculature resulting in right heart failure and eventually death. The serotonin transporter (SERT) may be involved in the pathogenesis of PH in patients with chronic-obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study investigated for the first time the SERT in vivo availability in the lungs of patients with COPD and PH (COPD+PH).MethodsSERT availability was assessed using SERT-selective [11C]DASB and positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) with dynamic acquisition over 30 min in 4 groups of 5 participants each: COPD, COPD+PH, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and a healthy control (HC). Time activity curves were generated based on a volume of interest within the middle lobe. Tissue-to-blood concentration ratios after 25 to 30 min (TTBR25-30) served as receptor parameter for group comparison and were corrected for lung tissue attenuation. Participants underwent comprehensive pulmonary workup. Statistical analysis included group comparisons and correlation analysis.Results[11C]DASB uptake peak values did not differ among the cohorts after adjusting for lung tissue attenuation, suggesting equal radiotracer delivery. Both the COPD and COPD+PH cohort showed significantly lower TTBR25-30 values after correction for lung attenuation than HC. Attenuation corrected TTBR25-30 values were significantly higher in the COPD+PH cohort than those in the COPD cohort and higher in non-smokers than in smokers. They positively correlated with invasively measured severity of PH and inversely with airflow limitation and emphysema. Considering all COPD patients ± PH, they positively correlated with right heart strain (NT-proBNP).ConclusionBy applying [11C]DASB and PET/CT, semiquantitative measures of SERT availability are demonstrated in the lung vasculature of patients with COPD and/or PH. COPD patients who developed PH show increased pulmonary [11C]DASB uptake compared to COPD patients without PH indicating an implication of pulmonary SERT in the development of PH in COPD patients.

Project description:ObjectiveWhether exercise-induced venous-to-systemic shunt (EIS) during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) has different manifestations or characteristics in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) patients remains unknown. We explored the differences in hemodynamics, echocardiography, and prognosis between IPAH and CTEPH patients with and without EIS.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cross-sectional cohort study and included 161 PH patients at Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital. Demographic, echocardiography, pulmonary hemodynamic, and CPET variables were compared between patients with and without EIS stratified by IPAH and CTEPH. EIS was determined by CPET. Binary logistic regression analyses were performed to explore independent influencing factors of EIS. Cox survival analysis was used to quantify the impact of EIS on the prognosis of patients.ResultsExercise-induced venous-to-systemic shunt was found in approximately 17.4% of 86 IPAH patients and 20% of 75 CTEPH patients. All-cause mortality occurred in 43 (26.7%) patients during a median follow-up of 6.5 years. Compared with those without EIS, patients with EIS had higher peak end-tidal O2 and lower VO2/VE and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE). Among the IPAH patients, EIS was associated with lower cardiac output, cardiac index, mixed venous oxygen saturation, VO2/VE, and TAPSE and higher VE/VCO2 and right ventricular end-diastolic transverse diameter. Logistic regression analysis indicated that VO2/VE was an independent factor influencing whether IPAH patients developed EIS during CPET. Cox logistic regression indicated that female IPAH patients or IPAH patients with higher VO2/VE and EIS had a better prognosis. Female IPAH patients had better 10-year survival. In IPAH patients without EIS, patients with higher VO2/VE had better 10-year survival. However, compared with CTEPH patients without EIS, those with EIS had similar echocardiographic, hemodynamic, CPET parameter results and 10-year survival.ConclusionExercise-induced venous-to-systemic shunt exhibits different profiles among IPAH and CTEPH patients. Among IPAH patients, those with EIS had worse peak end-tidal O2, VO2/VE, and TAPSE than those without EIS. VO2/VE was an independent factor of EIS among IPAH patients. IPAH patients with EIS, female sex or higher VO2/VE had better survival. However, the association between EIS and PAH severity or prognosis in CTEPH patients needs to be further explored.
