摘要

Background: Identifying markers for predicting the course and outcome of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains important. The relative pulmonary artery enlargement to aorta ratio (PA-A ratio), which is measured using computed tomography (CT), is a reported predictor for COPD exacerbation and mortality. However, little is known about the implications of the PA-A ratio in patients with mild COPD. Methods: We investigated the utility of the PA-A ratio as a biomarker in patients with relatively mild COPD. A total of 131 patients with mild to moderate COPD [post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) 61.6±6.4, mean post-bronchodilator FEV1 83%±17.8% of predicted value] were selected from a Korean COPD cohort (from 2012 until the end of 2014) and analyzed retrospectively. We determined the correlation between the PA-A ratio and clinical parameters using a linear regression model. Results: The COPD assessment test (P=0.04), FEV1 (P=0.03), and a history of exacerbation in the last year (P=0.03) were significant factors in the univariate linear regression analysis. Post-bronchodilator FEV1 was most significantly associated with the PA-A ratio in the multivariate analysis (P=0.01). Conclusions: The PA-A ratio evaluated by CT imaging was independently correlated with a representative pulmonary function factor (FEV1) in patients with relatively mild COPD. The results suggest that the PA-A ratio may be an important biomarker for clinical outcome in patients with mild COPD.
