TY - JOUR T1 - Plasma surfactant protein D (SP-D) in patients (pts) with stable (S) COPD and during COPD acute exacerbation (AE) JF - European Respiratory Journal JO - Eur Respir J VL - 42 IS - Suppl 57 SP - P2175 AU - Tetyana Pertseva AU - Kateryna Gashynova AU - Olena Bratus AU - Natalya Petrik Y1 - 2013/09/01 UR - http://erj.ersjournals.com/content/42/Suppl_57/P2175.abstract N2 - Aim: To evaluate plasma SP-D in pts with S COPD and during AE COPD in comparison with healthy control.Study population: 44 pts with S COPD, 12 pts with AE COPD and 26 healthy persons made the study sample.Methods: Medical history, SP-D in plasma by ELISA (Hycult Biotech, Netherlands), Spirometry by Masterscope (Viasis, Germany) were performed in all study population.Results: SP-D levels in groups are shown in the table 1.View this table:Conclusions:1. Both S and AE COPD pts have significantly higher plasma SP-D level, than healthy control.2. Tendency to increasing of plasma SP-D was found in pts with AE COPD in comparison with S COPD. However this difference was not statistically significant.3. Probably, plasma SP-D more likely reflects chronic lung inflammation, than acute injury in pts with COPD. ER -
