Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with bronchiectasis in Hainan Province, and to summarize the disease characteristics.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study involving 207 hospitalized bronchiectasis patients in the Hainan Hospital of Chinese PLA General Hospital from May 2012 to January 2022.Their final diagnosis recorded in the inpatient medical record information management system were bronchiectasis, bronchial dilation, bronchiectasis with infection, or bronchiectasis with hemoptysis.Chest high-resolution CT image data were available.Baseline characteristics, imaging manifestations, pulmonary function and sputum microbial culture data of the enrolled patients were collected.Clinical symptoms, signs, pulmonary function and sputum microbial detection rate of bronchiectasis patients with varying morphological manifestations (columnar, cystic columnar, cystic) were compared.The detection rate of sputum microorganisms in bronchiectasis patients with different distribution ranges (single lobe involvement and multiple lobes involvement) were compared.Lung function differences between bronchiectasis patients with or without specific bacteria were compared.The results of drug sensitivity test of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were analyzed.Results:A total of 207 cases were recruited, including 110 males (53.14%) and 97 females (46.86%).The mean age was (64.37±13.91) years.The elderly aged 65 years and above accounted for 55.07% (114/207).The mean age of onset was 50.73±19.39 years.History of tuberculosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchial asthma, interstitial pneumonia and immunosuppression due to long-term glucocorticoid treatment of tumors, leukemia, nephrotic syndrome and other causes was detected in 23.19% (48/207), 21.74% (45/207), 5.80% (12/207), 3.38% (7/207) and 9.66% (20/207) of cases, respectively.The cause of the disease could not be determined in most of patients, and only 15.46% (32/207) had identified causes; 59.38% (19/32) of bronchiectasis patients were caused by pulmonary tuberculosis.The main symptoms were cough (89.37%), expectoration (82.61%), shortness of breath (43.96%) and hemoptysis (30.43%).Cylindrical (47.34%, 98/207), mixed (16.43%, 34/207) and saccular lesions (36.23%, 75/207) were found in imaging examinations; 30.43% (63/207), 69.57% (144/207) and 18.84% (41/207) of patients had the involvement of a single lobe, multiple lobes and all lobes, respectively.Among the involved lung lobes, the right lower lobe accounted for 57.49% (119/207).Seventy-three patients underwent pulmonary function examination during hospitalization, of which 67.12% (49/73), 54.79% (40/73) and 39.73% (29/73) had obstructive ventilatory disorder, restrictive ventilatory disorder, and mixed ventilatory disorder, respectively.According to the imaging classification, there was significant difference in the percentage of forced expiratory volume in the first second to the predicted value (FEV 1%pred) of bronchiectasis patients with cylindrical, saccular and mixed lesions ( F=4.41, P=0.016), while no significant differences were found in the percentage of forced vital capacity in the predicted value (FVC% pred) and the percentage of forced expiratory volume in the first second to the predicted value (FEV 1/FVC)(both P>0.05).A total of 184 sputum samples were collected for microbial culture during hospitalization, and the positive rate was 57.07% (105/184).101 cases (54.89%) were positive for bacteria and 22 cases (11.96%) were positive for fungi.A total of 147 strains of 26 kinds of bacteria were cultured, including 136 strains of 19 Gram-negative bacteria and 11 strains of 7 Gram-positive bacteria.Two or more kinds of bacteria were detected in 34 (18.48%) cases.The bacteria with a high composition included the Pseudomonas aeruginosa 38.10% (56/147), Klebsiella pneumoniae 14.29% (21/147), and Acinetobacter baumannii 11.56% (17/147).The detection rate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in bronchiectasis patients with the involvement of multiple lobes was significantly higher than that in those with single lobe involvement (39.53% [51/129] vs 9.09% [5/55], χ2=19.12, P<0.001).The pulmonary function indexes of bronchiectasis patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection were significantly lower than those without Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Bronchiectasis is common in the elderly in Hainan Province, and the etiology is unclear.The proportion of patients with previous tuberculosis infection is high.The clinical symptoms are various, and most of the pulmonary functions have obstructive ventilatory disorder.The imaging features mainly include cylindrical bronchiectasis and the involvement of multiple lobes.The detection rate of Gram-negative bacteria in sputum samples is high, and the detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is associated with lung dysfunction.
The incidence and prevalence of bronchiectasis have increased significantly in recent years.However, the pathogenesis and aggravation mechanism of bronchiectasis has not been fully elucidated.Some studies show that the composition and abundance change of pulmonary microbiome is one of the most important reasons for the aggravation of bronchiectasis.Therefore, it has attracted wide attention.There are many kinds of microbial colonization in the lung of patients with bronchiectasis.The core bacterial colonization varies from patients to patients.The colonization of core bacteria represented by Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an independent risk factor for the decline of lung function and increase of exacerbation frequency in patients with bronchiectasis.This article reviews the changes of pulmonary microbiome in stable and aggravated bronchiectasis, so as to provide guidance to the treatment of bronchiectasis.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the inpatient pulmonary hypertension (PH) surveillance in a single center of cardiovascular hospital during last ten years.METHODS:In this retrospective analysis, data from patients with discharge diagnosis as PH from Jan. 1996 to Dec. 2005 were collected.RESULTS:A total of 7085 out of 106 640 patients (6.63%) were documented as PH during the survey period and 3.77% PH was idiopathic, 65.93% PH originated from congenital heart diseases, 22.61% from left heart diseases, 5.66% from thrombotic diseases, 0.89% from respiratory diseases, 0.61% from connective tissue diseases, 0.51% from pulmonary vasculitis and 0.03% from portal hypertensive diseases. Both total inpatient number and patients with PH increased year by year during the last 10 years in our hospital. The number of in-hospital patients with PH was significantly higher in 2004 - 2005 than that in 1996 - 2003 (P < 0.0001) and more PH was originated from cardiomyopathy and valvular heart diseases. Idiopathic pulmonary hypertension also tended to increase and PH due to congenital heart diseases was significantly reduced during 2004 - 2005.CONCLUSION:The data from a single center of cardiovascular hospital shows a tendency for increased in-hospital prevalence of pulmonary hypertension during the last ten years.
肺动脉高压(pulmonary artery hypertension,PAH)是不同病因导致的、以肺动脉压力和肺血管阻力升高为特点的一组病理生理综合征。美国国立卫生研究院(national institutesof health,NIH)将 PAH 定义为:平均肺动脉压力在静息状态下大于25mm Hg(1mm Hg=0.133kPa),在运动状态下大于30mm Hg,而肺毛细血管压或者左心房压力小于15mm Hg。PAH 已经成为一个重要的医疗保健问题,NIH 对194例特发性 PAH 患者的统计,平均生存期仅为2.8年,1、3与5年的生存率分别为68%、48%和34%,与恶性肿瘤相仿。然而目前尚无根治的方法,病因和发病机制研究是实现有效防治的惟一途径,也是目前 PAH 研究的热点和难点。近年来在PAH 的发病机制研究方面取得的最重要的进展之一就是发
