ABSTRACT

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory pathology with high prevalence, morbidity and mortality. The Spanish COPD guideline (GesEPOC) recommends individualizing treatment according to phenotypes. The phenotype classification was updated in 2021. This study aimed to determine the survival of patients by this new classification and compare the predictive capacity of mortality compared to the previous version. Methods: This observational study of COPD patients involved prospective follow-up for 6 years. Demographic and clinical data were collected at the beginning and evolutionary data at the end of the study. Patients were classified according to GesEPOC 2017 and GesEPOC 2021. Univariate survival analysis and multivariate analysis identified mortality risk factors. Results: Of the 273 patients, 243 (89.0%) were male. Ninety-three patients (34.1%) died during follow-up. Regarding phenotypes, 190 patients (69.6%) were non-exacerbators, 69 (25.3%) belonged to the non-eosinophilic exacerbator phenotype and 14 (5.1%) were of the eosinophilic exacerbator phenotype. Compared with non-exacerbator patients, those with the non-eosinophilic exacerbator phenotype had lower survival (p = 0.009). Risk factors independently associated with mortality were older age (p < 0.001), non-eosinophilic exacerbator phenotype (p = 0.017) and a high Charlson index score (p < 0.001). The new classification presented a worse ability to predict mortality than the previous version (area under the curve 0.632 vs 0.566, p = 0.018). Conclusion: Patients with the non-eosinophilic exacerbator phenotype had worse prognoses. This phenotype, advanced age and high comorbidity were mortality risk factors. The GesEPOC 2021 classification predicts mortality worse than the 2017 version. These data must be considered for more individualized management of COPD patients.


Introducción: La enfermedad obstructiva crónica (EPOC) es una patología respiratoria con elevada prevalencia y alta morbimortalidad. La guía española de la EPOC (GesEPOC) recomienda individualizar el tratamiento según fenotipos. En su última actualización en 2021, se ha actualizado la clasificación de fenotipos. Se realiza este estudio para conocer la supervivencia de los pacientes sobre esta nueva clasificación y para comparar la capacidad predictiva de mortalidad con respecto a la versión previa. Métodos: Estudio observacional de pacientes con EPOC con un seguimiento prospectivo durante 6 años. Se recogieron datos demográficos y clínicos al inicio y datos evolutivos al final del estudio. Se clasificó a los pacientes según GesEPOC 2017 y GesEPOC 2021. Se realizó un análisis univariante de supervivencia y un análisis multivariante para identificar factores de riesgo de mortalidad. Resultados: Del los 273 pacientes, 243 (89,0%) eran varones. Fallecieron 93 sujetos (34,1%) durante el seguimiento. En cuanto a los fenotipos, 190 pacientes (69,6%) eran no agudizadores, 69 (25,3%) pertenecían al fenotipo agudizador no eosinofílico, y 14 (5,1%) eran del fenotipo agudizador eosinofílico. Comparando con los enfermos no agudizadores, los del fenotipo agudizador no eosinofílico tuvieron una menor supervivencia (p = 0,009). Los factores de riesgo independientemente asociados a la mortalidad fueron la edad avanzada (p < 0,001), el fenotipo agudizador no eosinofílico (p = 0,017) y una puntuación elevada en el índice de Charlson (p < 0,001). La nueva clasificación presentó una peor capacidad para predecir mortalidad en comparación con la versión previa (área bajo curva 0,632 vs 0,566, p = 0,018). Conclusión: Los pacientes del fenotipo agudizador no eosinofílico tenían peor pronóstico. Este fenotipo, junto con la edad avanzada y la elevada comorbilidad, fueron factores de riesgo de mortalidad. La clasificación GesEPOC 2021 predice peor la mortalidad con respecto a la versión de 2017. Es importante tener estos datos en cuenta para ofrecer un manejo más individualizado a los pacientes con EPOC.

ABSTRACT

An infected aortic aneurysm is a process with high mortality rate. Survival is dependent on an early diagnosis and surgical management. This case report details a rare presentation of aortitis with persistent methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) bacteremia, which initially presented as retroperitoneal fibrosis and was ultimately fatal.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Describir la relación entre factores pronósticos, individuales o asociados en clasificaciones multidimensionales (BODE y ADO), y la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) de los pacientes con enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC).DISEÑO: Estudio descriptivo transversal. Emplazamiento: Atención primaria. Participantes: Muestreo aleatorizado sistemático de 102 pacientes diagnosticados de EPOC. Excluidos aquellos con exacerbación aguda, demencia, enfermedad terminal o los que reciben atención domiciliaria. Mediciones principales: Datos demográficos, hábito tabáquico, índice de masa corporal y número de exacerbaciones. Comorbilidad. Grado de disnea. Prueba de función respiratoria. Capacidad de ejercicio. El índice BODE y ADO. Cuestionario EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D) y escala visual analógica (EVA). RESULTADOS: En EQ-5D: movilidad, 43,9%; cuidado personal, 13,3%; actividades cotidianas, 29,6%; dolor/malestar, 55,1%; ansiedad/depresión, 37,8%. El 34,7% EVA ≤ 60%. Exacerbaciones: movilidad, OR: 1,85 (IC 95%: 1,08-3,20); cuidado personal, OR: 2,12 (IC 95%: 1,03-4,76); actividades cotidianas, OR: 2,35 (IC 95%: 1,17-4,71); EVA, coeficiente regresión: −3,50 (IC 95%: −6,31- −0,70).
