Introduction. The modification of lysine crotonylation (Kcr) is another biological function of histone in addition to modification of lysine acetylation (Kac), which may play a specific regulatory role in diseases. Objectives. This study compared the expression levels of Kcr and proteome between patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) combined with type II respiratory failure (RF) to study the relationship between Kcr, proteome, and COPD. Methods. We tested the Kcr and proteome of COPD combined with type II RF and normal control (NC) using croton acylation enrichment technology and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with high resolution. Results. We found that 32 sites of 23 proteins were upregulated and 914 sites of 295 proteins were downregulated. We performed Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), protein domain, and Gene Ontology (GO) analysis on crotonylated protein. In proteomics research, we found that 190 proteins were upregulated and 151 proteins were downregulated. Among them, 90 proteins were both modified by differentially expressed crotonylation sites and differentially expressed in COPD combined with type II RF and NC. Conclusion. Differentially expressed crotonylation sites may be involved in the development of COPD combined with type II RF. 90 proteins modified by crotonylation and differentially expressed in COPD combined with type II RF can be used as markers for the study of the molecular pathogenesis of COPD combined with type II RF.

Background: The outcome of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease depends upon the partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide This study was aimed to find the role of arterial blood gas parameters during the length of hospital stay among patients admitted for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseasewith acute exacerbation. Materials and Methods: This was an observational study conducted in KIST Medical College Teaching Hospital from February 2017 to August 2019. Patients admitted with the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were evaluated. Demographic data as well as oxygen saturation (SPO2), pulmonary function test, and arterial blood gas analysis were recorded and analyzed. Results: Among 112 patients, the female to male ratio was 1.38: 1 with 84.8% over 60 years of age. One-third of patients (n=38) had exposure to both tobacco smoking and biomass and of them, 86.8% were females. Mean SpO2 was 75.9% and mean FEV1 was 0.92 L (SD=0.295) and significant association was found (p<0.001) between them. Furthermore, 70 (62.5%) patients had type I respiratory failure and 42 patients (37.5%) had type II respiratory failure. Patients with type II respiratory failure and hypercapnic patients had prolonged hospital stay with significant p-value (p<0.001). Similarly, significance was observed in the p-value for acidic blood pH, which was <0.05. Conclusions: Increased length of hospital stay is seen in patients with acute exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease with type II respiratory failure. Hence, aggressive early management to correct hypercapnia may lead to decreased hospital stay along with a better outcome. Thus hypercapnia should be considered as one of the important criteria to flag the patient and manage accordingly.

Abstract Introduction: The outcome of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease depends upon the partial pressure of oxygen and carbon dioxide This study was aimed to find the role of arterial blood gas parameters during the length of hospital stay among patients admitted for COPD with acute exacerbation. Materials and Methods: This was an observational study conducted in KIST Medical College Teaching Hospital from February 2017 to August 2019. Patients admitted with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were evaluated. Demographic data as well as SPO2, pulmonary function test, and arterial blood gas analysis were recorded and analyzed. Results: Among 112 patients, the female to male ratio was 1.38: 1 with 84.8% over 60 years of age. One-third of patients (n = 38) had exposure to both tobacco smoking and biomass and of them, 86.8% were females. Mean SpO2 was 75.9% and mean FEV1 was 0.92 L (SD = 0.295) and significant association was found (p < 0.001) between them. Furthermore, 70 (62.5%) patients had type I respiratory failure and 42 patients (37.5%) had type II respiratory failure. Patients with type II respiratory failure and hypercapnic patients had prolonged hospital stay with significant p-value (p < 0.001). Similarly, significance was observed in the p-value for blood pH, which was < 0.05. Conclusions: Increased length of hospital stay is seen in patients with AECOPD with type II respiratory failure. Hence, aggressive early management to correct hypercapnia may lead to decreased hospital stay along with a better outcome. Thus hypercapnia should be considered as one of the important criteria to flag the patient and manage accordingly.
