Immune change in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease when atmospheric temperature is decreased
Objective To study the immune change at low atmospheric temperature in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the effect of immunopotentiators given before the temperature is decreased on the immune of COPD patients. Methods One hundred COPD
patients recruited in this study were randomly divided into baseline group (n=70) and immunopotentiator-treatment group (n=30). IgG
IgA
IgM in blood and CD3
+
CD4
+
CD8
+
CD4
+
/D8
+
in sputum from the two groups were detected respectively at baseline and low temperature. Respiratory infection was recorded during follow-up. Results The level of IgG and IgA was decreased
the number of CD3
+
and CD8
+
was increased while the number of CD4
+
and CD4
+
/CD8
+
was decreased in baseline group at low temperature. (P0.05). The number of CD4
+
/CD8
+
in sputum was negatively related with respiratory infection at normal temperature
but better related with respiratory infection at low temperature
(-0.661 and -0.612 in baseline group
and -0.901 and -0.936 in immunopotentiator-treatment group). No difference was found in immune between baseline group and immunopotentiator-treatment group before and after the atmospheric temperature was changed. However
the respiratory infection rate was significantly lower in immunopotentiator-treatment group than in baseline group(P0.05). Conclusion The immunity of COPD patients decreases with the decreasing atmospheric temperature. Local immune of the airway should be assessed by inducing CD3

CD4

in sputum. Immunopotentiators can increase the body’s immunity but have little effect on local immune of airway.
