FEATURES OF CLINICAL-FUNCTIONAL MANIFESTATIONS OF CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE LUNG DISEASE IN COMBINATION WITH METABOLIC
Aim:
Studying features of clinical-functional manifestations of chronic obstructive lung disease in the combination with metabolic syndrome in the Yakut ethnic group.
Materials And Methods:
The basic group consisted of 39 patients of Yakut nationality with chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD) in the combination with metabolic syndrome (MS), middle age of them being 53.4 ± 1.17 years. The comparison group comprised 40 patients of Russian nationality with COLD and MS with middle age 53.1 ± 1.21 years. Features of clinical manifestations and respiratory functions are studied.
Results:
Cough and sputum were noted in dynamics for 3 years by 64.1% of Yakut patients and 85% of the Russians, p = 0.033; the intensity of cough was marked at 30% of patients of Russian nationality and 15.4% of patients of the Yakut nationality, p = 0.01 6. The morning sputum and daily sputum within 3 months a year at the Russians in comparison with the Yakuts was marked in 95 % vs 74,4 %, p = 0.011; 80.0% vs 56.4% p = 0.024, accordingly. According to Medical Research Council (mMRC) Dyspnea Scale (Mahler et al., 1985) dyspnea has been 2.2 ± 0.09 points atthe Yakuts vs 2.7 ± 0.09 points at Russian, p = 0.002. At patients of the Yakut nationality more often exacerbations were registered 2 times a year (53.8%), at patients of Russian nationality noted 3 times a year (55%). Respiratory function manifestations have been at patients of the Yakut nationality with COLD and MS, in comparison with similar Russian patients: forced expiratory volume for a first second (FEV,) - 64,0+2,30 % vs 56,8?2,69 %, p = 0,026; forced vital capacity of lungs (FVC) - 65,0?2,45 vs 65,0?3,70, p = 0.733; FEV1/FVCL ratio being 102.5 ± 2.81 vs 87.3 ± 3.30, p = 0.000, accordingly.
Conclusions:
Regardless of ethnicity the phenotype "D" has higher prevalence rate of clinical phenotype COLD in the combination with metabolic syndrome, thus at the Russians the clinical COLD is characterized by severe clinical manifestations in comparison with theYakuts, and also in both ethnic groups expiratory dysfunctions in the form of decreasing FEV1, decreasing FVC and increases of ratio FEV1/FVC > 70% are marked.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease-III: Symptoms and Complications.
Symptoms of COPD can be classified as primary or systemic. Primary symptoms relate to reduced airflow, while systemic or extrapulmonary symptoms relate to COPD's broader impact on the body.

COPD: Pathogenesis and Clinical Features
The primary cause for the onset of COPD is cigarette smoking and exposure to air pollution. These hazardous factors initiate a chain reaction within the lungs, resulting in chronic inflammation, damage to the airways, and a...

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Smoking is a primary risk factor for COPD, with over 80% of patients having a history of it. Patients typically experience progressive dyspnea or labored breathing, frequent coughing, and recurrent pulmonary infections. Many eventually succumb to respiratory failure, characterized by...
