Abstract:
Objective: To explore the risk factors of primary graft dysfunction (PGD) after lung transplantation and provide a new therapeutic strategy for PGD. Methods: A retrospective analysis of lung transplant patients from January 2014 to July 2017 in Henan Provincial People's Hospital.According to the PGD classification standard established by the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation, the association of potential risk factors with PGD was analyzed by using multivariable Logistic regression. Results: Fourteen of 30 patients (46.7%) developed grade 3 PGD.There was no significantly statistical difference in gender, etiology, duration of anesthesia, amount of blood transfusion, amount of blood transfusion and donor gender(all P>0.05). Body mass index (BMI), donor pulmonary cold ischemia time, duration of operation, extracorporeal membrane lung oxygenator (ECMO), systolic pulmonary arterial pressure and donor smoking history were all higher than those of non-PGD patients (all P<0.05). Independent risk factors for PGD were donor pulmonary cold ischemia time (OR 1.032, 95%CI 1.000-1.065, P=0.048); systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (OR 1.258, 95%CI 0.969-1.632, P=0.007); donor smoking (OR 8.879, 95%CI 1.096-71.913, P=0.041). Conclusion: Donor pulmonary ischemic time, systolic pulmonary arterial pressure and donor smoking history are PGD risk factors, which provide new ideas for PGD treatment.

Regression Analysis
In regression analysis, a regression equation is determined based on the line of best fit– a line that best fits the data points plotted in a graph. This line is also called the regression line. The algebraic equation for the regression line is called the regression equation. It is represented as:
Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...
