Abstract

Objective: To investigate the clinical significance of plasma levels of hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), fibriogen and D-dimmer (D-DI) in patients with connective tissue disease (CTD)-related interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD).

Methods: Sixty-nine patients with interstitial lung disease admitted in Zhujiang Hospital between January, 2010 and April, 2016, including 29 with CTD-ILD and 40 with non-CTD-ILD were analyzed for plasma levels of hs-CRP, fibriogen and D-DI, with 25 healthy subjects as the control group.

Results: The plasma level of hs-CRP, fibriogen and D-DI in patients with CTD-ILD and non-CTD-ILD were all significantly higher than those in the control group. The patients with CTD-ILD had a significantly higher hs-CRP level than those with non-CTD-ILD, but the levels of fibriogen and D-DI were comparable between the two groups. Correlation analysis indicated that Hs-CRP level was positively correlated with the levels of D-DI (r=0.539, P<0.01) and fibrinogen (r=0.534, P<0.01).

Conclusion: Hs-CRP, fibriogen and D-DI levels show an important value in clinical diagnosis of CTD, and an obvious elevation of hs-CRP is correlated with the CTD.

目的: 观察超敏C反应蛋白、纤维蛋白原和D-二聚体在结缔组织病相关间质性肺炎(CTD-ILD)和非结缔组织病相关间质性肺炎(NCTD-ILD)患者血浆中的浓度高低,探究其相关性及临床意义。

方法: 选取2010年1月~2016年4月南方医科大学珠江医院收治的间质性肺炎患者69例,分为CTD-ILD组(30例)和NCTD-ILD组(39例)作为研究对象,同期纳入25例健康人作为对照组,行超敏C反应蛋白、纤维蛋白原和D-二聚体检测。

结果: CTD-ILD组和NCTD-ILD组的超敏C反应蛋白、纤维蛋白原和D-二聚体浓度均高于对照组(P<0.05);CTD-ILD组的超敏C反应蛋白浓度高于NCTD-ILD组(P<0.05),但两组间的纤维蛋白原和D-二聚体浓度无差异;超敏C反应蛋白浓度分别与D-二聚体浓度、纤维蛋白原浓度呈正相关(r分别为0.539、0.534,P<0.01)。

结论: 超敏C反应蛋白、纤维蛋白原和D-二聚体对间质性肺炎的临床诊断有重要意义,超敏C反应蛋白的明显升高与合并结缔组织病相关。
