- Abstract
- Background
Although preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) has been determined to have poor prognosis, it is a heterogeneous state, and studies regarding its prognosis in Asians are limited. This study investigated the long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality of patients with PRISm compared with those of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and normal individuals in the Korean middle-aged general population.
Methods
Participants were recruited between 2001 and 2002 from a community-based prospective cohort in South Korea. Mortality data were collected over a 16.5-year mean follow-up period. The all-cause and cardiovascular mortality risks of PRISm were compared between patients with COPD and healthy controls.
Results
The PRISm group had a mean age of 53.4 years and mean body mass index of 24.9kg/m2; furthermore, 55.2% of the PRISm patients had never smoked, and the prevalence of comorbidities was not higher than that in the other groups. Compared with normal individuals, PRISm patients did not show increased all-cause mortality, whereas COPD patients showed increased all-cause mortality (PRISm: adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.19; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.85–1.65; COPD: aHR, 1.34, 95% CI, 1.07–1.69). Furthermore, the PRISm patients did not show increased cardiovascular mortality compared with normal individuals (PRISm: aHR, 1.65; 95% CI, 0.92–2.95; COPD: aHR, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.09–3.07).
Conclusion
In our population-based cohort, all-cause and cardiovascular mortality risk did not increase in individuals with PRISm compared with normal individuals. Further studies are needed to distinguish a lower-risk subgroup of PRISm with certain characteristics, such as middle-aged, light-smoking Asians without additional cardiovascular risk.
