Abstract
The purpose of the study
was to assess the associations of proteins of pulmonary surfactants A
(SP-A) and D (SP-D) with the severity of community-acquired pneumonia.
Material and methods. A survey of 188 patients diagnosed with
community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The average age of the examined
patients was 54.3 ± 16.5 years (M ± SD). In 102 patients (54.3 %) severe
CAP was verified. All patients underwent clinical, functional,
diagnostic and laboratory studies. Results and discussion. It was
determined that SP-A and SP-D content was significantly higher in
patients with severe CAP compared to patients with a mild course of this
disease. The direct association of severe CAP with an elevated SP-AP
level, directly associated with an increase in the concentration of
C-reactive protein in the blood and erythrocyte sedimentation rate, have
been confirmed in early studies. Using partial correlation analysis, it
was established that the severe course of CAP is directly related to
SP-A ( r = 0.221; p = 0.003) and SP-D content ( r = 0.262; p < 0.001)
regardless of age, smoking, and body weight. Thus, direct associations
of SP-A and SP-D with a severe course of CAP reflect the high
pathogenetic significance of these protective factors in infectious lung
damage.
