Abstrakt: Introduction: Chronic Bronchitis (CB) represents a phenotype of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). While several definitions have been used for diagnosis, the relationship between clinical definitions and radiologic assessment of bronchial disease (BD) has not been well studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between three clinical definitions of CB and radiographic findings of BD in spirometry-defined COPD patients.
Methods: A cross-sectional analysis was performed from a COPD phenotyping study. It was a prospective observational cohort. Participants had spirometry-defined COPD and available chest CT imaging. Comparison between CB definitions, Medical Research Council (CB MRC ), St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (CB SGRQ ), COPD Assessment Test (CB CAT ) and CT findings were performed using Cohen's Kappa, univariate and multivariate logistic regressions.
Results: Of 112 participants, 83 met inclusion criteria. Demographics included age of 70.1 ± 7.0 years old, predominantly male (59.0 %), 45.8 ± 30.8 pack-year history, 21.7 % actively smoking, and mean FEV 1 61.5 ± 21.1 %. With MRC, SGRQ and CAT definitions, 22.9 %, 36.6 % and 28.0 % had CB, respectively. BD was more often present in CB compared to non-CB patients; however, it did not have a statistically significant relationship between any of the CB definitions. CB SGRQ had better agreement with radiographically assessed BD compared to the other two definitions.
Conclusion: Identification of BD on CT was associated with the diagnoses of CB. However, agreement between imaging and definitions were not significant, suggesting radiologic findings of BD and criteria defining CB may not identify the same COPD phenotype. Research to standardize imaging and clinical methods is needed for more objective identification of COPD phenotypes.
