Fracción gamma del proteinograma y agudizaciones de la enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica

Abstract

Resumen Objetivos Se pretende evaluar los niveles de la fraccion de gammaglobulinas en suero como un marcador biologico para valorar la gravedad y predecir la mortalidad y nuevas agudizaciones en los pacientes ingresados por una agudizacion de la EPOC. Pacientes y metodos El estudio VIRAE es una cohorte de pacientes ingresados por una agudizacion de probable causa infecciosa de la EPOC en un periodo de 2 anos. Se analizaron los niveles de la fraccion de gammaglobulinas del proteinograma en 120 pacientes. Se evaluaron los principales indicadores clinicos de gravedad. Se compararon las caracteristicas principales en 2 grupos (mayor o menor de 6,6 g/dl de la fraccion gamma del proteinograma). Resultados Los niveles de la fraccion gamma del proteinograma se correlacionan con el valor del FEV 1 (p = 0,009), la PCR (p = 0,04) y el numero de reingresos a los 6 meses de la hospitalizacion (p = 0,04). Se demuestra una buena asociacion con la escala GOLD, el indice BODE y la escala de disnea de mMRC; y tambien con el tratamiento con corticoides orales y la oxigenoterapia domiciliaria. No hemos observado que sea un buen predictor de mortalidad, aun observando una mayor mortalidad al ano del ingreso hospitalario en los pacientes con niveles bajos. Conclusiones Los niveles de la fraccion de gammaglobulinas en el proteinograma tienen una buena correlacion con el FEV 1 . Ademas, se asocian a una mayor gravedad de los pacientes con EPOC. Este biomarcador sencillo puede ser util para identificar pacientes de alto riesgo.
