[Retrospective analysis of silicosis complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].

Objective: To explore the related risk factors of silicosis complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) , so as to provide ideas for formulating relevant prevention and treatment measures. Methods: In August 2020, 135 silicosis patients hospitalized in the pneumoconiosis Department of Beidaihe rehabilitation hospital of the emergency management department from August 2019 to July 2020 were selected as the research object. The clinical data of the patients were collected. According to whether they were complicated with COPD, they were divided into Silicosis group (74 cases) and silicosis complicated with COPD group (61 cases) . The physical activity level of the patients was investigated with the international physical activity scale (IPAQ) . Results: Compared with Silicosis group, silicosis complicated with COPD group had higher body mass index (BMI) , current smoking, previous smoking, pneumoconiosis grade Ⅱ, pneumoconiosis grade Ⅲ, insufficient physical activity, family history of respiratory diseases and abnormal C-reactive protein (CRP) (P0.05) . Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking, family history of respiratory diseases and abnormal CRP were the risk factors of silicosis complicated with COPD (OR=4.704, 2.516, 4.445, P<0.05) . Conclusion: Now smoking, family history of respiratory diseases and abnormal CRP are the possible influencing factors of silicosis complicated with COPD.
