Comparison of Complete Blood Counts of Stable COPD Patients at Two Different Altitude in Turkey

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate how altitude difference affects complete blood count (CBC) in patients with stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Methods: Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Pulmonology, Kars Harakani State...

description Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate how altitude difference affects complete blood count (CBC) in patients with stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Methods: Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Pulmonology, Kars Harakani State Hospital (Group 1) and Samsun Chest Diseases and Thoracic Surgery Hospital (Group 2), Turkey, from March to September 2018. A total of 400 patients (200 female, 200 male) with stable COPD were included. For each group, 100 female and 100 male patients were randomly selected from hospitals. Age, BMI (kg/m2), comorbidity, smoking status, CBC were evaluated. Hemoglobin, hematocrit, WBC, MPV, platelet, lymphocyte count and percentage, platelet/lymphocyte rate (PLR), neutrophil count and percentage, neutrophil/lymphocyte rate (NLR), eosinophil count and percentage, PDW, PCT were recorded. Results: Patients living at high altitude were significantly older, had lower weight and had lower FEV1 levels. COPD stages of Group 1 patients were more severe (p
