Blood eosinophil level and lung function trajectories: cross-sectional and longitudinal studies in European cohorts
BACKGROUND: Elevated blood eosinophils have been associated with lower lung function and are believed to be associated with accelerated lung function decline. METHOD: Blood eosinophils were measured in four cohorts: <45 years cohort within the Vlagtwedde–Vlaardingen (V&V) study, the Uppsala c...

description | BACKGROUND: Elevated blood eosinophils have been associated with lower lung function and are believed to be associated with accelerated lung function decline. METHOD: Blood eosinophils were measured in four cohorts: <45 years cohort within the Vlagtwedde–Vlaardingen (V&V) study, the Uppsala cohort of the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS-Uppsala; <45 years), ≥45 years cohort within the V&V study, and the Rotterdam study (≥45 years). Blood eosinophils at baseline were classified as normal (<300 cells·μL(−1)) or elevated (≥300 cells·μL(−1)). Lung function was measured at baseline and follow-up with spirometry: forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV(1)), vital capacity (VC) and their ratio FEV(1)/VC. The association between blood eosinophils and lung function was tested cross-sectionally using linear regression and longitudinally using a mixed model, both adjusted for age, sex, height, pack-years smoking and smoking status. Stratified analyses were done for asthma. RESULTS: Elevated blood eosinophils were associated with lower FEV(1) (regression coefficient −147 mL (95% CI −188 to −105 mL)), VC (−120 mL (−165 to −75 mL)) and FEV(1)/VC (−1.3% (−1.9% to −0.6%)) at baseline in the two <45 years cohorts, and with lower FEV(1) (−70 mL (−112 to −27 mL)) and FEV(1)/VC (−1.8% (−2.6% to −1.0%)) in the two ≥45 years cohorts. Elevated blood eosinophils were associated with an accelerated decline in FEV(1) (−5.5 mL·year(−1) (95% CI −10.5 to −0.5 mL·year(−1))) and VC (−6.4 mL·year(−1) (−11.26 to −1.5 mL·year(−1))) compared to normal blood eosinophils in the younger asthmatic subjects in the longitudinal studies. CONCLUSION: Elevated blood eosinophils are associated with lower lung function in the general population and with an accelerated lung function decline among asthmatic individuals. |
