Rapid Lung Function Decline in Smokers Is a Risk Factor for COPD and Is Attenuated by Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor Use

Abstract: Ever smokers with a rapid decline in FEV1 are at higher risk for COPD. Use of ACE inhibitors by smokers may protect against this rapid decline and the progression to COPD.

“…Reduced pulmonary vein area has been described in individuals with established COPD suggesting an "upstream" obstruction to blood flow as the cause of reduced LV preload (32). Our findings indicate that the development of an under-filled left heart occurs concurrent with the decline in lung (33,34). These findings along with our finding that the association of change in lung function and structural changes in the heart occurs independent of BMI show that the link between metabolic syndrome, hypertension, and lung function changes extends beyond the idea of obesity causing restrictive lung physiology through mechanical effects on chest wall compliance.…”

“…In addition to using z scores, we also used threshold values previously reported in the literature to classify the decline in FEV 1 as "rapid" if the annualized average decline was at least 40 ml per year and "normal" if the annualized average decline was less than 40 ml per year. 14,25 We performed a combined analysis of 1622 participants in the FOC and 1242 participants in the CCHS who were younger than 40 years of age at baseline and who also underwent spirometry 10 to 27 years after joining their respective cohorts. In the main analysis, we defined normal or low lung function in early adulthood according to baseline FEV 1 (≥80% or <80% of the predicted value).…”
