Abstract

Background: Bordetella pertussis has been suggested to take part in the acute exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). The aim of this study was to investigate the association between B. pertussis and COPD. Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, 90 patients with COPD and 90 age-and sex-matched control subjects were included. Serum samples were tested for anti-B. pertussis IgG and IgA by ELISA. A physician completed a questionnaire including demographic characteristics, habitual history and spirometric findings for each patient. Results: Of 90 patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, 66 (51%) had mild, 31 (34. 4%) had moderate, and 13 (14. 4%) had severe disease. There was no significant association between B. pertussis IgA seropositivity and COPD. Serum levels of anti-B. pertussis IgG were significantly higher in patients with COPD than in the control subjects (P < 0. 001). No association was observed between B. pertussis infection and severity of COPD. Conclusion: The results suggest that there is an association between B. pertussis infection and COPD. Further studies should be planned to investigate the potential pathogenic mechanisms underlying these associations.
