There is concern about the potential deleterious effect on gas exchange of drugs approved for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in patients with lung disease. We conducted a systematic review on the effects of drugs approved for PAH on arterial oxygenation in randomised clinical trials (RCTs) conducted in patients with PH associated with lung disease.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Five databases were searched until May 2025. We included RCTs with PAH therapies in patients with PH associated with lung disease that reported measurements of arterial oxygenation, either the partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO<sub>2</sub>) or the arterial oxygen saturation (SpO<sub>2</sub>). For analysis purposes, both measurements were merged into one single variable called 'overall oxygenation'. As secondary outcomes, we analysed the use of supplemental oxygen and the presence of adverse events related to oxygenation.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Of the 393 reports returned by the initial search, nine articles, reporting 827 patients (64.6% male), were included. The overall oxygenation at the end of the trial in the intervention group (IG), treated with a PAH therapy, was similar to the control group (standard mean difference (SMD) -0.00; 95% CI -0.17 to 0.18; p=0.98). Similarly, the change in overall oxygenation postintervention in the IG was similar to the control group (SMD 0.01; 95% CI -0.22 to 0.24; p=0.91). Reported adverse events related to oxygenation were similar in the treatment and control arms.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>There is currently no consistent evidence from RCTs to suggest a deleterious effect of PAH therapies on arterial oxygenation in patients with PH associated with lung disease.</p><p><strong>Prospero registration number: </strong>CRD42022349299.</p>","PeriodicalId":9048,"journal":{"name":"BMJ Open Respiratory Research","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12519707/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145273702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since only around half of AECOPD are bacterial, and sputum colour correlates with bacterial load, it may help guide antibiotic use. This pragmatic randomised controlled trial (RCT) assessed the safety and effectiveness of using a sputum colour chart in UK primary care.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The multicentre RCT, Colour COPD randomised COPD adults who had ≥2 AECOPD or ≥1 AECOPD hospital admission in the preceding year. The primary objective was to assess the non-inferiority of the Bronkotest sputum colour chart compared with usual care, with hospital admission for AECOPD at 12 months as the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included second courses of treatment requirement and quality of life (CAT score). Nested substudies examined daily symptoms via e-diaries and sputum culture.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>115 severe COPD patients (global obstructive lung disease(GOLD) D, 54% Medical Research Council (MRC) 4 or 5, CAT score 24) were randomised. A trend towards more hospital admissions (32% vs 16%, relative risk (RR) 1.95 (0.92-4.18)) and increased antibiotic use within 14 days (34% vs 18%, adjusted relative risk (aRR) 1.80 (0.85-3.79)) was seen in the colour chart group. From 38 sputum substudy patients, 57 samples were received (42 stable, 15 during AECOPD), with 30% containing potentially pathogenic bacterium (PPB). Purulent sputum was more frequent in bronchiectasis, independent of disease state (stable vs exacerbation) or PPB presence, suggesting sputum colour alone does not reliably guide antibiotic use.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Under-recruitment precluded definitive conclusions. However, sputum colour is unlikely to be a useful addition to COPD SM in primary care.</p><p><strong>Trial registration number: </strong>The UK's Clinical Study Registry: ISRCTN14955629 (https://doi.org/10.1186/ISRCTN14955629; registration date: 11 Number 2020).</p>","PeriodicalId":9048,"journal":{"name":"BMJ Open Respiratory Research","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12517013/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145273765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
