Objective To explore the correlation between the scores of the three respiratory questionnaires and its correlation with the severity of pulmonary ventilation function, and evaluate the role of three existing respiratory questionnaires when assessing the severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung ventilation function impairment. Methods A total of 109 patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were enrolled in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from Apr 7, 2019 to Apr 11, 2020. The demographic situation, clinical symptoms, complications, education level, respiratory questionnaire scores (CAT, mMRC and SGRQ score), lung function parameters, therapeutic drugs were recorded, and the correlation between each index and the 3 respiratory questionnaire scores was analyzed. Results Among 109 patients, 62 patients (56.88%) had mild to moderate COPD (FEV1% pred ≥ 50%)and 47 patients (43.12%) had severe to very severe COPD (FEV1% pred<50%). The correlation analysis showed that there was a good correlation among SGRQ, mMRC and CAT scores (P<0.05). Stratified analysis showed that SGRQ (total score and symptom part score), mMRC and CAT scores could better reflect the level of pulmonary function (FEV1% PRED) (r：0.4-0.5) in patients with severe to very severe COPD, while there was no significant correlation in patients with mild to moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Conclusion The 3 kinds of respiratory questionnaires have good correlation and can be used to evaluate COPD. SGRQ score is of great value in scientific research of respiratory diseases. CAT score is more focused on clinical use, which is convenient and fast. The SGRQ score and CAT score were well correlated with the severe to very severe pulmonary ventilation function impairment.

ObjectiveTo understand the quality of life in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis within three years after treatment， determine its related factors， and make suggestions for improving the short-term quality of life in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis after treatment.MethodsA telephone survey was used to investigate registered tuberculosis patients in Shanghai in 2018 using the short form 12 （SF-12） and the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） assessment test questionnaire （CAT）.ResultsA total of 975 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis who had completed the treatment were included in the study. The total physiological score was determined to be 49.18±10.25， and the total psychological score was 50.27±8.03 （t=5.62，P

Objective To evaluate the incidence and risk factors for anxiety and/or depression in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)，and to explore the correlation between the anxiety depression symptoms and CAT score of patients with COPD；to provide scientific evidence for the negative emotion intervention of COPD patients in the future. Methods　A total of 313 patients with COPD were enrolled in this study from the Second People's Hospital of Jinning District and the First Hospital of Kunming from July 2019 - October 2019. We used the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale ( HADS) and COPD Assessment Test ( CAT) to conduct the questionnaire survey and collect data of the patients，and then use SPSS 24.0 for analysis. Results　Among the 312 patients，COPD patients with anxiety accounted for 49.2% ( 154 cases), COPD with depression accounted for 37.2% (116 cases), COPD with both anxiety and depression accounted for 22.8%(71 cases). COPD patients with anxiety were associated with paying method of medical expenditure, hospitalization frequency, complications and CAT score(P < 0.05), and patients with depression were associated with hospitalization frequency and CAT score (P < 0.05). CAT score and anxiety depression symptoms are interrelated. Conclusion　The prevalence of COPD complicated with anxiety and depression is high. And frequent hospitalization and CAT scores are the high risk factors. The degree of anxiety and depression was positively correlated with the severity of the patient's condition.
