Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) significantly increases the mortality of the patients with COPD. Guidelines have recommended systemic glucocorticoid as regular treatment. Recently, evidences have shown that systemic glucocorticoid cannot not be benefit to all of the patients with AECOPD. Thus the problem that how the clinicians can screen the patients who can benefit from systemic glucocorticoid needs to be solved urgently.
Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) significantly increases the mortality of the patients with COPD. Guidelines have recommended systemic glucocorticoid as regular treatment. Recently, evidences have shown that systemic glucocorticoid cannot not be benefit to all of the patients with AECOPD. Thus the problem that how the clinicians can screen the patients who can benefit from systemic glucocorticoid needs to be solved urgently. A previous study found that plasma metabolome changed significantly after dexamethasone treatment in health participants. Furthermore, inter-person variability was high and remained uninfluenced by treatment, suggesting the potential of metabolomics for predicting the efficacy and side effects of systemic glucocorticoid. Our previous study found that serum metabolites profile in COPD patients differed from that in controls. Therefore, the investigators hypothesized that metabolome changes in patients with AECOPD may be associated with the efficacy of systemic glucocorticoid. In this study, the investigators will utilize ultraperformance liquid chromatography / mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC-MS) methods for analysis of the metabolites in AECOPD patients and compare the metabolites profiles between patients with systemic glucocorticoid treatment success and treatment failure. The investigators aim to detect the metabolic biomarkers and metabolic pathways which are related to efficacy of systemic glucocorticoid and contribute to the precise treatment of COPD.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Treatment Failure Group | The diagnostic criteria of AECOPD is defined in global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease (GOLD 2016). According to the efficacy of systemic hormone therapy during hospitalization, they were divided into treatment success group and treatment failure group. Definition of systemic glucocorticoid treatment failure during hospitalization is (Reference: Crisafulli E, Torres A, Huerta A, et al. COPD, 2016, 13(1): 82-92): The following occurs from the 2nd to the 7th day after admission Situation: â‘ Need to receive mechanical ventilation treatment or need to be admitted to the ICU due to illness; â‘¡72 hours after the initial anti-infective treatment, clinical signs of infection persist and need to change antibiotic treatment; â‘¢Death from any cause. |

| Treatment Success Group | The diagnostic criteria of AECOPD is defined in global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease (GOLD 2016). According to the efficacy of systemic hormone therapy during hospitalization, they were divided into treatment success group and treatment failure group. The treatment success group was defined as not meeting any of the following conditions for failure of systemic hormone therapy during hospitalization (reference: Crisafulli E, Torres A, Huerta A, et al. COPD, 2016, 13(1): 82-92): â‘ Need to receive mechanical ventilation treatment or need to be admitted to the ICU due to illness; â‘¡72 hours after the initial anti-infective treatment, clinical signs of infection persist and need to change antibiotic treatment; â‘¢Death from any cause. |
