Objective To research the changes of cytokines in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease( COPD) patient with lung-qi deficiency pattern and lung-yin deficiency pattern during remission stage. Methods Fifty COPD patients with lung-qi deficiency pattern and fifty COPD patients with lung-yin deficiency pattern were collected. Fifty healthy persons were selected as the control group. The levels of interleukin-8(IL-8)
interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) were detected. Results The levels of IL-1β
IL-8 and TNF-α in both groups of COPD patients were significantly higher than those in the control group( P < 0. 05)
especially in COPD patients with lung-yin deficiency pattern(P < 0. 05). Conclusion There is difference between COPD patients with lung-qi deficiency pattern and COPD patients with lung-yin deficiency pattern
