Serum lactate dehydrogenase is associated with impaired lung function: NHANES 2011-2012.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Serum lactate dehydrogenase levels reflect disease status in a variety of organs, but its role in indicating pulmonary function is not yet clear. Therefore, this study explored the correlation between pulmonary function and serum lactate dehydrogenase, and investigated thresholds for changes in pulmonary function indicators in the total population as well as in different strata of the population.

Methods

Based on data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2012 (n = 3453), univariate and stratified analyses were performed to investigate factors associated with pulmonary function, and multiple regression analysis was used to further investigate the specific relationship with serum lactate dehydrogenase.
