This study aimed to investigate the relationship between endogenous H2S and pulmonary vascular remodeling on HRCT in patients with COPD through the determination of H2S and its synthase mRNA levels in blood and pulmonary vessels by HRCT, to evaluate the role of H2S in pulmonary vascular remodeling in COPD and to provide a basis for seeking new therapeutic targets. This study had predictive value for clinical prognosis of patients. It had important clinical guiding significance and social and economic benefit to comprehensively understand the pathogenesis of COPD.
