dc.description.abstractBackground This study seeks to investigate the distribution of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene polymorphism and serum levels in patients with viral pneumonia and predict which polymorphism will lead to severe progression of the disease. Methodology The serum ACE levels and ACE gene polymorphisms were successfully evaluated with respect to subsequent viral pneumonia using records of 100 patients with viral pneumonia and 100 healthy controls. Results ACE serum concentration was statistically significantly elevated. ACE serum concentration with a cut-off value of >= 5,256.05 pg/mL had 85.3% sensitivity and 83.2% selectivity. In addition, patients with ACE genotype D/D were 0.08 times more likely to manifest severe lung involvement than those with I/I, and patients with the I/D genotype were 0.02 times more likely than their counterparts with I/I. The computed tomography findings of the patients revealed that ACE serum concentration was significantly effective in discriminating between mild and moderate-to-severe lung involvement. No significant difference was observed between the blood parameters and ACE genotype distributions. Conclusions I/D polymorphism likely affects the expression of the ACE gene and/or the function of the angiotensin I converting enzyme. The D/D genotype is associated with vessel wall thickness and higher blood pressure. Strong evidence was found between D/D and I/D genotypes in the patient cohort concerning genotypes and ACE serum concentration. Further analysis showed that ACE serum levels were more elevated in the D/D genotype compared to the I/D genotype in the patient cohort.en_US
