Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that exposure to environmental tobacco smoke is associated with a reduction in fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels, elevation eosinophil (EOS) counts and alterations airway inflammation patterns, influencing the efficacy of glucocorticoid therapy for TH2 inflammation. No previous study has investigated association extent FeNO levels. This aimed investigate level EOS count. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we included 12,766...
The diagnosis of active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) remains a challenge in clinic, especially for sputum negative TB. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) has higher sensitivity than detection Mycobacterium (Mtb). However, bronchoscopy is invasive and costly, not suitable all patients. In order to make TB patients get more benefit from BALF diagnosis, we explore which indicator might be used optimize the choice bronchoscopy. A total 1539 sputum-smear-negative suspects who underwent were...
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared Human Monkeypox (mpox) as a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) in July 2022. Due to border quarantine and isolation measures implemented from January 2020 December 2022, Beijing did not report its first locally transmitted case mpox until May 31, 2023, which represented delayed occurrence compared other countries. aim this observational analysis is describe demographical data, symptoms presentation clinical course till...
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major threat to human health, and TB diagnostic methods remain unsatisfactory. Nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) show higher sensitivity compared with culture for the diagnosis of pulmonary (PTB). However, NAATs are expensive cannot be easily implemented outside medical centers. To improve PTB diagnosis, we investigated predictive factors that might optimize NAAT utilization. A total 1263 patients suspected were enrolled evaluation. The sensitivity,...
Abstract Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the primary threatening human health and its diagnosis unsatisfactory in clinic. Nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) showed higher sensitivity than culture for pulmonary TB (PTB). However, NAAT are expensive not easily deployable at peripheral level. To improve PTB diagnosis, predictive factors that might be utilized to give optimized choice were investigated. Methods: A total 1263 suspects enrolled evaluation. The sensitivity,...
