Objective:Using rabbit skin liquefaction model to assess the effects of immunomodulators including recombinant human interferon-γ (rIFN-γ), recombinant human interleukin-2(rIL-2), dexamethasone and cyclophosphamide (CTX) on the development of tuberculosis (TB) lesions and tubercle bacillus load in liquefied caseum, establish essential method for therapeutic agent evaluation and study the mechanisms of tuberculosis liquefaction.Methods:Animals were divided into six [...]
Objective To develop and validate the Quality of Life Instruments for Chronic Diseases-Pulmonary Tuberculosis (QLICD-PT). In addition, the preliminary analysis about quality of life in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and its influence factors was carried out, with minimal clinically important difference (MCID) being established.Methods The General Module of the system of Quality of Life Instruments [...]
Objective Diet nutrition can affect the development and prognosis of tuberculosis, this article analyzes the hemoglobin and lipid levels of TB patients in one region to understand the TB patients nutritional status in one region, surveys the dietary nutrients intake condition of TB patients in order to provide a reasonable scientific basis for diet nutritional [...]
Objective The clinical features of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) may be changed by years, and the relationships of which are different. The clinical features of PTB patients to visit a doctor and relationship of those between age groups were discussed in this study, in order to provide a scientific basis to deepen the understanding of PTB [...]
Objective:To investigate a new way of treatment and manage tuberculosis by the tool of advanced communication. To Provide the theoretical basis for the tuberculosis control and study in the future.Methods:In this study, study sample is obtained by using stratified random sampling method. It was carved up four floors(East, West, North and South) in according togeography [...]
Objective: With the CT examination and treatment in pulmonary tuberculosis in a wide range of applications, in secondary pulmonary tuberculosis patients were found to have a small number of patients mainly appeared lung interstitial abnormalities. The purpose of this project is to summarize and discuss CT and HRCT characteristics of interstitial abnormalities in secondary pulmonary [...]
BackgroundChina is one of the twenty-three countries with high burden of tuberculosis and ranks second in terms of the total number of tuberculosis cases in the world. The incidence and mortality rate of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) cases in Shanghai decreased in recently years, lower than many other regions in China. But it is still a [...]
At present, the annual incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis(TB) is approximately 1.3 million in China, and is NO.2 in the world,amounted to t14.3 percent, the work of pulmonary tuberculosis prevention and control is facing great challenges,because of the severe prevalence. This study is aimed to find the influential factors of pulmonary tuberculosis, and create a reasonable [...]
Objective To study the clinical features and the correlated factors of pulmonary tuberculosis complicated by fungi infection. To improve the understanding of the two disease coexist and to provide the reference for the early stages diagnosis of the disease. The Aims is to deepen our understanding of the disease in such patients, it will play [...]
Background and ObjectPulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is a highly contagious disease caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In recent years, with the rapid development of molecular biology, especially human genomics and proteomics, host susceptibility genes has gained increasing attention in the development of research on tuberculosis.Chemokine is a kind of small molecule secreted protein, which can stimulate [...]
