Characteristics of subclinical tuberculosis compared to active symptomatic tuberculosis using nationwide registry cohort in Korea
Objective The clinical manifestations of tuberculosis (TB) range from asymptomatic to disseminated depending on the microbiological and immunological status, making the diagnosis challenging. To improve our understanding of the disease progression mechanism, we aimed to identify the characteristics of subclinical TB and important predictors of symptom development. Methods From July 2018 to June 2019, we systemically collected data from the Nation…
Effects of underweight and overweight on mortality in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis
Background: Poor nutrition increases disease severity and mortality in patients with tuberculosis (TB).
