Determinants of the lost to follow-up status among patients with tuberculosis who emigrated to the Republic of Korea
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global health concern, with foreign migrants in the Republic of Korea (ROK) representing a particularly vulnerable group; despite comprising only 3.5% of the population, they account for over 5% of annual TB cases and exhibit disproportionately high rates of lost to follow up (LTFU) from treatment compared to native Koreans. This mixed-methods study aimed to identify key factors influencing no…
Identifying Predictors of Unfavorable Treatment Outcomes in Tuberculosis Patients
Our study identified several factors contributing to unfavorable treatment outcomes in tuberculosis patients, including male patients, foreign residents in Korea, drug-resistant TB, retreatment patients, frequent hospital switching, multiple underlying diseases, and current smoking status. These research findings could inform the development of efficient management strategies and policies for improving the treatment success rate among patients wi…
Risk of loss to follow-up among tuberculosis patients in South Korea
Introduction: In South Korea, public-private mix (PPM) has been a key strategy in national tuberculosis (TB) control program. This study aimed to identify rate of loss to follow-up (LTFU) among TB patients in nationwide PPM institutions and their risk factors. Methods: A nationwide prospective observational study including drug susceptible TB patients diagnosed from the 1st day to the 10th day of every month between July 2018 and December 2020 in…
Dose–Response Relationship between Environmental Exposure to Nickel and Pulmonary Function in the Korean General Population Aged 40 or Older
Nickel is a well-known skin allergen; however, few studies to date have investigated the association between nickel exposure and lung function impairment. The present study, therefore, evaluated the relationship between blood nickel concentrations and lung function profiles in the Korean general population ( n = 1,098). Dose-response relationships between blood nickel quartiles and pulmonary function were assessed by sex in multivariate models, a…
