Countermeasures are necessary because some patients with NTM-PD disease have depressive symptoms.
2
These results suggested that anti-IFN-γ antibody induced an incurable NTM infection.
3
Eligible studies compared populations with and without pulmonary NTM disease in high-income jurisdictions.
4
NTM infection was diagnosed by skin biopsy although no organism could be identified.
5
We also compared the characteristics of CWP patients between the MTB and NTM infection groups.
6
This therapy might be useful against severe NTM infections.
7
Interventions that target at these conserved sections may be valuable as anti-NTM or anti-TB therapies.
8
NTM because of my kid brother, because I was too young to listen to this.
9
Understanding the cell-cell interactions and cytokines involved in NTM infections will lead to new therapeutic approaches.
10
NTM is a chronic infection and inflammation that leads to progressive irreversible loss of lung function.
11
Rates of culture for NTM were also high.
12
From these data, we visualised the relative distribution of the different NTM found per continent and per country.
13
Populations with pulmonary NTM reported significantly worse or similar HRQOL than the general population, depending on the instruments used.
14
Most disseminated NTM infections usually occur in severe immune-compromised patients, such as HIV infection or after organ transplant patients.
15
These results demonstrate the features of pulmonary mycobacterial infections with a predominance of NTM in CWP patients in South Korea.
16
These differences in species distribution may partly determine the frequency and manifestations of pulmonary NTM disease in each geographical location.
