However, pleuraltuberculosis is usually considered to be a manifestation of primary tuberculosis.
2
In multivariate analyses, patients with pleuraltuberculosis were not significantly associated with clustered strains, compared with patients with nonrespiratory or pulmonary tuberculosis disease.
3
Pleuraltuberculosis is not an appropriate indicator for recent transmission among our population.
1
Patients: Thirty-four patients with lung cancer and 16 patients with tuberculouspleurisy.
2
Patients with lung cancer were found to have significantly higher serum and pleural fluid levels of CEA and CYFRA 21-1 than patients with tuberculouspleurisy.
1
Conventional facilities of a referral hospital are sufficient to diagnose tuberculouspleuritis as well as disseminated tuberculosis irrespective of HIV infection.
2
In a prospective study, we investigated whether human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection alters the clinical presentation in patients with tuberculouspleuritis.
3
Mononuclear cells were isolated from the peripheral blood and pleural fluid of patients with tuberculouspleuritis and stimulated with Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro.
4
We conclude that conventional facilities of a referral hospital are sufficient to diagnose tuberculouspleuritis as well as disseminated tuberculosis irrespective of HIV infection.
