Tae Hoon Kim, I Re Heo, Na Young Kim, et al.
Tuberc Respir Dis. 2024;87(2):155-164.   Published online January 16, 2024

Interstitial Lung Disease
Association between Antacid Exposure and Risk of Interstitial Lung Diseases
Soohyun Bae, Gjustina Loloci, Dong Yoon Lee, et al.
Tuberc Respir Dis. 2024;87(2):185-193.   Published online December 19, 2023
Background: The mechanisms leading to lung fibrosis are still under investigation. This study aimed to demonstrate whether antacids could prevent the development of interstitial lung disease (ILD). Methods: This population-based longitudinal cohort study was conducted between January 2006 and December 2010 in South Korea. Eligible subjects were ≥40 years of age, exposed to proton pump inhibitors (PPI)±histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H-2 blockers)...

Role of Single Port Rigid Thoracoscopy in Undiagnosed Pleural Effusion
Jagdish Rawat, Anil Kumar, Parul Mrigpuri, et al.
Tuberc Respir Dis. 2024;87(2):194-199.   Published online February 2, 2024
Background: In recent years, medical thoracoscopy has been well established to play an important role in undiagnosed pleural effusion; however, this procedure is underutilized due to limited availability of the instruments it requires. This study analysed the outcome of single port rigid thoracoscopy in patients with undiagnosed pleural effusions. Methods: This study retrospectively analysed the outcomes of all patients with undiagnosed...
