科学领域:
- 皮肤病学 皮肤病学
- 流行病学 流行病学
- 老年病的医生 老年病的医生
背景情况:
- 补腺炎 (HS) 是一种慢性皮肤疾病,通常在青春期后发展,在老年人群中,患病率被认为会下降.
- 关于HS在老年人群中的数据有限,特别是关于其流行率,临床表现和相关健康问题.
研究的目的:
- 为了确定老年人 (≥60岁) 腺炎 (HS) 的患病率和临床特征.
- 在老年人群中调查与HS相关的并发症.
- 为了将老年HS患者与成人HS患者和年龄匹配的无HS对照进行比较.
主要方法:
- 在荷兰使用生命线队列研究进行的一项全民调查确定了老年HS患者 (≥60岁).
- 老年HS患者的临床数据与成年HS患者 (<60岁) 的临床数据进行了比较.
- 老年HS患者的并发症与性别和年龄相匹配的老年对照组 (1:4比) 相比较.
主要成果:
- 在老年人中,HS的患病率为0.8% (95% CI 0.4-1.2).
- 与成年HS患者 (平均23岁) 相比,老年HS患者出现症状的年龄明显晚 (平均40岁).
- 与对照组相比,老年HS患者的女性:男性比例为1.7:1.0,HS家族病史较高,并显著增加并发症风险.

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Peripheral Artery Disease I: Introduction
9
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) predominantly results from atherosclerosis, which involves the accumulation of fatty deposits, or plaques, within the walls of arteries. This causes them to narrow and harden, significantly reducing blood flow. PAD predominantly affects the legs but also impacts other areas, such as the arms, thereby impairing overall circulation and organ function.Etiology of PAD:The principal cause of PAD is atherosclerosis, which results from fatty deposits inside the arterial...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis I
265
Tuberculosis, often called TB, is a contagious illness primarily caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It mainly affects the lung parenchyma but can also impact other body parts.
Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.
