Increased bronchiectasis risk and related risk factors in inflammatory bowel disease: a 10-year Korean national cohort study. ERJ Open Res 2024; 10:00087-2024. [PMID: 39040586 PMCID: PMC11261352 DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00087-2024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and an increased risk of bronchiectasis, as well as contributing factors, remains unclear. Additionally, whether bronchiectasis increases disease burden in IBD remains unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to: 1) assess whether IBD increases the risk of incident bronchiectasis; 2) compare the risk of bronchiectasis between individuals with Crohn's disease (CD) and those with ulcerative colitis (UC); 3) identify risk factors for bronchiectasis in individuals with IBD; and 4) examine the disease burden in individuals with IBD and bronchiectasis versus those without. Methods We conducted a population-based matched cohort study involving adults aged ≥20 years with IBD, using data acquired from the Korean National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort database between 2002 and 2012. Results During the mean follow-up of 9.6 years, the incidence rate of bronchiectasis was 419.63 out of 100 000 person-years (PY) and 309.65 out of 100 000 PY in the IBD and matched cohorts (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 1.21, 95% CI 1.05-1.39), respectively. UC was associated with increased bronchiectasis risk (aHR 1.42, 95% CI 1.19-1.69), but CD was not. Multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that age, male sex, medical aid, underweight status, COPD and diabetes mellitus were associated with an increased risk of bronchiectasis in the IBD cohort (p<0.05). The mortality, emergency department visit and hospitalisation rates were significantly higher for individuals with IBD and bronchiectasis compared with those without bronchiectasis (p<0.05). Conclusion IBD is associated with increased risk of bronchiectasis, which results in a greater disease burden in individuals with IBD.

Front Oncol 2024; 14:1413590. [PMID: 39015494 PMCID: PMC11250509 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1413590] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The impact of long-term chronic periodontal conditions on the risk of lung cancer could not be accurately evaluated. Our aim was to provide more evidence on the connection between chronic periodontitis (CP) and lung cancer using a nationwide dataset. Methods This study used data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service National Sample Cohort. We enrolled 72,658 individuals with CP (CP cohort) between 2005 and 2019 and 1:1 age- and sex-matched controls without CP (non-CP cohort). Results During the median follow-up period of 5.1 (interquartile range, 2.8-8.0) years, 0.56% (n = 405/72,658) of the CP cohort and 0.29% (n = 212/72,658) of the matched non-CP cohort developed lung cancer, with incidence rates of 8.3 and 4.5 per 10,000 person-years. The risk of incident lung cancer was significantly higher in the CP cohort than in the matched non-CP cohort (adjusted hazard ratio = 2.27, 95% confidence interval = 1.94-2.65). The risk of incident lung cancer was 2.45-fold and 2.10-fold higher in mild and moderate-to-severe CP cohorts than in the matched non-CP control. The risk of incident lung cancer was especially higher in the 40-59 age group, females, and never-smokers than their counterparts. Conclusion We demonstrate that the risk of incident lung cancer is higher in individuals with CP than in those without. The risk of lung cancer was especially high in individuals with more severe CP, females, never-smokers, and obese populations.

Chest 2024; 165:1330-1340. [PMID: 38184167 DOI: 10.1016/j.chest.2024.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/01/2024] [Indexed: 01/08/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the coexistence of bronchiectasis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the poor prognosis associated with the combination of conditions, to our knowledge, no longitudinal studies that comprehensively evaluated whether patients with RA have a higher risk of bronchiectasis compared with those without RA have been published. Whether seropositivity is associated with an increased risk of bronchiectasis in RA is the subject of ongoing controversy. RESEARCH QUESTION Does RA influence the development of bronchiectasis? Is seropositivity associated with an increased risk of bronchiectasis in RA? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS The incidence of bronchiectasis was compared between individuals with RA (n = 50,651; seropositive rheumatoid arthritis [SPRA]: n = 35,879 and seronegative rheumatoid arthritis [SNRA]: n = 14,772) and 1:5 age- and sex-matched control patients (n = 253,255) enrolled between 2010 and 2017 in the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. The participants were followed from 1 year after RA diagnosis or the corresponding index date to the date of bronchiectasis incidence, censored date, or December 2019. RESULTS The cumulative incidence of bronchiectasis at 9 years of follow-up was approximately 7% in participants with RA. During a median follow-up of 4.3 years (interquartile range, 2.6-6.3 years), participants with RA showed a 2.12-fold higher risk of developing bronchiectasis than matched control participants, even after adjusting for potential confounders related to bronchiectasis development (95% CI, 2.00-2.25). In an analysis of RA serologic status using a fully adjusted model, participants with SPRA and those with SNRA showed 2.34-fold (95% CI, 2.20-2.49) and 1.56-fold (95% CI, 1.40-1.73) increased risks, respectively, compared with matched control participants. INTERPRETATION Individuals with RA had approximately twice the risk of developing bronchiectasis than matched control individuals, even after adjusting for potential confounders. The increased risk was more evident in individuals with SPRA than in those with SNRA, implying that rheumatic inflammation plays a major role in the development of RA-bronchiectasis overlap.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bronchiectasis, characterized by irreversible bronchial dilatation, is a growing global health concern with significant morbidity. This review delves into the intricate relationship between smoking and bronchiectasis, examining its epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and therapeutic approaches. Our comprehensive literature search on PubMed utilized MESH terms including 'smoking,' 'smoking cessation,' 'bronchiectasis,' and 'comorbidities' to gather relevant studies. AREAS COVERED This review emphasizes the role of smoking in bronchiectasis development and exacerbation by compromising airways and immune function. Interconnected comorbidities, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and gastroesophageal reflux disease, create a detrimental cycle affecting patient outcomes. Despite limited studies on smoking cessation in bronchiectasis, the review stresses its importance. Advocating for tailored cessation programs, interventions like drainage, bronchodilators, and targeted antibiotics are crucial to disrupting the inflammatory-infection-widening cycle. EXPERT OPINION The importance of smoking cessation in bronchiectasis management is paramount due to its extensive negative impact on related conditions. Proactive cessation programs utilizing technology and targeted education for high-risk groups aim to reduce smoking's impact on disease progression and related comorbidities. In conclusion, a personalized approach centered on smoking cessation is deemed vital for bronchiectasis, aiming to improve outcomes and enhance patients' quality of life in the face of this complex respiratory condition.

Abstract
Objectives Previous studies suggested that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) could lead to pulmonary fibrosis, but the incidence of newly diagnosed interstitial lung disease (ILD) after COVID-19 is unclear. We aimed to determine whether COVID-19 increases the risk of newly diagnosed ILD and whether vaccination against COVID-19 can reduce this risk. Methods This retrospective cohort study used data from the Korean National Health Insurance claim-based database. Two study groups and propensity score (PS)-matched control groups were constructed: Study 1: participants diagnosed with COVID-19 (COVID-19 cohort) and their PS-matched controls; Study 2: COVID-19 vaccinated participants (vaccination cohort) and their PS-matched controls. Results In Study 1, during a median 6 months of follow-up, 0.50% of the COVID-19 cohort (300/60,518) and 0.04% of controls (27/60,518) developed newly diagnosed ILD, with an incidence of 9.76 and 0.88 per 1,000 person-years, respectively. The COVID-19 cohort had a higher risk of ILD [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR), 11.01; 95% confidence interval (CI), 7.42-16.32] than controls. In Study 2, the vaccination cohort had a lower risk of newly diagnosed ILD than controls (aHR, 0.44; 95% CI, 0.34-0.57). Conclusion Using nationwide data, we demonstrated that COVID-19 was associated with a higher incidence rate of newly diagnosed ILD, but that this risk could be mitigated by COVID-19 vaccination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between systemic sclerosis and the development of bronchiectasis is unclear. This study aimed to compare the risk of bronchiectasis between individuals with systemic sclerosis and those without using a nationwide longitudinal dataset. METHODS Using the Korean National Health Insurance Service dataset between 2010 and 2017, we identified 4845 individuals aged ≥ 20 years with systemic sclerosis and 24,225 without systemic sclerosis who were matched 1:5 by age and sex. They were followed up until the date of a bronchiectasis diagnosis, death, or December 31, 2019, whichever came first. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 6.0 (interquartile range, 3.2-8.7) years, 5.3% of the systemic sclerosis cohort and 1.9% of the matched cohort developed bronchiectasis, with incidence rates of 9.99 and 3.23 per 1000 person-years, respectively. Even after adjusting for potential confounders, the risk of incident bronchiectasis was significantly higher in the systemic sclerosis cohort than in the matched cohort (adjusted hazard ratio 2.63, 95% confidence interval 2.22-3.12). A subgroup analysis of individuals with systemic sclerosis revealed that the risk of incident bronchiectasis was notably higher in younger individuals aged 20-39 years (P for interaction = 0.048) and in those without other coexisting connective tissue diseases (P for interaction = 0.006) than in their counterparts. CONCLUSIONS The risk of incident bronchiectasis is higher in individuals with systemic sclerosis than those without. Bronchiectasis should be considered one of the pulmonary manifestations related to systemic sclerosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bronchiectasis in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with greater mortality. However, whether suspected bronchiectasis-defined as incidental bronchiectasis on computed tomography (CT) images plus clinical manifestation-is associated with increased mortality in adults with a history of smoking with normal spirometry and preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine the association between suspected bronchiectasis and mortality in adults with normal spirometry, PRISm, and obstructive spirometry. DESIGN Prospective, observational cohort. SETTING The COPDGene (Genetic Epidemiology of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) study. PARTICIPANTS 7662 non-Hispanic Black or White adults, aged 45 to 80 years, with 10 or more pack-years of smoking history. Participants who were former and current smokers were stratified into normal spirometry (n = 3277), PRISm (n = 986), and obstructive spirometry (n = 3399). MEASUREMENTS Bronchiectasis identified by CT was ascertained using artificial intelligence-based measurements of an airway-to-artery ratio (AAR) greater than 1 (AAR >1), a measure of bronchial dilatation. The primary outcome of "suspected bronchiectasis" was defined as an AAR >1 of greater than 1% plus 2 of the following: cough, phlegm, dyspnea, and history of 2 or more exacerbations. RESULTS Among the 7662 participants (mean age, 60 years; 52% women), 1352 (17.6%) had suspected bronchiectasis. During a median follow-up of 11 years, 2095 (27.3%) died. Ten-year mortality risk was higher in participants with suspected bronchiectasis, compared with those without suspected bronchiectasis (normal spirometry: difference in mortality probability [Pr], 0.15 [95% CI, 0.09 to 0.21]; PRISm: Pr, 0.07 [CI, -0.003 to 0.15]; obstructive spirometry: Pr, 0.06 [CI, 0.03 to 0.09]). When only CT was used to identify bronchiectasis, the differences were attenuated in the normal spirometry (Pr, 0.04 [CI, -0.001 to 0.08]). LIMITATIONS Only 2 racial groups were studied. Only 1 measurement was used to define bronchiectasis on CT. Symptoms of suspected bronchiectasis were nonspecific. CONCLUSION Suspected bronchiectasis was associated with a heightened risk for mortality in adults with normal and obstructive spirometry.

Crit Rev Microbiol 2023:1-22. [PMID: 37694585 DOI: 10.1080/1040841x.2023.2247493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 07/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
The oral cavity contains a site-specific microbiota that interacts with host cells to regulate many physiological processes in the human body. Emerging evidence has suggested that changes in the oral microbiota can increase the risk of lung cancer (LC), and the oral microbiota is also altered in patients with LC. Human and animal studies have shown that oral microecological disorders and/or specific oral bacteria may play an active role in the occurrence and development of LC through direct and/or indirect mechanisms. These studies support the potential of oral microbiota in the clinical treatment of LC. Oral microbiota may therefore be used in the prevention and treatment of LC and to improve the side effects of anticancer therapy by regulating the balance of the oral microbiome. Specific oral microbiota in LC may also be used as screening or predictive biomarkers. This review summarizes the main findings in research on oral microbiome-related LC and discusses current challenges and future research directions.

Do Patients with Bronchiectasis Have an Increased Risk of Developing Lung Cancer? A Systematic Review. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:life13020459. [PMID: 36836816 PMCID: PMC9961135 DOI: 10.3390/life13020459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 01/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Initial evidence supports the hypothesis that patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) have a higher risk of lung cancer. We systematically reviewed the available literature to define the characteristics of lung malignancies in patients with bronchiectasis and the characteristics of patients who develop bronchiectasis-associated lung cancer. METHOD This study was performed based on the PRISMA guidelines. The review protocol was registered in PROSPERO. RESULTS The frequency rates of lung cancer in patients with NCFB ranged from 0.93% to 8.0%. The incidence rate was 3.96. Cancer more frequently occurred in the elderly and males. Three studies found an overall higher risk of developing lung cancer in the NCFB population compared to the non-bronchiectasis one, and adenocarcinoma was the most frequently reported histological type. The effect of the co-existence of NCFB and COPD was unclear. CONCLUSIONS NCFB is associated with a higher risk of developing lung cancer than individuals without NCFB. This risk is higher for males, the elderly, and smokers, whereas concomitant COPD's effect is unclear.

Abstract
Bronchiectasis is a heterogenous disease with multiple aetiologies resulting in inflammation and dilatation of the airways with associated mucus production and chronic respiratory infection. The condition is being recognised ever more frequently as the availability of computed tomography increases. It is associated with significant morbidity and healthcare-related costs. With new understanding of the disease process, varying endotypes, identification of underlying causes and treatable traits, the management of bronchiectasis can be increasingly personalised.

Association between non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis and the risk of incident dementia: A nationwide cohort study. Chron Respir Dis 2023; 20:14799731231222282. [PMID: 38100725 PMCID: PMC10725102 DOI: 10.1177/14799731231222282] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma, are associated with an increased risk of dementia. However, few data are available regarding the risk of dementia in individuals with bronchiectasis. OBJECTIVES To explore the association between bronchiectasis and the risk of incident dementia using a longitudinal population-based cohort. METHODS A total of 4,068,560 adults older than 50 years without previous dementia were enrolled from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database in 2009. They were followed up until the date of the diagnosis of dementia or December 31, 2020. The study exposure was the diagnosis of bronchiectasis, and the primary outcome was incident dementia comprising Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. RESULTS During the median follow-up duration of 9.3 years, the incidence of all-cause dementia was 1.6-fold higher in individuals with bronchiectasis than in those without bronchiectasis (15.0 vs. 9.3/1000 person-years, p < .001). In the multivariable Cox regression analysis, the risk of all dementia was significantly higher in individuals with bronchiectasis than in those without bronchiectasis (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04-1.14). In a subgroup analysis by dementia type, individuals with bronchiectasis had an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease compared to those without bronchiectasis (aHR 1.07, 95% CI 1.01-1.12); the risk of vascular dementia did not significantly differ between the two groups (aHR 1.05, 95% CI 0.90-1.21). CONCLUSION Bronchiectasis was associated with an increased risk of dementia, especially Alzheimer's disease.

Risk Factors of Incident Lung Cancer in Patients with Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis: A Korean Population-Based Study. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14112604. [PMID: 35681584 PMCID: PMC9179333 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14112604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 05/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis have an increased risk of lung cancer, followed by higher mortality in this population. Because the risk factors of lung cancer have not been well identified, this study aimed to investigate the risk factors of lung cancer in individuals with newly diagnosed bronchiectasis. METHODS This cohort study using the Korean National Health Insurance Service database identified 7425 individuals with incident bronchiectasis among those who participated in the health screening exam in 2009. The cohort was followed from baseline to the date of incident: lung cancer, death, or until the end of the study period. We investigated the risk factors of lung cancer in participants with bronchiectasis using the Cox-proportional hazard models. RESULTS During median 8.3 years of follow-up duration, 1.9% (138/7425) developed lung cancer. In multivariable analyses, significant factors associated with increased risk of incident lung cancer included: males (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 3.54, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.17-5.79) than females, the overweight (adjusted HR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.03-2.35) than the normal weight, current smokers (adjusted HR = 3.10, 95% CI = 2.00-4.79) than never smokers, participants living in the rural area (adjusted HR = 2.54, 95% CI = 1.68-3.85) than those living in the metropolitan area. Among comorbidities, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was associated with an increased risk of lung cancer (adjusted HR = 1.46, 95% CI = 1.01-2.13) in participants with bronchiectasis. In contrast, mild alcohol consumption was associated with reduced risk of lung cancer (adjusted HR = 0.47, 95% CI = 0.29-0.74) in those with bronchiectasis. CONCLUSION This Korean population-based study showed that males, current smoking, overweight, living in rural areas, and comorbid chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are associated with increased risk of lung cancer in individuals with bronchiectasis.
