Background: Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) develop acute exacerbations (AE), with varying natural history. The exacerbation is triggered by infection, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. The study on infectious aetiology of AECOPD is largely restricted to only viral or only bacterial aetiology. There are no studies from India that have investigated multiple viral, bacterial, and fungal associations from the same group of patients. This prospective study was conducted over 2 years to estimate the incidence and profile of viral infections in AECOPD patients, their coinfection with other bacterial and fungal agents, and association of the type and pattern of infective agent with the clinical severity. Materials and Methods: Seventy-four AECOPD cases were included in the study. Multiplex polymerase chain reaction was performed from nasopharyngeal swab using Fast Track Diagnostics Respiratory Pathogens 21 Plus Kit. Ziehl–Neelsen (ZN) stain, Modified ZN, and potassium hydroxide (KOH) mount were performed for Mycobacteria, Nocardia, and fungal elements. Bacterial cultures and fungal cultures were done as per the standard techniques. Serum samples were tested for Mycoplasma and Chlamydia pneumoniae immunoglobulin M enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: The number of AECOPD events involving only viral infection, only bacterial infection, bacterial–viral coinfection, and no infection were 43 (58.1%), 32 (43.2%), 20 (27%), and 19 (25.7%), respectively. Influenza A virus was the most common virus (22/43, 51%) identified. In 26 patients, monoviral infections were found, and in 17 patients, polyviral infections were identified, the most common pattern being influenza A and B virus, followed by human rhinovirus and human parainfluenza. The most common bacteria isolated were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9/32,28%) followed by Acinetobacter baumanii and Klebsiella pneumoniae (7/32, 21%). Among the viral–bacterial coinfection, human coronavirus NL63 infection was always associated with a bacterial infection. Conclusion: This information on the various viral and bacterial etiologies of respiratory infections in AECOPD in this part of India will improve the understanding of the management of AECOPD using a timely institution of antivirals and reduce the overuse of antibiotics and the implementation of routine influenza vaccination.

Introduction: Retrospective studies have shown improved diagnostic yield of combined cytology and cell blocks specimens from endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) with variable additional yields in cell blocks. In this prospective study, we assessed the diagnostic performance of cytology and cell blocks in patients undergoing EBUS-TBNA. Methods: This was a single-center, cross-sectional study conducted between December 2017 and November 2019 including patients aged ≥18 years with mediastinal lymphadenopathy. EBUS-TBNA was performed under conscious sedation using 22G needles. Both cytology smears and cell blocks by the tissue coagulum clot technique were prepared for each patient without rapid on-site evaluation. Results: Data were analyzed for 93 patients (mean age 54.25 ± 13.7 years, 73 males) where both cytology and cell blocks were available. Sample adequacy was 100%. Overall diagnostic yield either by cytology or cell block was 83%. Cytology yield was 79.6%, whereas cell block was diagnostic in 73% of patients (P < 0.001). The overall additional yield of cell blocks was 3.2%. Cell blocks had additional yields of 1.8%, 0%, and 14.3% in malignancy, tuberculosis, and sarcoidosis, respectively. Tumor histology was better identified in 76% of positive cell blocks, and accurate histological subtyping was possible in 32.6% cases. Immunohistochemistry was feasible in 82.5% of all positive cell blocks, and these were judged to be adequate for the mutational analysis. Conclusions: Compared to cytology, EBUS-TBNA cell blocks did not significantly increase the overall diagnostic yield in unselected patients. However, cell blocks are beneficial in the characterization of tumor morphology and histological subtyping of lung cancer.

Background: Several studies have demonstrated considerable impairment of quality of life (QOL) in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients, but its relation with severity of OSA is yet unclear. Study Objectives: To investigate the effects of OSA on the QOL and its association with the disease severity. Design and Setting: Observational, prospective case-control study. Materials and Methods: QOL of 69 OSA patients and 41 healthy controls were assessed using the Calgary sleep apnea quality of life index (SAQLI) on the morning following the polysomnography (PSG) study. Statistics: All statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS 17.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago). Differences between sleep-related symptoms and SAQLI subscales scores were assessed with the Chi-square test and the Student t-test. Due to non-normal distribution, differences between SAQLI scores of controls and OSA patients were evaluated using a non-parametric Mann-Whitney test. Spearman correlation and backward multiple regression analysis were used to analyze the association between SAQLI scores and sleep indices and anthropometric variables and PSG variables. Results: Study included 69 cases (57 male and 12 females) with a mean age, weight, height, neck circumference, and body mass index 48.45 ± 10.12 years, 83.03 ± 16.48 kg, 159.75 ± 28.29 cm, 44.01 ± 3.23 cm and 30.77 ± 6.71 kg/m 2 . Mean apnea-hypopnea index was 26.39 ± 16.62. The median score of four SAQLI domains daily function, social interaction, emotional, symptoms and total mean SAQLI score were 3.64 (3.46-3.90), 3.77 (3.51-3.88), 3.64 (3.53-3.83), 4.80 (4.68-5.11), 4.09 (3.88-4.09) ,and 1.36 (1.29-1.71), 1.38 (1.24-1.62), 1.45 (1.23-1.62), 2.00 (1.78-2.26), 1.55 (1.46-1.73) for patients and controls respectively. All the individual domain scores and the mean SAQLI scores of patients were significantly higher than the controls. Conclusion: OSA causes significant impairment of QOL, but the severity of impairment is not directly proportional to the severity of OSA.

Desmoid tumor is a rare, benign soft tissue tumor having potential for local invasion. It commonly arises in abdominal wall, presenting as a palpable mass. We describe a case of thoracic desmoid tumor in a middle aged male arising from the chest wall. Unlike the usual presentation, two separate non-palpable tumor masses protruded into left thoracic cavity mimicking lung carcinoma. The patient underwent successful complete surgical excision of the tumor. Such tumors, being rare, may pose diagnostic problems if not considered in the initial work up.

Although a simple and useful pulmonary function test, spirometry remains underutilized in India. The Indian Chest Society and National College of Chest Physicians (India) jointly supported an expert group to provide recommendations for spirometry in India. Based on a scientific grading of available published evidence, as well as other international recommendations, we propose a consensus statement for planning, performing and interpreting spirometry in a systematic manner across all levels of healthcare in India. We stress the use of standard equipment, and the need for quality control, to optimize testing. Important technical requirements for patient selection, and proper conduct of the vital capacity maneuver, are outlined. A brief algorithm to interpret and report spirometric data using minimal and most important variables is presented. The use of statistically valid lower limits of normality during interpretation is emphasized, and a listing of Indian reference equations is provided for this purpose. Other important issues such as peak expiratory flow, bronchodilator reversibility testing, and technician training are also discussed. We hope that this document will improve use of spirometry in a standardized fashion across diverse settings in India.

Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is a rare, chronic lung disease with bilateral intra-alveolar calcium and phosphate deposition throughout the lung parenchyma with predominance to lower and midzone. Although, etiology and pathogenesis of PAM is not fully understood, the mutation in SLC34A2 gene that encodes a sodium-phosphate co-transporter in alveolar type II cells resulting in the accumulation and forming of microliths rich in calcium phosphate (due to impaired clearance) are considered to be the cause of the disease. Chest radiograph and high-resolution CT of thorax are nearly pathognomonic for diagnosing PAM. HRCT demonstrates diffuse micronodules showing slight perilobular predominance resulting in calcification of interlobular septa. Patients with PAM are asymptomatic till development of hypoxemia and cor-pulmonale. No therapy has been proven to be beneficial except lung transplantation.

Objectives: This study, using a questionnaire and pulmonary function tests (PFTs), was aimed at assessing the prevalence of respiratory diseases and the impact of environmental factors on these diseases. Materials and Methods: 201 schoolteachers, residing in an urban area at moderate altitude (2200m), were administered a standardized questionnaire and subjected to PFTs. The data obtained was statistically analyzed. Results: 28.35% subjects had one or more chronic symptoms. Shortness of breath was present in 16.41%; wheeze in 14.43%; cough in 8.46%; sputum production in 8.46%; and wheeze with shortness of breath in 6.97%. The frequency of symptoms increased with age and smoking. Pulmonary functions were lower in subjects with symptom(s) as compared to those who were asymptomatic; forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) showed the greatest reduction amongst the parameters studied. Functions were significantly lower in smokers and those using hydrocarbon fuels. 3.98% had bronchial asthma; the prevalence was higher in females at 4.48%. The overall prevalence of chronic bronchitis was 8.46%; however among smokers this was 29.16% and in non-smokers 5.65%.
