背景：印度成年男性结核病的患病率比女性高2-4倍。吸烟几乎只在男性中流行，因此吸烟可能是患肺结核的一个危险因素。进行了巢式病例对照研究，研究吸烟和肺tuberculosis.Methods之间的关联：结核病调查进行了两个Panchayat工会在印度泰米尔纳德邦的Tiruvallur区。选择85例年龄在20-50岁的男性细菌性肺结核（涂片和/或培养阳性）患者作为病例，随机选择459例年龄匹配的非结核男性作为对照。结果：吸烟与细菌性肺结核的粗比值比（OR）为2.48（95%可信区间（0）为1.42 ~ 4.37），P < 0.05，吸烟与细菌性肺结核的粗比值比（OR）为2.48（95%可信区间（0）为1.42 ~ 4.37），P < 0.05，P < 0.05，P < 0.05。
Background: The prevalence of tuberculosis in adult men in India is 2-4 times higher than in women. Tobacco smoking is prevalent almost exclusively among men, so it is possible that tobacco smoking may be a risk factor for developing pulmonary tuberculosis. A nested case control study was carried out to study the association between tobacco smoking and pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods: A tuberculosis disease survey was carried out in two Panchayat unions in the Tiruvallur district of Tamil Nadu in India. Eighty five men aged 20-50 years with bacteriological tuberculosis (smear and/or culture positive) were selected as cases and 459 age matched men without tuberculosis were selected randomly as controls. Information on smoking status, type of tobacco smoked, quantity of tobacco smoked, and duration of tobacco smoking was collected from cases and controls using a questionnaire.Results: The estimated crude odds ratio (OR) of the association between tobacco smoking and bacillary tuberculosis was 2.48 (95% confidence interval (0) 1.42 to 4.37), p
