Practically all the source cases had positive sputum on direct examination. Contacts were considered to have been exposed to an infectious source case for at least five months.It is suggested that there should be an energetic search for contacts of an active case of pulmonary tuberculosis, and BCG offered to tuberculin negative children. Tuberculin positive children under puberty should have an initial X-ray and another within three months. In the absence of any significant pulmonary abnormality, no further X-raying would be required, especially if the source cases' sputum examinations were negative for tubercle bacilli or positive only on culture.Children in the age group 10–15 run a special risk of the development of post-primary pulmonary tuberculosis, and should continue to be seen at regular intervals.</div>","PeriodicalId":100202,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Tuberculosis and Diseases of the Chest","volume":"52 3","pages":"Pages 255-263"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1958-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0366-0869(58)80140-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"23156154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some degree of diffuse bronchiolar damage, including obliteration, has been demonstrated in all adult lungs examined.Non-specific chronic lung disease is divided into three main morphological forms: bronchiectasis, emphysema and pulmonary fibrosis. In all three forms bronchiolar damage and obliteration is extreme. Bronchiolar obliteration is regarded as the essential lesion in the pathogenesis of these conditions, the severity of the chronic lung disease being satisfyingly related to the operation of factors acting to produce long-standing bronchiolar obstruction and, therefore, obliteration.The operation of other factors determines which of the three morphological forms will predominate, and clinically, which diagnosis will be made. In this manner the natural history of chronic lung disease can be examined as a whole, stressing the essential unity of its three morphological forms.</div>","PeriodicalId":100202,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Tuberculosis and Diseases of the Chest","volume":"52 2","pages":"Pages 105-106, IN1-IN2, 107-113"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1958-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0366-0869(58)80078-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"23119332","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
