Early quantifiable assessment of silicosis workers would promote early interventional steps to reduce health deterioration. The objectives of this study were to correlate spirometry findings and post-six-minute walk test oxygen desaturation (post-6MWT OD) in chronic simple silicosis with age, duration of silica exposure (DSE), smoking pack years (SPY), occupation, and mean pulmonary artery pressure. Based on occupational exposure to silica and radiologic confirmation of chronic simple silicosis, 104 patients (all males) were enrolled and grouped based on SPY (nil, 1-10, 11-20, and >20) and occupation (drillers and dressers). They were further investigated with spirometry, post-6MWT OD, and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), and findings were statistically analyzed. Abnormal spirometry findings were seen in 62.5% of total cases (65/104), with the highest percentage in the >20 SPY group (84%; 21/25) and drillers (68.3%; 28/41). The post-6MWT OD was seen in 50.96% of cases (53/104) with the highest percentage in the >20 SPY group (56%; 14/25) and drillers (63.4%; 26/41). Normal and restrictive patterns were predominant among <20 SPY groups, while obstructive and mixed patterns were prevalent in the >20 SPY group. Normal, obstructive, and restrictive patterns were predominant among dressers, while mixed patterns were in drillers. Mean age and mean DSE were higher for >20 SPY group and dressers; obstructive and mixed patterns; and patients with post-6MWT OD.

The management of this heterogeneous condition in individuals with chronic respiratory symptoms is challenging, especially under limited diagnostic resources. Since 2020, all consecutive patients referred for spirometry at our institution have been invited to participate in our registry. Other than spirometry, no other physiological lung function testing is available in this public health service. Therefore, we reviewed our databank with the aim of assessing: i) the proportion of symptomatic patients aged 18 years or older referred for spirometry presenting with PRISm; ii) the rate of inhaled medication used in this group, suggesting a referral diagnosis of obstructive airway disease (OAD); and iii) the relationship between symptoms and results on spirometry in PRISM compared to a group with obstruction matched by FEV1. To this end, the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) and the Asthma Control Test (ACT) were conjointly responded to by 1032 participants, irrespective of the clinical suspicion. We found that 22% had PRISM, of whom 200 were paired with obstruction by FEV1 (68±10% of predicted). The CAT and ACT results were well-correlated in both groups (r=-0.727 and -0,698, respectively; p<0.001) and used to measure symptoms. Participants in the final sample (n=400) were aged 62±13 years; 70% were ever smokers; and 55% reported household exposure to biomass smoke (at least 5 years). The CAT responses were in the range of moderate symptoms (17±9) and ACT borderline for uncontrolled symptoms (19±5). The main differences were higher body mass index (33±7 versus 29±7 kg/m2; p<0.001) and proportion of females (72 versus 49%; p<0.001) in PRISm compared to obstruction. This group had lower exposure to tobacco (65 versus 76% of ever-smokers) but greater exposure to biomass smoke (61 versus 49%) (p<0.05 for all). The rate of inhaled medication use was as high in PRISm as in obstruction (80%). Notwithstanding matched FEV1, we found less prominent signs of airway disease in PRISM: marginally reduced FEV1/forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio (94±8% of predicted); higher expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of vital capacity, despite presumed lower lung volumes (lower FVC); and lower rate of bronchial hyperresponsiveness. In an identical multivariate model, FEV1 predicted symptoms of obstruction only.

A cross-sectional study was conducted in the Pulmonology Department of the Hassan II University Hospital in Fez in 2021. Data collection was carried out using an anonymous questionnaire containing sociodemographic, clinical, and therapeutic information. We employed the Moroccan version of the 12-item short-form (SF-12) scale to assess the mental and physical quality of life of patients. Bivariate analysis was performed to investigate the association between various factors and quality of life, using tests appropriate to the types of variables studied. Subsequently, multivariate analysis through multiple linear regression was employed to determine factors associated with quality of life, taking into account confounding factors. The threshold for inclusion in the model was set at 20%. Significant associations are presented as β values along with their 95% confidence intervals (CI).

An understanding of the association between infectious pulmonary and ocular diseases is pivotal to their successful management. We aimed to review the infections affecting both the lungs and the eye. The electronic database PubMed and the search engine Google Scholar were searched for relevant articles. Ocular tuberculosis (TB), usually not associated with clinical evidence of pulmonary TB, can affect almost all the ocular structures. Confirmation of the diagnosis of ocular TB requires demonstration of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in ocular fluids/tissues. Among the drugs used to treat TB, ethambutol, isoniazid, and linezolid may cause toxic optic neuropathy. Elderly, those with renal disease, diabetes mellitus, malnourished, alcoholics, and those who will receive ethambutol at doses greater than 15 mg/kg/day and for prolonged periods are at high risk of developing toxic optic neuropathy. These individuals should be referred to an ophthalmologist before initiating ATT for a baseline ophthalmic evaluation. Linezolid may also cause toxic retinal neuropathy. Rifampicin may cause yellowish-orange discoloration of tears and contact lenses. Adenovirus, coronavirus, influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and rhinovirus exhibit both pulmonary and ocular tropism. Pneumocystis jirovecii choroiditis is rare and mainly seen when aerosolized pentamidine is used for pneumocystis pneumonia prophylaxis. Further research is needed to develop non-interventional strategies to diagnose ocular TB. Biomarkers for early detection of toxic optic neuropathy are a need of the hour.
