Table I.
Comparison of lesion types in the 410 patients with tracheobronchial tuberculosis enrolled in the present study.
| Gender | Total number of lesions, n (%) | Congestion, n (%) | Granulation, n (%) | Cavity, n (%) | Stenosis, n (%) | Scar, n (%) | χ2 | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Male (n=109) | 111 (26.2) | 1 (0.2) | 16 (3.8) | 58 (13.7) | 29 (6.8) | 7 (1.7) | ||
| Female (n=301) | 313 (73.8) | 6 (1.4) | 33 (7.8) | 170 (40.1) | 80 (18.9) | 24 (5.7) | ||
| Total (n=410) | 424 (100) | 7 (1.7) | 49 (11.6) | 228 (53.8) | 109 (25.7) | 31 (7.3) | 1.858 | 0.762 |
χ2 value and the P-value were calculated through comparing the pathological lesion types between the male and the female groups.
