* Statistically significant values (p < 0.05). Model 1: Adjusted for age, work duration, history of pulmonary tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, pulmonary cavity, and profusion of small opacities. Model 2: Adjusted for age, work duration, history of pulmonary tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, pulmonary cavity, and grade of large opacities. OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
