Table 4_Imaging features of primary type 2 diabetes patients with RR/MDR tuberculosis.xlsx

Table 4_Imaging features of primary type 2 diabetes patients with RR/MDR tuberculosis.xlsx contains clinical and pulmonary CT imaging data for 364 patients across four cohorts. The dataset, authored by Yuhua Zhao and shared under CC-BY-4.0, compares features among patients with drug-resistant and drug-susceptible tuberculosis, with and without type 2 diabetes, treated at Dalian Public Health Clinical Center from 2018 to 2023.

Use Cases

• Identifying high-risk imaging features for type 2 diabetes in drug-resistant tuberculosis patients based on described features like large nodules and multiple cavities.
• Analyzing correlations between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and specific CT findings such as pleural effusion or lymph node enlargement.
• Comparing demographic and clinical profiles (e.g., BMI, smoking rates) across patient cohorts with different disease combinations.

Strengths

• Includes data from 364 patients across four distinct clinical groups for comparative analysis.
• Contains specific imaging features identified as statistically significant, such as multiple cavities (≥3) and large nodules.
• Covers a 5-year time range (2018-2023) from a single clinical center.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data is from a single center in Dalian, which may limit geographic generalizability.
