This study aims to gain a detailed understanding of the epidemiology and underlying conditions of bronchiectasis in Japan. This condition arises from various causes, with regional differences significantly influencing clinical presentation. However, specific epidemiological data and elucidating underlying diseases in Japan still need to be increased, necessitating clarification in these areas. Additionally, by including cases of bronchiectasis incidentally discovered through imaging diagnostics, the study aims to capture latent conditions with minimal symptoms, thereby providing a more accurate clinical picture. This approach is expected to enhance the understanding of cases with subtle symptoms and contribute to detecting undiagnosed or underestimated cases early.
Others
Furthermore, the study identifies cases suitable for developing ongoing bronchiectasis treatments. Proper case selection is crucial for evaluating the efficacy of new treatments, and identifying patient groups with disease backgrounds unique to Japan is a vital step in treatment development. By comparing these findings with those of other regions, such as Europe and the United States, the study also explores the potential for developing treatment methods unique to Japan. Thus, this research aims to contribute to advancing domestically and internationally bronchiectasis treatment, ultimately improving patients' quality of life.

Primary Outcome:
- Overall survival rate following the diagnosis of bronchiectasis.
Secondary Outcomes:
- Number of hospitalizations
- Number of exacerbations
- Decline in lung function
- Decrease in quality of life (QOL)
- Changes in disease severity
Exposure/Predictive Factors:
It is hypothesized that the underlying conditions associated with bronchiectasis influence differences in treatment responsiveness and prognosis.
Additional Data to be Collected:
- Age at the time of bronchiectasis diagnosis
- Gender
- Comorbidities
- Details of treatment interventions
- Longitudinal lung function data from the first visit to the current follow-up at our hospital
- Blood test results
- Number of hospitalizations
- Number of exacerbations due to respiratory diseases
Data Collection Method:
- Extraction from electronic medical records.
Statistical Analysis Method:
- Descriptive statistics using summary measures.
Expected Results:
This study is expected to enable the investigation of the epidemiology of bronchiectasis in the Japanese population and provide an understanding of differences in underlying conditions compared to Western populations. By tracking the clinical course, a detailed understanding of the clinical characteristics of bronchiectasis patients under continuous follow-up at our hospital is anticipated. This is expected to lead to the provision of appropriate treatments.
