Pseudomonas aeruginosa prevalence was higher in bronchiectasis-COPD overlap syndrome compared to simple bronchiectasis.
Significant differences in gram-negative infections observed with a focus on mycobacterial infections in simple bronchiectasis.
High-resolution computed tomography indicated more severe imaging findings linked to pathogen distribution variations.
Identifying unique characteristics enhances diagnosis and treatment approaches for bronchiectasis and its overlap with COPD.
