The usage of Inhaled Corticosteroids (ICS) has been showed to increase the risk of pneumonia and tuberculosis. However, whether the usage of ICS increases the risk of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Pulmonary Disease (NTM-PD) remains unclear. Hence, the aim of the current meta-analysis was to define the risk of NTM-PD with the usage of ICS among chronic respiratory patients.
