[Effects of different factors on work capacity status of patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis].
As shown by medical disability expert commission which followed up 142 tuberculous patients throughout chemotherapy, the disability in new-onset tuberculosis cases is related both to medical and social factors. The jobs of 1/2 of the examinees were not fit for such patients. More than half of them had concomitant visceral lesions. The duration of temporary disability was consequent to many factors, the principal of which were dissemination and destruction: subjects with local infection without destruction were incapable 192 days, on the average, while those with tuberculosis dissemination and destruction 266 days. 14.1% became invalids. Only a small group of the patients were not in need of social support.
