Comparing the Efficacy of Empirical Anti‐Infective Therapy and Follow‐Up Observation for Newly Diagnosed Pulmonary Ground‐Glass Nodules With Suspected Inflammatory Etiology: A Multicenter Prospective Observational Study Protocol
To date, the efficacy and necessity of using antibiotics for GGOs suspected to be inflammatory upon primary CT screening remain controversial. This protocol describes the rationale and methodology to address this unmet clinical need using real-world data, aiming to bridge the gap between clinical guidelines and real-world practice. <b>Trial Registration:</b> ChiCTR2200056975.
