Chronic lung diseases are prevalent worldwide and cause significant mortality and suffering. This article discusses infections that occur in three chronic lung diseases: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchiectasis, and cystic fibrosis. Rather than discussing the role of infections as etiology of these diseases, this article focuses on infections that occur in the background of established chronic lung disease.
慢性肺部疾病在全球范围内普遍存在，会导致大量死亡和痛苦。本文讨论了三种慢性肺部疾病中发生的感染：慢性阻塞性肺疾病、支气管扩张症和囊性纤维化。本文并非讨论感染作为这些疾病病因的作用，而是聚焦于在已确诊的慢性肺病背景下发生的感染。
