ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Tuberculosis (TB) treatment success rates are high in China, but there are still a considerable number of cases who have unfavourable treatment outcomes (UTO). We aimed to determine the proportion of TB patients with UTO and to assess whether baseline characteristics that included glycaemic status [normal fasting blood glucose (FBG), transient hyperglycaemia and diabetes mellitus (DM)] and vitamin D status were associated with UTO. METHOD: Prospective cohort study conducted between November 2015 and July 2016 at six clinics within routine TB services in Jilin province, where persons with TB were consecutively recruited. Data analysis was performed using the chi-squared test and multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS: Of the 306 recruited TB patients, 96 (31.4%) had smear-positive pulmonary TB, 187 (61.1%) had smear-negative pulmonary TB and 23 (7.5%) had extrapulmonary TB (EPTB). Of these, 95 (31.1%) had normal blood glucose, 83 (27.1%) had transient hyperglycaemia and 128 (41.8%) had DM. 227 (74.2%) patients had vitamin D deficiency/severe deficiency. There were 125 (40.8%) patients with UTO of whom the majority were lost to follow-up (57.6%) or not evaluated (28.8%). UTO was significantly associated with smear-negative pulmonary TB (P = 0.009), EPTB (P < 0.001) and DM (P = 0.007). CONCLUSION: The proportion of TB patients with UTO increased with smear-negative pulmonary TB, EPTB and DM. TB programmes need to pay more attention to these issues and ensure intensive patient support to those at risk and early detection of DM.


OBJECTIF: Les taux de succès du traitement de la tuberculose (TB) sont élevés en Chine, mais il existe encore un nombre considérable de cas avec des résultats de traitement défavorables (RTD). Nous avons cherché à déterminer la proportion de patients TB avec un RTD et d'évaluer si les caractéristiques de base comprenant le statut glycémique [glycémie normale à jeun (GJ), hyperglycémie transitoire et diabète sucré (DS)] et le statut en vitamine D étaient associés à un RTD. MÉTHODE: Etude de cohorte prospective réalisée entre novembre 2015 et juillet 2016 dans six cliniques des services anti-TB de routine de la province de Jilin, où des personnes atteintes de TB ont été recrutées consécutivement. L'analyse des données a été réalisée à l'aide du test du chi carré et de la régression logistique multivariée. RÉSULTATS: Sur 306 patients TB recrutés, 96 (31.4%) avaient une TB pulmonaire à frottis positif, 187 (61.1%) avaient une TB pulmonaire à frottis négatif et 23 (7.5%) avaient une TB extra pulmonaire (TBEP). Parmi ceux-ci, 95 (31.1%) avaient une glycémie normale, 83 (27.1%) avaient une hyperglycémie transitoire et 128 (41.8%) avaient un DS. 227 (74.2%) patients avaient une déficience/déficience sévère en vitamine D. Il y avait 125 (40.8%) patients avec un RTD dont la majorité (57.6%) ont été perdus de vue ou ont été non évalués (28.8%). Le RTD était significativement associé à la TB pulmonaire à frottis négatif (p = 0.009), la TBEP (P < 0.001) et le DS (P = 0.007). CONCLUSION: La proportion de patients TB avec un RTD augmentait avec la TB pulmonaire à frottis négatif, la TBEP et le DS. Les programmes anti-TB devraient accorder plus d'attention à ces problèmes et assurer un soutien intensif au patient pour les personnes à risque et une détection précoce du DS.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Vitamin D could be a mediator in the association between tuberculosis (TB) and diabetes mellitus (DM). A large scale multi-center study confirmed that TB patients with DM had significantly lower serum vitamin D level compared with those without DM and reported that DM was a strong independent risk factor for vitamin D deficiency. OBJECTIVES: This study was undertaken to determine amongst patients with both TB and DM living in different economically defined areas in China: i) their baseline characteristics, ii) their vitamin D status and iii) whether certain baseline characteristics were associated with vitamin D deficiency. METHODS: In DM-TB patients consecutively attending seven clinics or hospitals, we measured 25 hydroxycholecalciferol at the time of registration using electrochemiluminescence in a COBASE 601 Roche analyser by chemiluminescence immunoassay. Data analysis was performed using chi square test and multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS: There were 178 DM-TB patients that included 50 from economically well-developed areas, 103 from better-off areas and 25 from a poverty area. Median vitamin D levels in well-developed, better-off and poverty areas were 11.5ng/ml, 12.2ng/ml and 11.5ng/ml respectively. Amongst all patients, 149 (84%) had vitamin D deficiency-91 (51%) with vitamin D deficiency (10-19.9 ng/ml) and 58 (33%) with severe deficiency (< 10 ng/ml). There was a significantly higher proportion with vitamin D deficiency in the poverty area. The adjusted odds of vitamin D deficiency (25-(OH)D3 <20 ng/ml) were significantly higher in those with longer history of DM (P = 0.038) and with HbA1c≥10% (P = 0.003). CONCLUSION: Over 80% of TB patients with DM in China were vitamin D deficient, with risk factors being residence in a poverty area, a long duration of DM and uncontrolled DM. TB programme managers and clinicians need to pay more attention to the vitamin D status of their patients.
