3. Preventing TB in DM
Two observational studies in 1958 and
1969 showing that isoniazid prophylaxis in
DM patients reduces risk of TB
Knowledge gaps:
Very poorly conducted studies and therefore
evidence base still weak
Pfaffenberg et al, 1958 [Germany]
Lesnichii et al, 1969 [Russia]
Summary:
DM-TB is similar to HIV-TB
HIV-TB
Increased TB cases
More difficult to
diagnose TB cases
Increased death
Increased recurrent TB
Increased failure
DM-TB
Increased TB cases
More difficult to
diagnose TB cases
Increased death
Increased recurrent TB
Increased failure
Harries AD et al, Int J Tuberc Lung Dis 2011; 15: 1436 - 1444
DM prevention/control:
Healthy diets
Exercise
Obesity
Early detection of
impaired glucose
tolerance
Summary:
Diabetes and Tuberculosis
Rapidly growing pandemic of diabetes
This could threaten tuberculosis control by:increasing the number of cases
increasing case fatality
increasing the risk of failure or relapse
