Prevalence of diabetes mellitus in patients with treatment for tuberculosis in a public hospital in Colombia
Keywords:
Tuberculosis, Diabetes mellitus, TB-DM comorbidity, risk factors, Colombia, correlation between diabetes and tuberculosis.Abstract
Introduction: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Diabetes Mellitus is among the risk factors for the development of Tuberculosis. People with active Tuberculosis and diabetes can be negatively complicated by the results of Tuberculosis treatment, delaying the time of microbiological response which increases the probability of an unfavorable result and the risk of relapse, drug resistance, and death in some cases.
Objective. To establish the prevalence of Diabetes mellitus and its correlation with risk factors in patients with Tuberculosis who underwent treatment in a public Hospital in Valledupar, Colombia.
Material and Methods. A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in all cases diagnosed with Tuberculosis that underwent treatment in a public Hospital in Valledupar, Colombia. The diagnosis of diabetes was made with the use of a test to measure basal glycemia, the clinical histories of the patients, and surveys. All participants were surveyed for the evaluation of risk factors.
Results. Of the 70 patients with Tuberculosis, 8 (11.4%) were diagnosed with DM. It was observed that the age> 40 years (p = 0.030) constitutes a risk factor for the TB-DM binomial; but there was no statistically significant difference with regard to sex, alcohol consumption, tobacco consumption, HIV, and body mass index (p> 0.05).
Conclusions. The prevalence of Diabetes mellitus-Tuberculosis binomial in the Hospital studied corresponds to the figures established by the World Health Organization (WHO).
Key words: Tuberculosis, Diabetes mellitus, TB-DM comorbidity, risk factors, Colombia, correlation between diabetes and tuberculosis.Downloads
