P1-280 Analysis of tuberculosis resistance in Sao Paulo State (SPS), Brazil from 2007 to 2008
Introduction Tuberculosis (TB) remains a serious public health problem. The most serious aspect of this problem has been the appearance of TB drug-resistance (TBDR), mainly the multidrug-resistance (TBMDR). One in five TB cases in Brazil occurs in Sao Paulo State, which has about 19 000 cases per year. Since 1980, TB treatment in Brazil has been with rifampin, isoniazid and pirazinamid.

SP1-97 Nontuberculous mycobacteria: Comparative analysis with tuberculosis notification in São Paulo State (SPS)

When the TB diagnosis is based on AFB detection only, eventual NTM diseases can erroneously be treated as TB. The aim of this study is to identify pulmonary NTM notified as TB. Methodology A database was constructed with NTM records during the 2008–2009 period. The records were compared wit…
P1-279 Trend analysis of HIV/tuberculosis co-infection in SÃo Paulo State (SPS), Brazil, from 1998 to 2009
Introduction SPS notified 18 228 cases of tuberculosis (Tb) in 2009. The study of endemia trend since 1998 (49.3/100 000 inhabitants) points towards declining incidence rates (IR) of 37.9/100 000 inhabitants, showing a decrease of 23.7% up to 2009. In 1998, 16% of Tb cases were HIV+; in 2009, the co-infection fell to 12%. Objectives Study TB/AIDS co-infection trend in SPS, 1998–2009.
