Analysis of diagnosis delay among migrant pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Guangzhou from 2014 to 2022
Background: Delays in diagnosing pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) lead to more severe disease progression and sustained transmission within communities. This study aimed to assess trends and identify risk factors associated with PTB diagnosis delays, especially among migrants, in Guangzhou from 2014 to 2022. Methods: Demographic and clinical information of PTB patients from 2014 to 2022 in Guangzhou were extracted from the PTB Information Management …
Transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in schools
Background: China is a country with a high burden of tuberculosis (TB). TB outbreaks are frequent in schools. Thus, understanding the transmission patterns is crucial for controlling TB. Method: strains isolated from patients with TB attending schools during 2015 to 2019 in Guangzhou, China. Result: The TB incidence was mainly concentrated in regular secondary schools and technical and vocational schools. The incidence of drug resistance among th…
Factors associated with treatment outcomes of patients with drug-resistant tuberculosis in China
Objectives: Drug-resistant tuberculosis remains a serious public health problem worldwide, particularly in developing countries, including China. This study determined treatment outcomes among a cohort in Guangzhou, China, and identified factors associated with them. Methods: We initiated a retrospective study using drug-resistant TB data in Guangzhou from 2016 to 2020, managed by Guangzhou Chest Hospital. A competing risk model was used to ident…
