“…The high incidence of death may be related to the interaction itself between both pathologies, which leads to increased mortality rates [17]. A greater rate of abandonment was also observed among patients with HIV (12.9% against 6.8%), which agrees with other studies in Brazil [21][22][23]. A limitation to this study was the incomplete reporting of information in the data bank, resulting in much information not being available for use.…”

The purpose of this study was to describe the epidemiological pro-file of reported HIV/tuberculosis co-infected individuals in Ribeirão Preto (state of São Paulo). It is an epidemiological, descriptive and cross-sectional study con-ducted in 2012; the population was comprised of all individuals with HIV/tuberculosis co-infection, reported in 2010 and 2011. The data was collected from the TB web database. Of the 375 individuals reported with tuberculosis reported during the study period, 307 underwent HIV serologic testing; 222 (72.3%) of the results were negative and 85 (27.7%) were positive. In the cases of individuals who only had tuberculosis, as well as those who were co-infected, most were male-68.5% and 70.6% respectively. The predominant age range was from 30 to 49 years (40.0%) and 36.7% had completed 4-7 years of education. In terms of treatment outcome, there was an 80.5% cure rate. The gender, age range and end of treatment variables were subjected to the chi-square test. The prevalence ratio was computed for each variable to compare individuals with and without tuberculosis; who presented chance of risk with the co-infection as per their age range, education, the existence of extrapulmonary tuberculosis, negative baciloscopy, with normal x-ray image and treatment outcome of abandonment. As observed, HIV/aids is associated with a greater rate of deaths and more complicated forms of tuberculosis, evidencing the need to promote multidisciplinary actions reflecting on their diseases.

“…Of the 122 patients who were submitted to sputum smear microscopy and for whom the results were known, 87 (71.0%) tested positive, a result similar to that reported by another group of authors. (23) In the present study, it was impossible to clarify the reasons for the lack of requests for sputum smear microscopy at admission. Also relevant was the fact that 76 patients (16.8%) reported dry cough and had been diagnosed based on clinical and radiological findings alone.…”

Objective: To characterize the profile of patients with tuberculosis (TB) and identify the service flowchart, and the opinion of professionals responsible for the Tuberculosis Control Program of municipalities in the Regional Health Department III of the State of São Paulo.

Results: Of 122 notifications identified, 69% were men, 35% were unemployed, 25% were alcoholics and 86% had pulmonary TB. The control activities were centralized, and the nurses were responsible for programs in the region. These professionals identified favorable points of team involvement and ease in requesting examinations. Unfavorable points included the lack of equipment and professionals, and the delays in obtaining exams. Conclusion: The region has the typical profile for TB, including aspects of social fragility, centralized control actions, and those in charge do not recognize the centralization of the actions, and the lack of autonomy of the units or weaknesses of the program..
