“…Similar to our study, in their study Safwat et al 16 found that cases of treatment failure were found only in male, the rate of cure and deaths due to TB were higher in male than in female 16 . Feng et al 17 detected that female patients were significantly less likely to achieve cure than male patients, but the mortality rate for males was higher.…”

“…But as in our study, there are also studies that have found higher TB incidence in female compared to male 14,15 . On the other hand, when we consider age groups similar to our study, in the some studies the researchers found that female patients were more likely to be younger than male patients 12,16,17 . The reason we detected gender differences between age groups may be that social interactions and exposure to disease within the community can vary from country to country.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical features of tuberculosis (TB) in terms of gender differences over a ten-year period. Method: This retrospective cohort study was performed using Sivas Tuberculosis Dispensary 2010-2019 TB patient records. TB incidence, mortality, drug sensitivity percentages and some clinical characteristics of patients were determined. Results: The rate of female new patients was 51.4 % and the female to male ratio was 1.05. The gender difference in rates was highest in the 0-19 age group. Most of the cases (49.9 %) were extra-pulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) and this rate in female (66.6 %) was significantly higher than in male (33.4 %). The most common extra-pulmonary involvement was the lymphatic system (39.7 %). Complete the disease as a cure (65.7 %), treatment failure (100.0 %) and deaths (66.7 %) due to TB were significantly higher in male. We recorded the drug resistance 9 % for ethambutol, 8.6 % for isoniazid, 4.5 % for streptomycin and 2.8 % for rifampicin and there was no significant difference by gender. The incidences of all TB forms, pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and EPTB showed a decreasing trend in both genders and age groups except for those aged 60 and over in male. TB mortality rate and drug sensitivity percentages were in an increasing trend in both genders. Conclusions: Significant changes were found in some clinical features of TB according to gender. It is thought that situations arising from gender changes in TB control programs should be considered.

Background: Drug-resistant TB is the most important issue that threatens to interrupt the improvements achieved in tuberculosis control. Multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis is defined as resistance to both rifampicin and isoniazid.Objectives: To find molecular feature via DNA extraction for genes in charge of drug resistance in pulmonary tuberculosis patients with hyperglycemia and role of the Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra molecular test efficacy in DR-TB cases detection.Method: 106 pulmonary TB patient sputum and blood samples were collected in the Institute of Chest and Respiratory diseases in Baghdad and Medical City Hospital from December 2018 -July 2019, 52 were drug resistances TB patients. All patients were examined by conventional method such as direct examination (AFB test), Gene-Xpert test, FBS and HbA1c test were carried out for all cases.Results: GeneXpert/ultra results revealed 43 cases were Rif resistance in which it was highly significant. The GeneXpert/ultra quantity was mostly medium in the bacillary load. The Rif's resistance cases were mostly registered in the age group (20-59) and in male population. The most frequent patient's type was New MDR. The GeneXpert/ultra quantity and HbA1c levels results showed that most elevated HbA1c cases had a medium to high bacillary load. The DST results were significant in which 95.3% were Rif's resistance and 62.8% were STR's resistance. The LPA on 23 DR cases showed the following; 13 patients were MDR cases in which a deletion in the band WT8 and mutation in the MUT3 band of the gene rpoB and deletion in the inhA WT1 band of the inhA gene were the most notice.Conclusions: Molecular method had showed that mutations in the rpoB gene especially 530 and S531L codon are responsible for majority of RMP resistance in MTB while mutations at the -15/-16 InhA codon and 315 of KatG codon responsible for most INH-resistance cases.

DOTS (Directly Observed Treatment Short-Course) via android apps for promoting adherence to tuberculosis management among pulmonary tuberculosis patients Background: Pulmonary tuberculosis is a global health problem that has become a global concern for the last two decades. Indonesia occupies the second largest position of TB cases after India, which is equal to 10. The prevalence of pulmonary TB in Banten Province is 315 / 100,000 population, where the area with the highest prevalence in South Tangerang City, which is 1,691/100,000 of population. In this global era, mobile phones are very close to society. It is because they can access information messages via electronic media such as cell phones so that they can change a person's behavior, especially health behavior. There are many opinions that the health sector has got a significant benefit from this transformation..Purpose: To identify the effectiveness of DOTS (Directly Observed Treatment Short-Course) via android apps for promoting adherence to tuberculosis management among pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Pamulang Public Health Centre, South Tangerang City.Method: A quantitative research with the design method of quasi-experiment. The population was all patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in the Pamulang Public Health Centre, South Tangerang City. The sample taken by an accidental purposive sampling technique, got of 40 participants divided in two groups and comprising 20 participants in the control group and 20 participants in the experimental groupResults: Showing that there was uncorrelated between age, gender, and weight with the level of obedience and recovery in both the control and experimental groups. There was a significant correlation between the patient's medication obedience level and the recovery rate for pulmonary TB patients in 2 groups. Besides, there was a significant difference between obedience in the control group and the experimental group, with a p-value of 0.04. There was a significant difference between recovery in the control group and the experimental group with a p-value of 0.019Keywords : DOTS (Directly Observed Treatment Short-Course); Android apps; Promoting adherence; Tuberculosis management; Pulmonary; Patients Pendahuluan: Tuberkulosis paru merupakan permasalahan kesehatan global yang menjadi perhatian dunia selama dua dekade terakhir. Indonesia menempati posisi terbesar kedua kasus TB setelah India yaitu sebesar 10Prevalensi TB paru di Provinsi Banten sebesar 315/100.000 penduduk dimana wilayah dengan prevalensi paling tinggi adalah Kota tangerang Selatan yakni sebesar 1.691 per100.000 penduduk. Pada era global ini telepon genggam sangat dekat dengan masyarakat. Hal ini dikarenakan pesan informasi bisa diakses melalui media elektronik seperti telepon genggam sehingga bisa merubah perilaku seseorang khususnya perilaku kesehatan. Ada banyak pendapat bahwa sektor kesehatan sangat diuntungkan oleh transformasi ini.Tujuan: mengidentifikasi efektifitas penggunaan Media Komunikasi Telepon dalam Optimalisasi PMO Terhadap Tingkat Kepatuhan dan Kesembuhan Penderita TB Paru Di Wilayah Puskesmas Pamulang Tangerang Selatan.Metode: Penelitian ini Quasi Experiment 2 group. Populasi penelitian yaitu Seluruh pasien pasien TB Paru di Wilayah Puskesmas Pamulang Kota Tangerang Selatan dengan tehnik Sampling Purposive Sampling dan sesuai dengan jumlah pasien yang ada saat itu.Hasil: menunjukkan tidak ada hubungan antara Umur, Jenis kelamin dan Berat badan dengan tingkat kepatuhan maupun kesembuhan baik pada kelompok kontrol maupun kelompok eksperiment, terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara tingkat kepatuhan minum obat pasien dengan tingkat kesembuhan penderita TB paru pada 2 grup. Serta perbedaan yang signifikan antara kepatuhan pada kelompok kontrol dan kelompok eksperimen dengan p value 0.04 serta ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara kesembuhan pada kelompok kontrol dan kelompok eksperimen dengan p value 0.019.
