Purpose: To investigate the effect of moxifloxacin on paraoxonase-1 (PON1)  activity, and serum oxidative stress in patients with multiple drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB).Methods: A total ofof 130 MDR-TB patients who were treated with moxifloxacin from October 2014 to October 2010 in Eastern Medical District of Linyi People's Hospital of Shandong Province, China were randomly divided into an observation group (65 cases, moxifloxacin group) and control group (65 cases, non-moxifloxacin group). Total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS), oxidative stress index (OSI), PON1 levels and treatment efficacy for groups were determined.Results: Compared with pre-treatment levels, TOS (23.3 ± 4.7 vs 13.9 ± 3.3 umol H2O2 Eq/L, t = 13.20, p = 0.00) and OSI (17.4 ± 4.8 vs 5.7 ± 1.4 U, t = 18.87, p = 0.00) of the observation group significantly decreased, while TAS (1.4 ± 0.5 vs 3.5 ± 0.7 umol Trolox Eq/L, t = 19.68, p = 0.00) and PON1 (15.5 ± 6.9 vs 31.1 ± 8.3 U/L, t = 11.65, p = 0.00) significantly increased. TOS (23.3 ± 4.7 vs 13.9 ± 3.3 umol H2O2 Eq/L, t = 7.73, p < 0.05) and OSI (16.9 ± 5.5 vs 7.4 ± 3.2U, t = 12.04, p = 0.05) reduced significantly in the control group. Moxifloxacin correlated positively with △TAS (r = 0.697, p = 0. 04) and △PON1 (r = 0.785, p = 0.01), but correlation with △TOS (r = -0.625, p = 0.01) was negative. Efficacy was significantly higher in the observation group than that in the control group (81.54 % vs 56.92 %, p =0.00).Conclusion: Oxidative stress injury in MDR-TB patients may be effectively managed by combination of moxifloxacin with anti-TB treatmentKeywords: Multiple drug-resistant TB, Moxifloxacin, Paraoxonase, Oxidative stress

Introduction. The priority direction of hygienic science at the present stage is the study of the nutritional status of patients with multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) of the lungs. The aim of study is to identify the basic patterns of formation of the structure of the nutritional status of patients with MDR-TBof the lungs in order to adopt a reasonable system of measures for their optimization(from a hygienic point of view). Materials and research methods. The actual nutrition of 103 patients with MDR-TBof the lungs was studied using a specially prepared standardized questionnaire, which included information on previous and yesterday nutrition. Nutritional status was determined by evaluating anthropometric indices (height, body mass, chest circumference), on the basis of which the Quetelet index was calculated. Surveyed control group included 20 relatively healthy patients. Bioimpedancemetrywas a special research method. Results and discussion. In the case of multiple correlation analysis, a high direct correlation of the total protein level with the indicator of fat mass according to bioimpedancemetry (r=0.63; p<0.01)was found in patients with MDR-TB of the lungs. Conclusion. There is a need for prevention and correction of excess fatty tissue and a lack of muscle mass, which can be achieved with the help of physical exercise, rational nutrition and nutritional support.

Abstract Background: The emergence of multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a challenge for global prevention and control of the disease. MDR-TB case management is difficult because it exposes to further economic and social costs that the patients face while seeking help and treatment. Ethiopia is one of the 30 MDR-TB burden countries. There is little research evidence of MDR-TB from the peripheral parts of the country.Objective: The study was designed to identify determinants of MDR-TB among patients attending anti tuberculosis treatment from peripheral districts, Southern Nations, Nationalities and People Region, Ethiopia, 2019. Methods: Hospital based case control study was conducted from March to April, 2019 in Southern Ethiopia. Cases were confirmed MDR-TB patients, while controls were those who declared cured or completed first line ant-tuberculosis treatment. The study participants were recruited by stratified random sampling. The data were entered into Epi data 4.4.3, cleaned and analyzed by SPSS 24. Bivariate and multivariable analyses was used to identify determinants of MDR-TB. Determinants with P-value <0.05 were declared as having significant association with MDR-TB and adjusted odd ratio with 95% CI was used to measure degree of association. Result: A total of 180 study participants were recruited (90 cases and 90 controls) and participated in this study. The median age for cases and controls was 29 and 30.5 years respectively. More than two third (78.89%) of case participants were from rural and 49(54.44%) of the controls were from rural. Uneducated [AOR:5.18, 95%CI (1.69-15.80)], rural resident [AOR:2.60,95%CI(1.14-6.88)], body mass index(BMI)<18.5kg/m2[AOR:3.11,95%CI(1.41-6.88], pulmonary tuberculosis[AOR:3.98,95%CI(1.11-14.22)], contact history with tuberculosis patient [AOR:3.99,95%CI (1.75-9.07)] and history of previous treatment[AOR:9.5,95%CI(4.08-22)] were found independent determinants of MDR-TB.Conclusions and Recommendation: Uneducated, rural residence, body mass index <18.5kg/m2, pulmonary tuberculosis, contact history with tuberculosis patient and history of previous treatment were associated with MDR-TB. A community level education to enhance public awareness about MDR-TB, nutritional counseling and support, strengthening contact tracing and directly observed treatment strategies with treatment adherence interventions were recommended.

Introduction: Treatment of multi drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB) with second line drugs is associated with adverse drug reactions and toxicity. Aim of this study were to determine side effects associated with drugs used in treatment of multi drug resistant tuberculosis and treatment related factors of MDR-TB patients.Methodology: A prospective study was carried out in National Tuberculosis Centre Bhaktapur Nepal. Questionnaires were used to collect data from patients.Results: Total 101 MDR TB patients were included among them majorities were male (52%) and mean age of the patients was 31.2 years. Majority of patients (87.1%) had previous history of tuberculosis treatment and 54.5% were in intensive phase of treatment. The side effect associated with drugs used in treatment of MDR-TB reported by patients were joint pain (21.2%), nausea (20.3%), hearing disturbances (11%), gastrointestinal disturbance (9.9%), depression (9.6%), itching (8.1%), hypothyroidism (6.4%), dizziness (6.4%), seizures (3.8%) and hepatitis (3.5%). Last month 25.74% patients missed one or more doses of drugs and 3.9% missed drug doses due to side effect of drugs. Majorities of the patients used vehicle to reach health centre (92.07%), time to reach the health center (59.4%) were less than 30 minutes but majorities of patients (57.4%) were not satisfied by the counseling of health care worker.Conclusion: The finding of this study shows that in MDR patients 12.8% were found new cases. Last month 3.9% patients were stopped the drugs due to side effects of drugs. Majority of patients (57.4%) were not satisfied by counseling of health care worker. Treatment of multi drug resistant tuberculosis with second line anti tubercular drugs is associated with side effects, health care worker counseling to MDR- TB patients with full attention is essential to encourage the patient’s moral and complete the treatment. Timely managing the side effects of medication is important in helping people to complete their treatment.SAARC J TUBER LUNG DIS HIV/AIDS, 2017; XIV(1), Page: 1-6

Abstract Background Multi-drug resistant Tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis that is resistant to at least Rifampicin and Isoniazid drugs. The treatment success rate for MDR-TB cases is lower than for drug susceptible TB. Globally only 55% of MDR-TB patients were successfully treated. Monitoring the early treatment outcome and better understanding of the specific reasons for early unfavorable and unknown treatment outcome is crucial for preventing the emergence of further drug-resistant tuberculosis. However, this information is scarce in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the intensive phase treatment outcome and contributing factors among patients treated for MDR-TB in Ethiopia. Methods A 6 year retrospective cohort record review was conducted in fourteen TICs all over the country. The records of 751 MDR-TB patients were randomly selected using simple random sampling technique. Data were collected using a pre-tested and structured checklist. Multivariable multinomial logistic regression was undertaken to identify the contributing factors. Results At the end of the intensive phase, 17.3% of MDR-TB patients had an unfavorable treatment outcome, while 16.8% had an unknown outcome with the remaining having a favorable outcome. The median duration of the intensive phase was 9.0 months (IQR 8.04–10.54). Having an unfavorable intensive phase treatment outcome was found significantly more common among older age [ARRR = 1.047, 95% CI (1.024, 1.072)] and those with a history of hypokalemia [ARRR = 0.512, 95% CI (0.280, 0.939)]. Having an unknown intensive phase treatment outcome was found to be more common among those treated under the ambulatory care [ARRR = 3.2, 95% CI (1.6, 6.2)], rural dwellers [ARRR = 0.370, 95% CI (0.199, 0.66)], those without a treatment supporter [ARRR = 0.022, 95% CI (0.002, 0.231)], and those with resistance to a limited number of drugs. Conclusion We observed a higher rate of unfavorable and unknown treatment outcome in this study. To improve favorable treatment outcome more emphasis should be given to conducting all scheduled laboratory monitoring tests, assignment of treatment supporters for each patient and ensuring complete recording and reporting which could be enhanced by quarterly cohort review. Older aged and rural patients need special attention. Furthermore, the sample referral network should be strengthened.
