Abstract Background The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is increasing globally and its comorbidity with tuberculosis (TB) is re-emerging, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Objective The main aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of DM and HIV infection and their associated risk factors among active tuberculosis patients in Northwest Ethiopia. Methods This hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted between February 1st and June 30th, 2017 among active TB patients in two hospitals of Northwest Ethiopia. Two hundred and sixty-seven active TB cases aged 18 years or older were screened for diabetes using fasting blood glucose (FBG) test. Semi-structured questionnaires were used to collect demographic data, lifestyle habits and clinical data. Identification of pre-diabetes or diabetes in TB patients was achieved according to American Diabetes Association guidelines (2016). Results Prevalence of DM and TB comorbidity was 11.5% (95% confidence interval, CI 7.8–15.2) compared to 24.9% (95% CI 20.1–30.1) for pre-diabetes. Prevalence of HIV/TB co-infection was 21.9% (95% CI 16.7–26.8). Risk of DM was higher in TB patients from a rural location (adjusted odds ratio, aOR 3.13, 95% CI 1.02–9.62, p = 0.046). Similarly, DM was higher in TB patients who have a family history of DM (aOR 4.54, 95% CI 1.31–15.68, p = 0.017). Furthermore, HIV/TB co-infection was identified as a predictor of DM comorbidity in active TB patients (aOR 5.11, 95% CI 2.01–12.98, p = 0.001). Conclusion The magnitude of DM and pre-diabetes in active TB patients in Northwest Ethiopia was high, warranting collaborative efforts to improve screening and adopt better clinical management strategies for DM–TB comorbid patients. Furthermore, being rural residents, family history of DM and HIV/TB co-infection were found to associate with DM among TB patients, highlighting the importance of the above-mentioned risk factors in the clinical management of this comorbidity.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is an important risk factor associated with tuberculosis (TB). This study investigated the prevalence and determinants of hyperglycemia among newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis patients in the Agona Swedru Municipality. Method: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted from December 2015 to April 2016. One hundred (100) newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis patients at the Agona Swedru Municipal Hospital (ASMH) were enrolled for the study. Socio-demographic, clinical and anthropometric measurements were collected and fasting blood glucose (FBG) measured using standard protocols. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 20.0. Result: Of the 100 participants, 26% had hyperglycemia. The significant factors associated with increased risk of hyperglycemia among participants were history of diabetes mellitus (OR = 8.17, p= 0.004), severity of infection (OR = 23.64, p < 0.001) and duration of symptoms (OR= 2.63, p= 0.042). Conclusion: Hyperglycemia was common among newly diagnosed pulmonary tuberculosis patients. History of diabetes mellitus, severity of infection, and duration of symptoms were the determinants of hyperglycemia in pulmonary tuberculosis. Regular screening of hyperglycemia is essential in the management of tuberculosis. Finally, further studies should be conducted on glucose levels among pulmonary tuberculosis patients using higher sample size to increase the understanding of the subject.
