  • Analysis of Drug Resistance Treating Mycobacterium Tuberculosis in Chengdu

    【摘要】 目的 分析成都市近年一线抗结核药的耐药状况,为耐药结核病预防控制提供依据。 方法 对成都市2007年1月-2009年12月就诊的结核患者,临床分离株培养鉴定为结核分枝杆菌的菌株采用绝对浓度法进行一线抗结核药:链霉素(SM)、异烟肼(INH)、利福平(RF)、乙胺丁醇(EMB)耐药性检测,分析结核分枝杆菌的耐药情况。 结果 1 235例结核患者中,总耐药率和总耐多药率分别为28.83%、14.01%,初始耐药率和获得性耐药率分别为12.82%、61.27%。近3年耐多药率有下降趋势,但获得性耐药率呈逐年上升趋势。 结论 成都市结核耐药状况仍然比较严重,进一步加强耐药结核的监测和控制非常重要。【Abstract】 Objective To analyze the drug resistant treating mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in Chengdu in recent three years, and to provide the evidence for tuberculosis controlling. Methods The patients with MTB diagnosed from January 2007 to December 2009 in Chengdu were enrolled. Absolute concentration method was used to test the drug-resistance of streptomycin (SM), isoniazide (INH), rifampicin (RFP), and ethambutol (EMB). Results The total rate of drug resistance and multi-drug resistance were 28.83% and 14.01% respectively. The rates of initial drug resistance and the acquired drug resistance were 12.88% and 61.27% respectively. Multi-drug resistance rate showed a downward trend, but the rate of acquired drug resistance increased gradually. Conclusion The situation of drug resistance of tuberculosis in Chengdu is still serious, and it′s very important to further monitor and control the drug resistance treating tuberculosis.

  • Effects of COVID-19 vaccine in elderly SARS-CoV-2 infected patients

    Objective The current study aimed to compare the differences in clinical characteristics and prognosis of elderly patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection between patients who were vaccinated and those not and to explore the clinical significance of vaccination for the elderly.Methods A total of 92 elderly patients (≥60 years old) with SARS-CoV-2 infection who were admitted to Chengdu Public Health Clinical Center from December 10, 2020, to May 2, 2022, were included, and they were grouped according to whether vaccinated. The differences in clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, imaging, treatment, prognosis, hospitalization time, and nucleic acid conversion time between the two groups were compared in this study. Results A total of 92 elderly patients were included, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.3:1, and a median age of 66 (62, 71) years old. There were 79 patients in the vaccinated group and 13 in the unvaccinated group. The positive rate of total SARS-CoV-2 antibody in 92 patients was 91.3%, and those of IgG and IgM of SARS-CoV-2 antibody were 89.1% and 37%, respectively. The positive rates of total SARS-CoV-2 antibody and IgG of SARS-CoV-2 antibody in the vaccinated group were higher than those in the unvaccinated group (97.5% vs. 53.8%, 96.2% vs. 46.2%) (P<0.01), and COI values of total antibody, IgM and IgG were higher than those of unvaccinated group (P<0.01). The proportions of the initial symptoms of sputum, ground-glass opacity or patchy opacity involving both lungs in chest CT in the unvaccinated group were higher than those in the vaccinated group (P<0.05). The white blood cell counts and platelet counts in the vaccinated group were higher than those in the unvaccinated group, whereas the prothrombin time and D-dimer were lower than those in the unvaccinated group (P<0.05). COI values of total antibody in the 3-doses group were higher than those in the 2-doses group, and the white blood cell counts in the 3-doses group were higher than those in the 2-doses group (all P<0.05). During hospitalization, asymptomatic infection (58.2%) and general type (53.8%) was the most common in the vaccinated and unvaccinated group, respectively. Patients in the unvaccinated group were more likely to progress to severe status than the vaccinated group during hospitalization (15.4% vs. 0%, P=0.019). The unvaccinated group received more treatments of intravenous immune globulin, non-invasive and invasive mechanical ventilation, plasma after immunization of vaccine and convalescent plasma of SARS-CoV-2 infected patients than those of the vaccinated group (P<0.05). Patients in the unvaccinated group developed a higher proportion of respiratory failure, secondary infection, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and heart failure than in the vaccinated group (P< 0.05). The median lengths of hospitalization and nucleic acid conversion in the unvaccinated group were 22 (7, 32) days and 13 (2, 20) days, which were longer than those in the vaccinated group [8 (7, 12) days, 2 (2, 7) days] (all P<0.05). Conclusions Vaccination of SARS-CoV-2 can improve the positive rate of total SARS-CoV-2 antibody and IgG of SARS-CoV-2 antibody in elderly patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, milder disease status, and can shorten the time of hospitalization and nucleic acid conversion. These results suggest that the COVID-19 vaccine can reduce the disease and improve the prognosis in the elderly.
