Glycated haemoglobin levels in patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis infection during 6 months of treatment

Abstract: Background: There is little information on the possible impact of drugs used in the treatment of multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) on glycaemic levels. This study therefore assessed changes in glycated haemoglobin levels in patients with MDR-TB. Materials and Methods:This longitudinal study involved 21 MDR-TB patients who were followed up for 6 months. Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) level of each patient was determined before the commencement of MDR-TB drug regimen and at 2, 4 and 6 months post treatmen… Show more

“…Fasting blood glucose (FBG) concentrations of participants were determined using the Accu-Chek performa glucometer and its test strips (manufactured by Roche Diabetes Care Incorporated, 9115 Hague Rd., Indianapolis, IN 46256, United States of America) [35]. The Clover A1c Self system (Infopia Co. Ltd., 132, Anyangcheondong-ro, Dongan-gu, Anyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, 14040, Korea) was used to determine the percentage of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in whole blood samples of participants via the boronate affinity assay [36]. Normal blood lipids and glucose values were defined as follows: TC, <5.2 mmol/L; LDL, ≤2.59 mmol/L; HDL, ≥1.03 mmol/L; TG, <1.7 mmol/L; FBG, 3.6–6.4 mmol/L; HbA1c, <6.0%.…”
