“…Antibiotics use in many studies has been recognised as a risk factor to increase HAIs incidence [ 9 , 10 ]. For TB patients, especially those elderly, they have a low immunity to fight against the infections [ 11 ]. As a consequence, TB patients are at high risk to get HAIs.…”

Background China has been still suffering from high burden attributable to tuberculosis (TB) and healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). TB patients are at high risk to get HAIs. Evidence-based guidelines or regulations to constrain the rising HAIs among TB hospitalized patients are needed in China. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to investigate the risk factors associated with HAIs among TB hospitalized patients in Chinese hospitals. Methods Medline, EMBASE and Chinese Journals Online databases were searched. The search was limited to studies published from January 1st 2001 to December 31st 2020. Meta-analyses of ORs of the risk factors between patients with HAIs and patients without HAIs among TB hospitalized patients were estimated. Heterogeneity among studies was assessed based on the $$\widehat{{\uptau }}$$ τ ^ 2 and I2 statistics to select the meta-analysis model. Review Manager 5.3 was employed and P < 0.05 was considered as statistical significance. Results 851 records were filtered from the databases, of which 11 studies were included in the quantitative meta-analysis. A total of 11,922 TB patients were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis, of which 1133 were diagnosed as having HAIs. Age older than 60 years (OR: 2.89 [2.01–4.15]), complications (OR: 3.28 [2.10–5.13]), diabetes mellitus (OR: 1.63 [1.22–2.19]), invasive procedure (OR: 3.80 [2.25–6.42]), longer than 15 hospitalization days (OR: 2.09 [1.64–2.64]), secondary tuberculosis (OR: 2.25 [1.48–3.42]), smoking (OR: 1.40[1.02–1.93]), underlying disease (OR: 2.66 [1.53–4.62]), and use of antibiotics (OR: 2.77 [2.35–3.27]) were the main risk factors associated with HAIs among TB hospitalized patients with a statistical significance (P < 0.05). Conclusions Age older than 60 years, presence of complications, presence of diabetes mellitus, invasive procedure, longer than 15 hospitalization days, secondary tuberculosis, smoking, presence of underlying disease, and use of antibiotics were the main risk factors which had a negative impact on HAIs among TB hospitalized patients in Chinese hospitals. These findings provided evidence for policy makers and hospital managers to make effective infection prevention and control measures to constrain the rising HAIs. It is also required that more cost-effective infection prevention and control measures should be widely applied in routinely medical treatment and clinical management to reduce the occurrence of HAIs among TB hospitalized patients.

BackgroundAs a chronic communicable disease, tuberculosis (TB) is acknowledged as a global public health issue. A comprehensive analysis of risk factors on HAIs among TB hospitalized patients in Chinese hospitals is vacant. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to investigate the risk factors associated with healthcare-associated TB in Chinese hospitals.MethodsMedline, EMBASE and Chinese Journals Online databases were searched. The search was limited to studies published from January 1st 2001 and December 31st 2020. Meta-analyses of ORs in the prevalence were estimated. Heterogeneity between studies was assessed based on the 𝝉2 and I2 statistics to select the meta-analysis model. Review Manager 5.3 was employed and P<0.05 was considered as the statistical significance.ResultsThe databases searched 418 records, of which 11 published articles were included in the quantitative meta-analysis. A total of 11,922 TB hospitalized patients were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis, of which 1,133 were diagnosed as having HAIs. Older than 65 years (OR: 2.89[2.01-4.15]), presence of complication (OR: 3.28[2.10-5.13]), presence of diabetes mellitus (OR: 1.63[1.22-2.19]), invasive procedure (OR: 3.80[2.25-6.42]), longer than 15 days of hospitalization stay (OR: 2.09[1.64-2.64]), secondary tuberculosis (OR: 2.25[1.48-3.42]), smoking (OR: 1.40[1.02-1.93]), presence of underlying disease (OR: 2.66[1.53-4.62]), and use of antibiotics (OR: 2.77[2.35-3.27])were the main risk factors associated with higher HAIs prevalence among TB hospitalized patients with a statistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusionsolder than 65 years, presence of complication, presence of diabetes mellitus, invasive procedure, longer than 15 days of hospitalization stay, secondary tuberculosis, smoking, presence of underlying disease, and use of antibiotics were the main risk factors which had a negative impact on HAIs among TB hospitalized patients in Chinese hospitals. These findings provided evidence for the policy makers and hospital managers to make effective infection prevention and control measures to constrain the rising of HAIs.

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a formidable global health challenge, representing a significant contributor to illness, mortality, and disability. Despite medical advancements, TB persists as the leading cause of death attributable to treatable infectious diseases, underscoring its enduring impact on public health worldwide. Objective: To assess the nutritional status among tuberculosis patients. Methods: A cross-sectional study encompassing both male and female participants was conducted. Out of the 205 participants involved, 115 were male and 90 were female, with an average age of 45 years. Our sample pool included both newly diagnosed and retreatment tuberculosis (TB) patients, and data gathering took place across various healthcare facilities within the Sahiwal district of Punjab, Pakistan. Results: Our research also found that patients with tuberculosis (TB) symptoms lasting over three months before diagnosis, were more prone to malnutrition compared to those with symptom durations. Additionally, our study indicated that 46.8% of the individuals involved in the research were malnourished. To sum up, our study underscores the link between health and TB among individuals. This study noted multiple factors like family size, income, education level, and other socioeconomic factors that affect tuberculosis outcomes and emphasized the importance of treatment outcomes. Conclusions: Detecting TB early and ensuring patients receive diagnosis and treatment is essential to prevent undernutrition from developing in TB patients
