    未经批准:广泛耐药结核病(XDR-TB)被认为是对全球健康的主要威胁。本研究旨在分析广泛耐药结核病患者的治疗结果,并确定与不良治疗结果显著相关的因素。
    UNASSIGNED:我们在巴基斯坦国家结核病控制计划的10个计划管理单位进行了一项回顾性观察研究。电子名义记录报告系统记录用于收集2012年3月至2018年8月在研究中心登记的所有合格的XDR-TB患者的数据。根据标准标准分析治疗结果。采用多元二元logistic回归分析与不良治疗结果相关的因素。
    未经证实:在总共184名患者中,59(32.1%)成功完成了治疗。由此,83例(45.1%)死亡,24人(13%)治疗失败,11例(6%)失访.7例(3.8%)患者未评估治疗结果。与不利的治疗结果显著相关的因素包括;常规治疗与bedaquiline,不利的中期治疗结果和不良药物事件的发生(负关联)。
    未经评估:研究队列中的治疗成功率次优(即,<75%)。低成功率和高死亡率令人担忧,并需要项目经理和临床医生的立即关注。
    UNASSIGNED: Extensively drug resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) is considered as a major threat to global health. This study aimed to analyse the treatment outcomes and identify the factors significantly associated with unfavourable treatment outcomes among XDR-TB patients.
    UNASSIGNED: We conducted a retrospective observational study at 10 Programmatic Management Units of the National Tuberculosis Control Program of Pakistan. The Electronic Nominal Recording Reporting System records were used to collect data of all eligible XDR-TB patients registered at the study sites between March 2012 and August 2018. Treatment outcomes were analysed as per the standard criteria. Factors associated with unfavourable treatment outcomes were analysed by using multivariate binary logistic regression analysis.
    UNASSIGNED: Out of the total 184 patients, 59 (32.1%) completed their treatment successfully. Whereby, 83 patients (45.1%) died, 24 (13%) had treatment failure, and 11 (6%) were lost to follow-up. Treatment outcomes were not evaluated in 7 (3.8%) patients. Factors significantly associated with unfavourable treatment outcomes included; conventional therapy with bedaquiline, unfavourable interim treatment outcomes and occurrence of adverse drug events (negative association).
    UNASSIGNED: Treatment success rate in the study cohort was sub-optimal (i.e., <75%). The poor success rate and high mortality are concerning, and requires immediate attention of the program managers and clinicians.

    结核病(TB)是世界范围内的主要死亡原因之一,特别是在低收入和中等收入国家。全球耐药结核病的发病率和数量正在上升。随着全球化的加剧,结核病耐药菌株的传播已成为全球公共卫生问题。我们介绍了一例先前在印度接受过耐多药(MDR)TB治疗的年轻人,他在美国出现神经系统症状和中枢神经系统TB。他的案例突出了独特的诊断和治疗挑战,随着感染耐药结核病和复杂肺外疾病的患者的增加,这些挑战可能变得更加普遍。
    Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. The global rates and numbers of drug resistant TB are rising. With increasing globalization, the spread of drug-resistant strains of TB has become a mounting global public health concern. We present a case of a young man previously treated for multi-drug resistant (MDR) TB in India who presented with neurological symptoms and central nervous system TB in the United States. His case highlights unique diagnostic and treatment challenges that are likely to become more commonplace with the increase of patients infected with drug-resistant TB and complicated extrapulmonary disease.
