Objective:To investigate the risk factors of diabetes mellitus complicated by pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods:The clinical data of 83 patients with diabetes mellitus complicated by pulmonary tuberculosis who received treatment in Taiyuan Fourth People's Hospital from March 2020 to March 2022 were collected. These patients were divided into sensitive group ( n = 45) and resistant group ( n = 38 ) according to the results of drug sensitivity test. Univariate and multivariate non-conditional logistic regression was performed to analyze the influential factors of drug resistance. Results:Univariate logistic regression results revealed that there were significant differences in blood CD4 +T lymphocyte count ( χ2 = 11.73, P = 0.001) and diabetic complications ( χ2 = 4.94, P = 0.026). Multivariate non-conditional logistic regression analysis was performed taking whether blood CD4 +T lymphocyte count was lower than the average level and whether patients with diabetes mellitus had complications as independent variables, and taking whether drug resistance was a dependent variable. The results showed that the OR (95% CI) value of the decreased blood CD4 +T lymphocyte count was 4.909 (1.926-12.514). It is a risk factor for drug resistance of diabetes mellitus complicated by pulmonary tuberculosis. Conclusion:The decrease of blood CD4 +T lymphocyte count is a risk factor of drug resistance in diabetes mellitus complicated by pulmonary tuberculosis, and it should be intervened early in the clinic.

kV X-ray radiotherapy was the primary mode of radiotherapy widely used to treat many types of cancer, including deep tumors, before the invention of the Co-60 therapy machine and the electron linear accelerator, which gradually replaced kV X-ray radiotherapy. kV X-ray radiotherapy equipment requires less space and shielding, and still has application value in the treatment of skin lesions and superficial tumors. Especially in recent years, kV X-ray has been used in the treatment of keloid, and electronic brachytherapy equipment has been used in intracavitary, intraoperative, and superficial radiotherapy. Therefore, kV X-ray radiotherapy has seen renewed application. The quality control of kV X-ray radiotherapy equipment is the key to ensure the treatment effect and safety of patients. This paper reviews the current status of quality control of kV X-ray radiotherapy equipment and provides a reference for the formulation of quality control assessment standards for kV X-ray radiotherapy equipment.
