Objective:To explore the precision treatment effect of multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (MDR-PTB) based on the proportion method for drug susceptibility test, and to provide a scientific basis for formulating MDR-PTB treatment plan.Methods:One hundred and eighty patients with MDR-PTB treated in Shenzhen Center for Chronic Disease Control from January 5, 2016 to April 30, 2018 were enrolled. The initial treatment plan after diagnosis was six months of amikacin (AM), pyrazinamide (Z), levofloxacin (LFX), ethambutol (E), prothionamide (PTO) and 18 months of Z, LFX, E, PTO. According to whether proportion method for drug susceptibility test for 10 commonly used drugs was implemented, patients were divided into precision treatment group and empirical treatment group. In the precision treatment group, the treatment plans were adjusted according to the results of the drug susceptibility test. The treatment plans and disease outcomes of the two groups of patients were retrospectively analyzed. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis.Results:Among the 180 patients, there were 113 patients in the precision treatment group and 67 patients in the empirical treatment group. The drug resistance rates of the precision treatment group from low to high were: capromycin (CM) (0, 0/113), AM (2.65%, 3/113) and kanamycin (KM) (2.65%, 3/113), para-aminosalicylic acid (PAS) (7.96%, 9/113), PTO (11.50%, 13/113), ofloxacin (OFX)(38.05%, 43/113), E (39.82%, 45/113), and streptomycin(S) (76.99%, 87/113). In the precision treatment group, the drugs were adjusted for 104 person-times according to the proportion method for drug susceptibility test during the treatment, from low to high: AM (3 person-times), PTO (13 person-times), LFX (43 person-times) and E (45 person-times). The treatment success rate of the precision treatment group was 78.8%(89/113), which was higher than that of the experience treatment group (52.2%(35/67)), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=13.805, P=0.000 2). In the precision treatment group and empirical treatment group, there were no statistically significant differences of alanine aminotransferase elevated (32.3%(31/96) vs 34.0%(18/53)), serum creatinine elevated (4.2%(4/96) vs 5.7%(3/53)), and white blood cell count decreased (24.0%(23/96) vs 22.6%(12/53)) (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The traditional treatment plan based on the proportion method for drug susceptibility test has a high success rate in the treatment of MDR-PTB, which is still a worthy choice.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of newly diagnosed patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Shenzhen primary care.Methods:Random sampling was conducted in 10 jurisdictions of Shenzhen, permanent residents who were over 40 years old and lived for more than 6 months were included for lung function test, COPD Population Screener (COPD-PS) questionnaire and information survey, the prevalence of COPD was estimated, and statistical comparison was made between the two groups of subjects with newly diagnosed and previously diagnosed COPD.Results:Among 3 916 subjects, 3 591 had completed the whole screening process. The results showed that 280 COPD patients were diagnosed and the estimated standardized prevalence of COPD was 5.92% (95% CI: 4.05-8.34). Among them, 251 (89.64%) were newly diagnosed COPD patients and 29 (10.36%) were previously diagnosed COPD patients. Compared with previously diagnosed COPD, the proportion of female in the newly diagnosed COPD was higher (50.20% vs 10.34%, P<0.001), educational level in the newly diagnosed COPD was lower (the proportion of primary school and below was higher, 42.23% vs 20.69%, P=0.023), the proportion of those with frequent wheezing symptoms in the newly diagnosed COPD was lower (4.78% vs 51.72%, P<0.001), the proportion of those with mild degree of airway obstruction (GOLD 1) in the newly diagnosed COPD was higher (81.67% vs 20.69%, P<0.001). The detection rates of COPD-PS in newly diagnosed COPD and previously diagnosed COPD were 43.03% and 41.38% respectively. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of COPD-PS was 0.705. Conclusion:The phenomenon of insufficient diagnosis of COPD in Shenzhen primary care is common and we should vigorously popularize pulmonary function examination.
