          Abstract

          O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar as causas múltiplas de morte de uma coorte de pacientes notificados com tuberculose (TB) e apresentar uma proposta de investigação de causas presumíveis. Realizou-se linkage probabilístico entre o Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN) 2006 e o Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade (SIM), 2006-2008. Ocorreram 825 mortes, das quais 23% por TB, 16% com TB e 61% sem menção da TB. Duzentos e quinze (42,7%) óbitos ocorreram antes do término do esquema básico de tratamento e não tinham menção da TB, cujo perfil foi distinto do padrão quando a TB era uma das causas associadas. A elevada frequência de doenças do aparelho respiratório, AIDS e causas mal definidas sugerem falha na qualidade da informação. Elaborou-se proposta de correção das causas associadas no SIM e de investigação de óbito com base na relação de causas presumíveis. De acordo com a proposta, 26 óbitos poderiam ter a causa básica modificada. Este estudo destaca a gravidade do quadro da TB e a importância do linkage para a vigilância da TB e melhoria das informações do SIM e do SINAN.

          The objective of this study was to analyze the multiple causes of death in a cohort of patients with tuberculosis (TB) and to introduce an investigation proposal death for TB from a list of presumable causes. We performed a probabilistic record linkage with the databases of the Information System for Notifiable Diseases (SINAN) 2006 and the Mortality Information System (SIM) 2006-2008. There were 825 deaths, of which 23% for death for TB, deaths due to TB with 16% and 61% without mention of TB. Two hundred and fifteen (42.7%) deaths occurred within the period of treatment, whose profile differed from the pattern of causes when TB was an associated cause, with high frequency of respiratory diseases, AIDS and ill-defined causes. We elaborated a proposal for correction of associated causes of death and an investigation proposal death for TB from a list of presumable causes. According to the proposal, 26 deaths could have modified the underlying cause. This study highlights the importance of record linkage to TB surveillance and improvement of information the SIM and SINAN.

          El objetivo fue analizar las múltiples causas de muerte en una cohorte de pacientes con tuberculosis (TB) y presentar una propuesta de investigación de las causas presumibles. Hicieron linkage probabilística entre el Sistema de Información de Enfermedades de Declaración Obligatoria (SINAN) 2006 y el Sistema de Información sobre Mortalidad (SIM) 2006-2008. 825 muertes, de las cuales 23% para TB, 16% con TB y 61% sin mención de TB. Doscientos quince (42,7%) muertes ocurrieron antes del final de el tratamiento primario y tenía ninguna mención de TB, cuyo perfil era distinto del patrón observado cuando la TB era una causa asociada. La alta frecuencia de enfermedades respiratorias, SIDA y causas mal definidas sugieren insuficiencia en la calidad de la información. Hemos preparado propuestas de corrección de la causa asociada en el SIM y de investigación de muerte basado en las causas presumibles. De acuerdo con la propuesta, 26 muertes podrían haber modificado la causa subyacente. Destacase la gravedad de la TB y la importancia de el linkage para la vigilancia y la mejora de la información en el SIM y SINAN-TB.

              Impact of diabetes mellitus on treatment outcomes of patients with active tuberculosis.

              Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an emerging chronic health condition of developed and developing countries. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with active, culture-confirmed tuberculosis (TB) in Maryland to determine the impact of DM on TB treatment outcomes. Of 297 TB patients, 42 (14%) had DM. Patients with diabetes had 2.0 times higher odds of death than patients without diabetes (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.74-5.2, P = 0.18). Adjusting for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), age, weight, and foreign birth, the odds of death were 6.5 times higher in patients with diabetes than patients without diabetes (95% CI 1.1-38.0, P = 0.039). In pulmonary TB patients, time to sputum culture conversion was longer in patients with diabetes than patients without diabetes (median 49 versus 39 days, P = 0.09). Two-month culture conversion proportions were similar (70% and 69%). Treatment failure occurred in 4.1% of patients without diabetes and 6.7% of patients with diabetes (P = 0.51). In conclusion, DM was a risk factor for death in Maryland TB patients. There was a trend toward increased time to culture conversion; two-month culture conversion proportions, however, were similar.
