Background and study aims
Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that has resulted in millions of deaths worldwide, especially in developing countries. Among the most important risk factors for the development of TB is infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the appearance of drug-resistant M tuberculosis (DR-MTB) strains has significantly complicated the prevention, control, and treatment actions of TB, becoming a threat to public health. In this regard, Sinaloa is a Northwest state in México, which has been identified as an endemic area for TB disease; notwithstanding, the prevalence is unknown, as well as the prevalence of DR-MTB in the HIV and T2DM populations. The objective of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of DR-MTB in patients with HIV or T2DM in Sinaloa, from the analysis of a database of the National Epidemiological Surveillance System (SINAVE) during the period 2019-2022.

Who can participate?
Patients aged between 18 and 85 years old with a positive diagnosis for pulmonary M tuberculosis in populations with HIV or T2DM, in which diagnosis was confirmed by the GeneXpert technique

What does the study involve?
This is not an interventional study and no clinical manipulation of patients is required. This cross-sectional and retrospective study will be involved the calculation of the prevalence of TB in HIV and T2DM groups, as well as the DR-MTB for rifampicin in both groups. Also, clinical, and demographic variables will be studied from the data recorded in the database of SINAVE.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
Benefits for the health service system in an endemic state will be obtained to identify risk factors and best-clinical management in HIV and T2DM populations diagnosed with TB. There are no risks related to patients.

Where is the study run from?
This study is a collaboration of the Health Services of Sinaloa, the State Public Health Laboratory of Sinaloa Autonomous University of Sinaloa, Faculty of Biological Chemistry Sciences (Mexico)

When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for?
January 2022 to January 2023

Who is funding the study?
National Council for Science and Technology Mexico (Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología México) (Mexico)

Scientific titlePrevalence of rifampicin drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in HIV and type 2 diabetic patients: A retrospective and cross-sectional study at endemic State Sinaloa Mexico
Study objectivesThe prevalence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (DR-MTB) in HIV and diabetic patients is higher compared with other groups affected by DR-MTB
Ethics approval(s)Approved 31/05/2022, General Hospital of Culiacan Ethics Committee (Aldama & Nayarit street, Culiacan, Sinaloa, 80230, Mexico; +52-6677169810; conbioetica.contacto@salud.gob.mx); ref: 000901
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedPrevalence of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (DR-MTB) in HIV and diabetic patients
InterventionData will be analysed from SINAVE, which integrates information from all over the country and from all the institutions of the National Health System (SNS). The information generated by SINAVE, is related to health, specific conditions, sociodemographic data, laboratory determination, geographical area, and previous or new pharmacological treatments, among others. The intervention of this database will be from January 2019 to February 2022 and limited to the Sinaloa State of Mexico.
The following characteristics of the patients registered in the clinical files that manage to meet all the inclusion criteria for this research study will be recorded and grouped, the variables to be evaluated will be the following: sex, age, weight, disease other than HIV or T2DM location of the disease, institution that provides care, form of diagnosis, smoking, alcoholism and drug addiction.
To calculate the prevalence of the disease, a record of the number of cases that occur in the population each year must be kept.
Clinical data from TB specimens that were positive at diagnosis using the GeneXpert MTB/RIF Dx System test version 4.7 will be analyzed.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measurePrevalence of rifampicin drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis, determined by a positive diagnosis using the GeneXpert MTB/RIF Dx System test version 4.7, recorded in the SINAVE database between January 2019 and February 2022
Secondary outcome measuresRecorded in the SINAVE database between January 2019 and February 2022:
1. Prevalence of TB/HIV, the following information will be used: p= number of events with the disease/total recorded events
2. Prevalence of TB/T2DM, the following information will be used: p= number of events with the disease/total recorded events
3. Prevalence of TB/T2DM drug resistance to rifampicin, the following information will be used: p= number of events with the disease/total recorded events
4. The correlation between suffering from the disease, HIV or T2DM with the presence of DR-TB, the prevalence ratio will be obtained and subsequently the prevalence odds ratio
5. Sociodemographic variables such as sex, age, weight, disease other than HIV or T2DM location of the disease, institution that provides care, the form of diagnosis, smoking, alcoholism and drug addiction will be recorded from the clinical history obtained from the SINAVE database
Overall study start date15/01/2022
