Objectives
To determine tuberculosis (TB) recurrence in previously successfully treated patients in routine program setting and baseline characteristics associated with TB recurrence.
Methods
A prospective longitudinal study in Jiangxi Province, China. Patients, ≥14 years old, were consecutively registered and were followed-up for 7-year to assess...
Objective
Many important risk factors are associated with tuberculosis (TB) recurrence; among them, smoking is the most common and modifiable behavioural factor. We aimed to assess the association of smoking status and cessation support during anti-TB treatment with subsequent TB recurrence.
Method
A 7-year prospective cohort study was performed o...
Introduction
Smoking cessation should be part of tuberculosis (TB) treatment, but
a cessation service is not available as part of a routine TB service in most low- and
middle-income countries. WHO and The International Union Against Tuberculosis
and Lung Disease (The Union) issued a guideline and China implemented a pilot
project 5 years ago. This...

... On the other hand, the female sex was not a predictor of TB recurrence, implying that other vari- ables, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), could be confounding factors. Previous research has revealed that smoking, drinking, and being underweight are risk factors for TB recurrence [29][30][31][32] . However, we lacked information on these variables. ...
... All the cases were included in the study (Fig 1). All patients were white, 251 (80.7%) were male and the median age was 40 years (IQR [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45]. The sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of study participants are shown in Tables 1 and 2. ...
... Au 6ème mois de suivi il était observé des taux d'abandon ou d'échec du traitement antituberculeux plus faibles mais une amélioration plus importante de la qualité de vie chez les patients pris en charge pour sevrage tabagique et traitement de la tuberculose comparativement à ceux qui ne bénéficiaient que du traitement antituberculeux [90][91]. En Chine, une étude longitudinale prospective menée chez des patients tuberculeux, a montré que les non-fumeurs, les ex-fumeurs et les fumeurs actuels qui avaient bénéficié d'une intervention de sevrage dès le diagnostic de tuberculose étaient plus fréquemment abstinents 5 ans après la fin du traitement antituberculeux que ceux qui n'avaient 15 pas reçu cette intervention [94]. En Indonésie, une intervention d'aide à l'arrêt comprenant le conseil d'arrêt, un soutien à l'arrêt intégré à la DOT a abouti à des taux élevés d'arrêt du tabac, une prise de conscience des effets néfastes sur la santé de l'exposition au tabagisme passif conduisait les patients à cesser de fumer au domicile [95]. ...
