Abstract |
Background: Although having Diabetes Mellitus (DM) might adversely affect tuberculosis (TB) treatment outcomes,
reduce the likelihood of a favorable outcome, studies are still limited to identify many problems related to DM.
Therefore, it aimed to explore factors that influenced on Type II (T2) DM among TB patients.
Objectives: To identify influencing factors on T2DM among TB patients
Method: An unmatched case control study conducted in the Yangon Region of Myanmar. Structured interview
questionnaires were used after obtaining informed consent. This study included 73 cases (TB patients with DM) and
146 controls (TB patients without DM) who had been under tuberculosis treatment in 2023. Unconditional
multivariable logistic regressions, crude odds ratios, and adjusted odds ratios (AOR) with 95% confidence intervals
and P-values < 0.05 were applied for significant association.
Results: Of the 219 TB patients, 112 (51.14%) were male and 107 (48.86%) were female. The study observed that
the risk factors of type 2 diabetes mellitus comorbidity among tuberculosis patients were: female TB patients (AOR=
2.84, 95% CI:1.36-5.94), aged 45 years and older (AOR = 3.04, 95% CI: 1.45-6.37), who were married
(AOR=2.28,95% CI:1.03-5.04), diagnosed by GeneXpert (AOR = 2.66, 95% CI:1.22-5.79), those who had a family
history of DM (AOR = 4.08, 95% CI: 1.94-8.58), and those who had BMI ≥25 (AOR = 9.00, 95% CI: 2.71-29.95).
Conclusion: Based on findings, DM was strongly associated with women TB patients, TB patients aged 45 years and
order, married TB patients, TB patients detected by GeneXpert result, TB patients had family history and an increasing
BMI. Therefore, encouraging health promotion on physical exercise, TB awareness campaign, pre-diabetes and
diabetes screening and management among TB patients is the crucial for the management of lifestyle and effective
measures for the TB and comorbid disease control program.
