背景资料:严重的治疗相关不良事件被认为在合并感染HIV的结核病(TB)患者中更常见。进行了一项研究,以评估严重(III/IV级)不良事件和抗结核治疗的中断在有效的抗逆转录病毒疗法的时代。方法:严重不良事件的发生率进行了回顾性比较,在312个人治疗结核病,其中156人合并感染艾滋病毒。111名艾滋病毒感染者(71%)在接受抗结核治疗的同时接受了高效抗逆转录病毒治疗。40%的HIV感染者和26%的HIV未感染者记录了严重不良事件(p=0.008)。周围神经病变和持续呕吐在合并感染患者中更常见(p < 0.001; p = 0.006),尽管两组中抗TB治疗的全因中断发生率相似(HIV感染患者为13%,HIV未感染患者为15%; p = 0.74)。在85%的HIV感染者和87%的HIV未感染者中,这是由于肝毒性,通常在开始治疗后2个月内出现。中位延迟重新开始治疗是4周,所以大多数人需要充分结核re-treatment.Conclusion:尽管更大的严重(III/IV级)不良事件的发生率在HIV感染者,抗结核治疗的中断发生在HIV感染者和HIV未感染者的频率相似。
Background: Serious treatment associated adverse events are thought to occur more frequently in individuals with tuberculosis ( TB) who are co-infected with HIV. A study was undertaken to assess the frequency of serious (grade III/IV) adverse events and interruption of anti-TB treatment in the era of effective antiretroviral therapy.Methods: The incidence of serious adverse events was retrospectively compared in 312 individuals treated for TB, 156 of whom were co-infected with HIV.Results: 111 HIV infected individuals (71%) received highly active antiretroviral therapy at the same time as anti-TB treatment. Serious adverse events were recorded in 40% HIV infected and 26% HIV uninfected individuals (p=0.008). Peripheral neuropathy and persistent vomiting were more common in co-infected patients (p < 0.001; p = 0.006), although all cause interruption of anti-TB treatment occurred with similar frequency in the two groups (13% in HIV infected patients and 15% in HIV uninfected patients; p = 0.74). In 85% of HIV infected patients and 87% of HIV uninfected individuals this was due to hepatotoxicity, which typically presented within 2 months of starting treatment. The median delay in restarting treatment was 4 weeks, so most individuals required full TB re-treatment.Conclusion: Despite a greater rate of serious (grade III/IV) adverse events among HIV infected individuals, discontinuation of anti-TB treatment occurred with a similar frequency in HIV infected and HIV uninfected individuals.
