Objective: To explore the influencing factors of the adverse outcome of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) among adolescents in Hangzhou City between 2005 and 2020. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was used to collect the information of adolescent PTB patients with the onset of PTB occurring from January 1, 2005 to December 31 in 12 designated tuberculosis hospitals in Hangzhou, mainly including demographic, epidemiological, clinical manifestations, bacteriological characteristics and other data, through the China Management Information System for Infectious Disease Surveillance and Reporting and the follow-up survey. All patients were followed up and the end time was December 31, 2021. Multivariate Cox regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting the adverse outcome of these patients. Results: The mean age of 4 921 adolescent PTB patients was (18.9±3.6) years old, and the number of male and female patients were 3 074 and 1 847 respectively. The adverse outcome accounted for 14.7% (725) of all patients. Multivariate Cox regression model showed that eight risk factors, including management model from patients themselves or family members ( HR =5.87, 95% CI : 4.55-7.64), molecular biology examination positive for PTB ( HR =4.62, 95% CI : 2.98-7.19), the number of sputum smears-positive≥1 ( HR =3.72, 95% CI : 2.87-4.83), non-standardized therapy regimens of PTB ( HR =3.69, 95% CI : 2.95-4.64), history of retreated PTB ( HR =2.22, 95% CI : 1.46-3.36), migrant adolescents ( HR =1.89, 95% CI : 1.54-2.34), the number of chest X-ray scan ( HR =1.83, 95% CI : 1.65-2.04), and severe PTB ( HR =1.38, 95% CI : 1.02-2.05), were associated with the adverse outcome of adolescent PTB patients. Age ( HR =0.94, 95% CI : 0.92-0.96), as the only protective factor, was associated with the adverse outcome of these patients. Conclusion: The management mode, molecular biological examination, chemotherapy program, history of tuberculosis, sputum smear examination, severity of tuberculosis, household residence, chest X-ray examination and age are associated with the adverse outcomes of adolescent PTB patients in Hangzhou. |
