DISTRIBUTION OF DRUG SENSITIVE TUBERCULOSIS BY SEX, AGE GROUPS AND TYPE OF DISEASE IN DS-TB POPULATION OF DISTRICT D.I.KHAN, PAKISTAN
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is the 10th leading cause of death globally and is leading cause of death from a single infectious disease. The objectives of our study were to determine the distribution of drug sensitive tuberculosis (DS-TB) by sex, age groups and type of disease in DS-TB population of District D.I.Khan, Pakistan.Materials Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Department of Community Medicine, Gomal Medical College, D.I.Khan, Pakistan from January 5, 2021 to January 25, 2021. The data of 3,916 patients was retrieved from District Health Office, D.I.Khan for the period from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020. Sex, age groups and type of disease were categorical variables and analyzed by count and percentage with CI at 95%CL. Distribution of DR-TB by sex, age groups and type of disease was analyzed separately by chi-square goodness-of-fit test at alpha .05. Results: Out of 3,916 patients with DS-TB, women 2,110 (53.88%, 95% CI 52.32-55.44) were more than men 1,806 (46.12%, 95%CI 44.55-47.67), with most common age group of 15-44 years 1,948 (49.74%, 95%CI 48.17-51.31), and with more pulmonary 2,877 (73.47%, 95%CI 72.08-74.85%) than extrapulmonary 1,039 (26.53%, 95%CI 25.14-27.91) cases. Our observed prevalence of DS-TB in men was lower 46.12% than expected 51.72% and in women it was higher 53.88% than expected 48.28% (p.00001). Our observed distribution of DS-TB in different age groups was not similar to expected (p.00001). Our observed prevalence of pulmonary TB was lower 73.47% than expected 80.35% and in extrapulmonary TB it was higher 26.53% than expected 19.65% (p.00001).Conclusions: Drug sensitive tuberculosis was more common in women than men in DS-TB population of District D.I.Khan, Pakistan. It was highest in age group 15-44 years and higher for pulmonary TB than extrapulmonary TB. Our observed prevalence in men was lower than expected and in women it was higher than expected. Our observed prevalence for drug sensitive TB in various age groups was different than expected. Our observed prevalence for pulmonary TB was lower than expected and for extrapulmonary TB it was higher than expected.
