ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The epidemic of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) poses a great challenge to pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) control. However, the incidence and prevalence of PTB among T2DM patients has not been fully determined. This meta-analysis aimed to provide the estimation on the global incidence and prevalence of PTB among T2DM patients (T2DM-PTB).METHODS:
Online databases including Web of Science, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Cochrane Library were searched for all relevant studies that reported the incidence or prevalence of T2DM-PTB through 31 January 2022. Pooled incidence and prevalence of T2DM-PTB with 95% confidence interval (CI) was estimated by the random-effect model. All statistical analyses were performed using R software.RESULTS:
A total of 24 studies (14 cohort studies, 10 cross-sectional studies) were included. The pooled incidence and prevalence of T2DM-PTB were 129.89 per 100,000 person-years (95% confidence interval (CI) 97.55-172.95) and 511.19 per 100,000 (95% CI 375.94-695.09), respectively. Subgroup analyses identified that the incidence of T2DM-PTB was significantly higher in Asia (187.20 per 100,000 person-years, 95% CI 147.76-237.17), in countries with a high TB burden (172.04 per 100,000 person-years, 95% CI 122.98-240.68) and in studies whose data collection ended before 2011 (219.81 per 100,000 person-years, 95% CI 176.15-274.28), but lower in studies using International Classification of Diseases-10 codes (73.75 per 100,000 person-years, 95% CI 40.92-132.91). The prevalence of T2DM-PTB was significantly higher in countries with a high TB burden (692.15 per 100,000, 95% CI 468.75-1022.04), but lower in Europe (105.01 per 100,000, 95% CI 72.55-151.98).CONCLUSIONS:
This systematic review and meta-analysis suggests high global incidence and prevalence of PTB among T2DM patients, underlining the necessity of more preventive interventions among T2DM patients especially in countries with a high TB-burden. Key messagesA total of 24 studies (14 cohort studies, 10 cross-sectional studies) containing 2,569,451 T2DM patients were included in this meta-analysis.The pooled incidence and prevalence of T2DM-PTB are 129.89 per 100,000 person-years (95% CI 97.55-172.95) and 511.19 per 100,000 (95% CI 375.94-695.09) respectively.The incidence of T2DM-PTB was significantly higher in Asia, in countries with a high TB burden and in studies whose data collection ended before 2011, but lower in studies using International Classification of Diseases-10 codes.The prevalence of T2DM-PTB was significantly higher in countries with a high TB-burden, but lower in Europe.Palavras-chave
