DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 26.11.2019 The article reviews issues related to the development of multidrug resistance (MDR) of somatic cells in macroorganisms, which results in reducing effectiveness of TB drugs, including rifampicin. We highlight the history of resistance development and ways to overcome it in cancer patients. We survey the main transporter proteins responsible for delivery of drugs or other substrates across cell membranes. The most universal transporter is P-glycoprotein (Pgp) with the widest range of substrates; it provides the highest levels of MDR somatic cells and predicts a negative outcome of cancer. The article gives the examples of the first foreign and Russian publications related to increasing gene expression of MDR associated somatic cell proteins in the experiment, in clinical pulmonary TB, and under TB treatment. TB drugs are considered as modulators of endocytosis and activity of MDR associated proteins. We hypothesize that there could be synergism between M. tuberculosis ATP-binding transporters and a host’s MDR somatic cells. The article was prepared under basic research topic no. 0515-2019-0015 “The development of drug resistance of mycobacteria and somatic cells to TB drugs”. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 02.12.2019 Aim: To revise the methods of calculation of per capita funding rates related to TB control activities, and monitor the rates related to funding of TB control activities and the state of main funds of TB institutions. Based on a single statistical observation form, we analyzed the rates of dynamic funding of TB control activities from different sources, the state and the update of the main funds of TB institutions. The total amount of funding was compared to the data from different countries provided by the WHO global database. The amount of funding for TB control activities in the Russian Federation was 94.5–93.1 billion roubles, or 1450.7 billion USD, which was more than in any other country. This allowed rapid reduction of TB incidence. The inclusion of antiretroviral drugs in the calculation of per capita funding rates in some Russian regions accounted for a 3–5% error. The methods currently used for per capita funding calculation did not consider discrepancies in medical care costs in different regions, which made an illusion of favourable funding of the Far East regions. In 2018 we observed unprecedented growth of salaries and other payments to health personnel, especially physicians. At the same time, updating of the main funds decreased resulting in the wear of equipment and vehicles. The share of TB control activities funding by the Russian Federation Subjects increased, since they were responsible for payments to health personnel. In order to harmonize the Russian and international definitions of the rate: “funding of TB control activities”, it was recommended to introduce a system of financial monitoring of TB control activities without consideration of antiretroviral drugs, since it had resulted in overestimating TB control activities funding in the Russian Federation by 1.8%. The calculation of per capita funding rates by the Russian Federation Subjects should use the differentiation coefficient. Underfunding of updating the main funds of TB institutions resulted in high wear of equipment and vehicles, which could negatively influence TB control in general. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 05.12.2019 Aim: To study the peculiarities of TB process in herpesvirus infection (HVI) patients with a negative or positive HIV status. Materials and methods. We carried out a pilot case-control study of 350 TB patients. To establish a possible cause of acute TB progression, we studied patients’ blood sera and cells for opportunistic infection markers to detect antibodies to herpesviruses and their antigens. Results. The high level of infection (up to 97%) was established in both HIV-positive and HIV-negative TB patients. We discovered the association between drug resistance of M. tuberculosis and HVI activity markers. Conclusion. Patients with advanced pulmonary TB and detected markers of HVI activity should undergo additional examinations, and patients with confirmed HVI should be considered for administration of antiviral drugs. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 16.12.2019 In the WHO consolidated guidelines on drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) treatment [5] the study of optimization of treatment for isoniazid-resistant TB with confirmed sensitivity to rifampicin and additional resistance to other drugs is considered as one of the priority areas of research. To investigate the clinical course and the treatment efficacy in isoniazid-resistant TB patients we carried out a retrospective analysis of 650 case histories of HIV-negative patients with different spectra of drug resistance. We established that in 58.9% of patients isoniazid-resistant TB was diagnosed during retreatment, and in 48.6% of patients this disease had infiltrative form. Different extent lung lesions were equally frequent in isoniazid-resistant patients, with some tendency to segmental or lobar localizations. We observed multiple cavities in 58.8% of patients; in 49.5% cavity size reached 2–4 cm. There were 15 variants of the isoniazid-resistance spectrum; HSE and HSEKm dominated. The case histories of 53.9% of MDR TB patients showed isoniazid-resistant spectra of M. tuberculosis. Sputum conversion by the end of the 8th month of treatment was observed in 49.7% of patients with resistance to isoniazid, cavity closure – in 38.3% of such patients. We established that M. tuberculosis resistance to isoniazid was associated with severe clinical and radiological presentations; treatment efficacy in such patients was lower than that in drug-susceptible patients by 20–25%. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 10.12.2019 The TB incidence rate in patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease (ESKD) exceeds the similar rate in the general population ten times. The absence of typical radiological semiotics hinders TB diagnostics in such patients. We analyzed the radiological data from 80 ESKD patients with newly detected changes in the lungs and/or the intoxication syndrome of unclear genesis. The investigation revealed TB in 61.25% of the patients: 40% had active TB, and 21.25% had residual post-TB changes in the lungs. Chronic non-tuberculous pulmonary diseases were diagnosed in 38.75% of the patients. We established low informativity of plain chest radiography compared to computed tomography (CT) scanning of the chest in ESKD patients. These methods allowed diagnosing infiltrative (23.75% vs. 48.75%) and focal (71.25% vs. 17.5%) changes in the lungs, which indicated the necessity to perform CT scanning for all ESKD patients with presumed TB. The detection of infiltrative and focal changes in the lungs or their combination witnessed a pulmonary disease, which required immediate diagnostics, but such changes were not pathognomonic for TB. The analysis of CT data allowed determining a number of radiological signs typical for active pulmonary TB in ESKD patients. It was essential for TB diagnostics in this category of immunocompromised individuals. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 10.12.2019 TB is one of the most common secondary diseases during late stage HIV infection; TB causes severe damages in different anatomical sites and is responsible for many lethal outcomes. According to the accepted standards, administration of antiretroviral therapy (ART) is indicated for all patients with HIV/TB co-infection. However, different obstacles may affect this option. For example, the intoxication syndrome development after ART commencement at the 4th stage of HIV is a frequent indication for ART discontinuation. It is necessary to develop simple criteria for predicting ART effectiveness in HIV/TB co-infected patients. Aim: To improve treatment effectiveness in HIV/TB co-infected patients based on lipid exchange rates. Materials and methods. We studied the lipid spectrum of the blood serum from patients with HIV/TB coinfection. Patients were divided in three groups. We studied cholesterol levels, some phospholipid fractions in the blood serum from 50 healthy individuals (control group), 50 HIV/TB patients on TB treatment without ART (group 1), 50 HIV/TB patients with preserved drug sensitivity on TB treatment with ART (group 2), 50 HIV/TB patients with multidrug resistance (MDR) on TB treatment with ART (group 3). Results. ART decreased the level of cholesterol, which was a nutrient for M. tuberculosis. The lowest level of cholesterol was reached in MDR TB patients. Based on the study outcomes, we have developed a method for predicting ART effectiveness in HIV/TB patients: the numeric value of cholesterol-to-triglyceride ratio less than 5.0 is a marker of ART effectiveness (Patent no. 2 666 233 of 06.09.2018). |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 12.12.2019 The research is relevant due to the necessity to characterize the hypercoagulation syndrome with intravascular coagulation and assess morphological changes in the microcircular bed in the lungs of TB patients with concomitant diabetes mellitus (DM) after surgical intervention. Aim: To determine the variability of the hemostasis system indicators, the morphological peculiarities of the pulmonary microcirculation of TB/DM patients depending on the scope of lung surgery. Materials and methods. We analyzed the clinical and laboratory data of 89 TB/DM patients after different scope lung surgery. The patients were divided in 3 groups depending on the scope of lung surgery and compared by intraoperative blood loss. The patients of group 1 underwent lung segmental resection, group 2 – pneumonectomy, group 3 – lobectomy. The hypercoagulation syndrome course was determined by the coagulogram indicators, and the pulmonary microcirculatory bed was studied morphologically. Results. We demonstrated the general tendency in all studied groups – the markers of hypercoagulation started to increase 3–5 days after surgery. By day 20–22, we observed a decrease in the hypercoagulation syndrome markers; however, they still exceeded the baseline values. The most expressive changes in the hemostasis indicators typical for the hypercoagulation syndrome were observed in TB/DM patients after lobectomy. Conclusion. The obtained results can be used to develop anticoagulation therapy regimens. The article was prepared under scientific research topic no. 0515-2019-0017 “The modern methods of surgical treatment of pulmonary TB with concomitant diabetes mellitus.” |
