DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 04.06.2019 Aim: to assess the role of mass or individual screening for TB in children from known or unknown TB infection sources. Materials and methods. We studied 72 children (aged 3–12) with active pulmonary TB in 2012–2017. We divided them in two groups: group 1 – 43 children, who had not been followed up during contact tracing before TB detection; group 2 – 29 children, who had been followed up during contact tracing before TB detection. Results. We found defects in organization of mass skin testing: in 43.1% of cases skin testing with 2 TU PPD-L was performed less than once a year; conversion of skin reactions was not reported in 71.9% of cases. We also found defects in dispensary follow-up of group 2: first, 17.2% of cases were studied twice a year during the 1st year of contact tracing, other cases (82.8%) – once a year at least; second, 86.2% of cases underwent testing with recombinant tuberculosis allergen (RTA) at registration, 85.7% – after one year of follow-up, 71.4% – after 2 years of follow-up. In group 2, TB was detected in 51.7% of cases after one year, 10.3% – after 2 years, 38.0% – later; in all these cases TB was detected by chest CT. The terms and indications for chest CT were determined randomly in most cases (80.0%). The symptoms in cases detected by chest CT were either absent or slight. Screening detection of TB prevailed in the both groups: group 1 – 74.4% (37.2% by simultaneous study of contacts and the index case; 37.2% by mass skin testing), group 2 – 89.7% (75.9% during contact tracing, 13.8% by mass skin testing). At the same time, in 25.6% cases of group 1 and 10.3% cases of group 2 TB was detected at referrals to medical institutions and had acute onset. There were no differences between the groups by detection methods (χ2 = 5,684, р > 0.05). Conclusion. The main causes of late TB detection in children were improper organization of screening or dispensary followup. The algorithm of studies (indications, terms) including chest CT for children from TB risk group should be expanded and focused on both positive reactions to RTA and dynamic changes of skin testing results, consider a family social status, a clinical form and course of TB in the index case. The research was performed under scientific theme № 0515-2019-0016 “Personalized approaches to the treatment of respiratory TB in children and adolescents”. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 14.06.2019 Improvement in childhood TB incidence is closely related to the major early TB detection efforts confirmed by active TB detection in 84.4% of cases, including with the use of tuberculin diagnosis and Diaskintest. The TB diagnostics was performed in 88.5% of patients under observation in the follow-up diagnostic group “0”.In every second child (54.1%), the diagnosis of active tuberculosis was confirmed by the chest computer tomography examination. Among clinical forms, TB of the intrathoracic lymph nodes was most prevalent; TB forms with complications were diagnosed in 15.8% of cases. Every third child with tuberculosis had a history of contact with a TB patient. At the same time, the index cases were diagnosed with multidrug and extensively drug resistant M. tuberculosis in 73.7% of cases. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 17.06.2019 The cohort prospective study included 50 patients aged 13–17 under surgical treatment of respiratory tuberculosis (TB) provided at the CTRI between 2015–2017. Drug susceptibility data at the admission were obtained in 35 of 50 cases, of which 18 (51.4%) had multidrug/extensively drug resistant (MDR/XDR) tuberculosis. Based on the results of the microbiological examinations of surgical specimens, MDR was newly detected in 3 cases. Criteria developed for selection of proper duration of chemotherapy (CT) can be used in patients with MDR/XDR M. tuberculosis. Of 21 patients after surgical treatment, 3 received chemotherapy for 3 months, 8 – for 6 months, and 9 – for more than 6 months. In one case, chemotherapy was not performed due to the development of pancreatitis. Both the ffectiveness and safety of the designed regimens were proved by the absence of relapses a year after the completion of the main course of chemotherapy. The research was performed under scientific theme № 0515-2019-0016 “Personalized approaches to the treatment of respiratory TB in children and adolescents”. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 01.10.2018 The aim of the research was to investigate the peculiarities of therapeutic cooperation between parents and health providers during inpatient treatment of children with pulmonary TB. Materials and methods. The research enrolled 114 parents of children aged 3–12. The children had been admitted to hospital with diagnosed pulmonary TB and received inpatient treatment for 2–18 months. To assess the cooperation between parents and health providers, we developed a questionnaire, which outlined the main parameters of parents’ attitude to the treatment situation and the peculiarities of cooperation with health providers. The attending physician performed ranged quantitative assessment at the initial stage of chemotherapy and after 2–4 months of hospital treatment. Based on the complex analysis of the obtained data, we determined three groups of parents with low, satisfactory or high level of therapeutic cooperation. Results. We established that parents with high or satisfactory level of cooperation reliably prevailed (40.4% in each group) versus parents with low level of compliance (19.2%) (р < 0.05). We also established that high compliance was associated with stable parameters of therapeutic cooperation (81.4%). The level of therapeutic cooperation was determined by the parent’s attitude to the child’s treatment in hospital. We described the peculiarities of therapeutic cooperation with parents, who had different attitudes to hospital treatment. Conclusion. The therapeutic cooperation between parents and health providers was determined by the family social status and the circumstances of the child’s treatment (referrals from other Russian regions or former Soviet republics). The research was performed under scientific theme № 0515-2015-0001 “Psychological aspects of pulmonary TB treatment in children from TB infection sources or social risk groups”. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 03.02.2019 We studied the relationship between TB infection and croup syndrome in children. The study of 304 children revealed that in 94–96% of cases the first croup episode coincided with the early period of M. tuberculosis infection. TB incidence among children with recurrent croup reached 27%. The termination of croup episodes under TB treatment was observed in 82% of cases, which confirmed the influence of TB infection on early or recurrent course of croup in children. The study established that children with croup syndrome compose a high-risk group for TB. TB infection, as well as active TB, contribute to recurrent course of croup. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 01.02.2019 Aim: To study the epidemiological situation and the factors contributing to development of fibro-cavernous pulmonary TB (FCPT); characterize patients, who received surgical treatment at the Central TB Research Institute (CTRI). Materials and methods. We analyzed the data from a single statistical observation, studied reporting forms no. 33 and no. 8 containing the information about the number of notified TB cases with cavities and FCPT obtained from several Russian regions in 2014–2017. We performed a retrospective analysis of 436 case records of FCPT patients admitted to CTRI in 2014–2017 for surgery. Results. Late detection of FCPT was conditioned by quality of preventive screenings, diagnostic methods applied in the Russian regions, performance of primary medical institutions. The prevalence of FCPT significantly varied in different regions due to local specific conditions and differences in organization of TB services. Effectiveness of FCPT treatment was not high due to: a large proportion of treatment interruption cases; a large proportion of multi-drug resistant cases; non-adherence to treatment standards; and poor organization of directly-observed treatment. Surgery for FCPT tends to grow; recently the volume of surgical interventions has twice increased but remains insufficient. Application of surgical methods increases treatment effectiveness to 91.5%. The study was performed under research theme № 0515-2019-0015 “Modern approaches to diagnosis, epidemiology and management of drug resistant pulmonary TB, including HIV-associated and diabetes mellitus-associated TB”. |

DESCRIPTION OF ARTICLE: | Submitted as of 18.01.2019 We review the current classifications of adverse events induced by administration of antituberculosis drugs. Immunologically mediated adverse events, allergies or delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions, account for the smallest share of all druginduced reactions. Based on the chemical structure of drugs, adverse reactions are divided into immunoglobulin E-mediated reactions, immunoglobulin G3-mediated reactions, immunocomplex-mediated reactions, and T-cell-mediated reactions. The latter type reactions are divided into subtypes: IVa, IVb, IVc, and IVd, based on T-cell phenotypes involved in pathological processes. The humoral factors involved in effector mechanisms, which influence target organs, are well-known. We review the current data on immunological reactions induced by administration of antituberculosis drugs and possible laboratory methods of their identification. We also provide the major results of researches into immunological indicators of the blasttransformation reaction to cell culture stimulation with isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide. The research was performed under scientific theme № 0515-2019-0016 “Personalized approaches to the treatment of respiratory TB in children and adolescents”. |
