[Analysis of resistance to clofazimine in tuberculosis patients].

To analyze the drug resistance of tuberculosis patients to clofazimine. Retrospective analysis was conducted on the case data of 1 770 tuberculosis patients in Department of tuberculosis, Beijing Chest Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2015 to June 2018, including 1 225 males and 545 females, aged 8-92 (43.2±15.2) years old. Drug sensitivity tests using proportion method (hereinafter referred to as drug susceptibility test) for TB strains anti-tb drug resistance test. Using χ test or Fisher's exact test. 1 770 cases of tuberculosis patients, 1 713 cases of patients with clofazimine sensitive, of 57 patients with drug resistance, and resistant rate was 3.2% (57/1 770), including patients with recurrent clofazimine, significantly higher than the initial percentages of patients [5.8% (38/656), 1.7% (19/1 114), χ²= 22.129, = 0.000, <0.01]; The drug resistance rates of poly-resistant, multi-drug resistant and extensively resistant patients to clofazimine were 1.0% (17/1 770), 1.2% (21/1 770) and 1.1% (19/1 770), respectively. Has a history of hospitalization of clofazimine resistance of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant patients resistant rate 2.4% (14/594), 2.7% (16/594), respectively, higher than 0.6% (7/1 176) with no history of hospitalized patients, 0.3% (3/1 176), the differences were statistically significant (χ²=10.447,22.099,=0.001,<0.001). Clofazimine has a low resistance rate, which can improve the treatment success rate of patients with drug-resistant tuberculosis and has important value.
