ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study
is to investigate the disease distribution of tuberculosis in national regional
project. 960 patients were selected from national tuberculosis control program
who took treatments in the Fourth People’s Hospital Clinical Laboratory in
Nanning Guangxi from January to November in 2013. Then we observed all those
patients’ disease distribution and analyzed all the lab test indexes. We
analyzed the results according to gender and age distribution. From the age
distribution, we found that the incidence was lower at the age of 40 or
younger, while higher incidence occurred to patients over 40 years old. There
is statistical significance comparing these two age groups. P is less than
0.001. Disease distribution: 731 patients were infected with TB; 21 patients
were co-infected with tuberculosis (TB) and HIV. 196 patients were co-infected
with TB and fungal. 12 patients were co-infected with TB, HIV and fungal. From
the laboratory testing, we know there were 87 patients whose liver function
indexes were abnormal. There were 192 patients whose blood RT indexes were
abnormal. The liver function and blood RT indexes of patients with co-infection
were higher than those infected purely. There is statistical significance in
comparison P
