Printed on acid-free paper Springer International Publishing AG Switzerland is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) www.dbooks.org Preface This monograph is written for healthcare workers in any setting who are faced with the complex care for patients with tuberculosis. Prevention, diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis are fraught with challenges that are often re flective of problems in society as a whole. Signi ficant progress has been made since the millennium; Global TB incidence has been reduced, access to rapid molecular diagnosis for both TB and drug resistance has been scaled up, and two new TB drugs have been approved in Europe and the USA. However, major political and socio-economic obstacles remain in the translation of these and other advances into equitable TB healthcare access for all. Access to information on developments in TB care is one such barrier, and by summarizing the most recent advances in disease epidemiol- ogy, scienti fic achievements in treatment and diagnosis and current recommenda- tions for all forms of tuberculosis, we hope to improve the dissemination of access to the latest evidence base for the care of individuals with tuberculosis. v Contents 1 Epidemiology . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 1.1 Tuberculosis in History . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 1.2 Pathogen . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2 1.3 Epidemiology. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 1.4 Prognosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 2 Pathogenesis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 2.1 Transmission . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 2.2 The Innate Immune Response . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 2.3 The Adaptive Immune Reponse . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12 2.4 The Complex Role of TNF and Its Genetic Control . . . . . . . . . . 12 2.5 The Tuberculoma . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 13 2.6 Vitamin D and the Immune Response . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 2.6.1 Vitamin D Metabolism . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 2.6.2 Antimicrobial Effects of Vitamin D . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15 2.6.3 Vitamin D Deficiency and Susceptibility to Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15 3 Clinical Manifestations . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 17 3.1 Primary Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 17 3.2 Pulmonary Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18 3.2.1 Parenchymal Disease . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18 3.2.2 Endobronchial Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 19 3.2.3 Intra-Thoracic Lymphnode Disease . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 3.3 Extra-Pulmonary Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 3.3.1 Pleural Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 21 3.3.2 Miliary Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 21 3.3.3 Extra-Thoracic Lymphnode Disease . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 22 3.3.4 Central Nervous System Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 vii www.dbooks.org 3.3.5 Tuberculous Pericarditis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 3.3.6 Spinal Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 3.3.7 Other Forms of Extra-Pulmonary Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . 26 4 Diagnosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27 4.1 Smear Microscopy . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27 4.2 Mycobacterial Culture . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 31 4.3 Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 32 4.4 Diagnosing Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 34 4.5 Other Diagnostic Methods . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 4.6 Diagnosing Latent Tuberculosis Infection . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 36 5 Treatment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39 5.1 First-Line Antituberculous Treatment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39 5.2 HIV Associated Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 43 5.3 Treatment of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 44 5.4 The Role of Fluoroquinolones . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 47 5.5 Bedaquiline . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 48 5.6 Delamanid . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 49 6 Prevention . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51 6.1 Prophylactic Treatment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51 6.2 Prophylactic Treatment in Multi-drug Resistant Tuberculosis . . . . 52 6.3 Vaccines . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 53 6.4 Concluding Remarks. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 54 References . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 57 Index . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 65 viii Contents Chapter 1 Epidemiology Abstract This chapter will describe the pathogen which causes tuberculosis: Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It will give an overview of the historical context, the molecular and clinical epidemiology of tuberculosis in adults and children globally and describes how other epidemics, such as HIV and diabetes, in fluence disease control. It also summarizes the current efforts of the WHO to curtail the pandemic. Keywords Tuberculosis Mycobacterium tuberculosis Lineage Virulence Drug-resistance Epidemiology HIV Prognosis 1.1 Tuberculosis in History Tuberculosis (TB) has caused more deaths through the last 200 years than any other infectious disease, and has been with us since ancient times (Paulson 2013). Evidence of tuberculosis has been found in 9,000 year old mummies. There are con flicting theories of the timing of the emergence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tuberculosis) as a human pathogen with two recent theories proposing 70,000 years ago (Comas et al. 2013) or 6,000 years ago. The later study proposed that seals first transmitted the disease to humans (Bos et al. 2014). Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by the bacterium M. tuberculosis, and more rarely, other species of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex including Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium africanum. The term “tubercle” in the context of consumptive (“wasting”) disease was first coined by Fransiscus de la Bo ë (also known as Sylvius of Leyden), a Dutch anatomist in the 17th century. He found tubercles (from: tuberculum, “small lump” in Latin) in the lungs of most consumptives. Before the discovery of the pathogen in 1882 by Robert Koch, the spectrum of diseases caused by the mycobacteria were known by many names including: consumption, phtisis (from Greek “phtinein” to waste away), scrofula (swelling of lymphnodes, especially in the neck), Pott ’s disease (tuberculous spondylitis, named after a British orthopedic surgeon Percivall Pott, in © The Author(s) 2015 D. Heemskerk et al., Tuberculosis in Adults and Children, SpringerBriefs in Public Health, DOI 10.1007/978-3-319-19132-4_1 1 www.dbooks.org the 18th century, but found in Egyptian mummies and art as early as 1000 BC), yaksma (from Sanskrit: gradual destruction) and shaky oncay (Incan), balasa (Hindu: swelling). The European epidemic in the 17th century was known as “the white plague ” (Fig. 1.1 ). 1.2 Pathogen TB is caused by bacteria of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, mostly M.tuberculosis, but rarely also M.canetti, M.microti, M.africanum, and M.bovis (de Jong et al. 2010). Mycobacteria are non-motile, non spore-forming, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria of 2 –4 µm in length and possess a unique lipid-rich cell wall which gives the ‘acid-fast’ property by which they are known (acid-fast bacilli, or Download 1.87 Mb.
