INVESTIGATION OF FACTORS INFLUENCING TUBERCULOSIS DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN ACCORDING TO TUBERCULOSIS CONTACT HISTORY
Keywords:
Key terms: Tuberculosis, intrathoracic tuberculosis, TB exposure, pediatrics, early detectionAbstract
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant global health concern,
especially among children. Understanding the risk factors associated with TB
development in pediatric populations is crucial for effective prevention and
management.
Objective: This study aims to compare risk factors between children who have
direct contact with TB patients and those who do not, with the goal of identifying key
determinants of TB susceptibility.
Methods: We conducted a analysis of pediatric TB cases from medical records.
Participants were divided into two groups: Group A (children with direct TB exposure)
and Group B (children without direct TB exposure). Demographic, clinical, and
environmental variables were assessed.
Results: Preliminary findings indicate that children with direct contact with TB
patients are at higher risk of developing TB. Key risk factors include: Household
Exposure - Children living in close proximity to active TB cases face increased
transmission risk; Malnutrition - Poor nutritional status weakens the immune system,
making children more susceptible to TB infection; Crowded Living Conditions
- Overcrowded households facilitate TB transmission.
Conclusion: Our study underscores the importance of targeted interventions for
high-risk pediatric populations. Early case detection, nutritional support, and infection
control measures are essential in reducing TB incidence among children.
