Abstract: Objective: To analyze the drug resistance and risk factors of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Songjiang District of Shanghai. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 1513 pulmonary tuberculosis patients diagnosed as Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the Songjiang District Central Hospital from 2012 to 2018. Data of the patients were collected from “Tuberculosis Information Management System”, and “First registration of pulmonary tuberculosis patients” and “Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture and drug sensitivity registration”of Songjiang District Central Hospital. Mycobacteriu tuberculosis resistance to first-line anti-TB drugs and risk factors for mutidrug-resistance tuberculosis were analyzed. Results: The overall drug resistance rate of 1513 pulmonary tuberculosis patients was 19.50% (295/1513), and the multidrug-resistance rate was 4.30% (65/1513). The drug resistance rates to the four first-line anti-tuberculosis drugswere streptomycin (Sm, 14.34%, 217/1513), isoniazid (INH, 10.38%,157/1513), rifampicin (RFP, 5.29%, 80/1513) and ethambutol (EMB, 3.83%,58/1513). The overall drug resistance rate, multidrug-resistance rates and poly-restance rate of newly treated patients were significant lower than those of relapse patients (18.46% (261/1414) vs. 34.34% (34/99), χ 2=14.874; 3.54% (50/1414) vs. 15.15% (15/99),χ2=30.361; 3.54% (50/1414) vs. 13.13% (13/99),χ2=21.347, respectively; all P=0.000). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that occupation as workers (OR=2.078, 95%CI=1.196-3.609) and retreatment (OR=5.195, 95%CI=2.782-9.700) were risk factors for MDR-TB. Conclusions: The rates of drug resistance and multidrug-resistance in Songjiang District of Shanghai was low. However, drug resistance screening should be actively carried out for key groups such as retreated patients and worker, and attention should be paid to the monitoring of drug resistance in newly diagnosed patients, to control the occurrence of MDR-TB.
