  9. Background | The Beijing Strain of TB

  10. Research | Rationale Current literature on the Beijing strain indicates variation among clinical features in different populations, sometimes finding no difference between strains1 and other times finding significant differences in incidence of fever, pulmonary cavitation, night sweats, and duration of cough2 1. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3374453/ 2. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1552074/

  11. Research | Rationale Make informed recommendations regarding vulnerable populations The purpose of this study was to identify cases of TB in the state of Florida caused by the Beijing strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and determine key etiological properties in its clinical presentation at diagnosis

  12. Research | Question Objective To determine whether there is a delay in diagnosis of TB among cases of the Beijing strain as evidenced by indication of more advanced disease at diagnosis Exposure of Interest Beijing spoligotype Primary Outcome of Interest X-ray cavitation Hypothesis Positive X-ray cavitation at diagnosis of tuberculosis will be positively correlated with the Beijing spoligotype

  13. Data | Source & Methods Every case was de-identified and completely confidential TB Cases: Health Management System (HMS) & the Tuberculosis Information Management System (TIMS) Cases in Florida from 2008 to 2011 n=1540 Sputum and Culture Data: Florida Bureau of Laboratories Fully HIPAA compliant disease registries: Florida Department of Health Statistical Software: SAS 9.3

  14. Data | Source & Methods Data Analysis Frequency Statistics Univariate Analysis 95% Confidence Intervals and p-values (α=0.05) Multivariate Logistic Regression Odds Ratios, beta coefficients

  15. Data | Source & Methods Study approved by UF IRB and by the FDOH We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study of culture-confirmed M. TB cases gathered by physician visits Our sample included de-identified demographic, epidemiological, and laboratory from 2008 to 2011 Strain information was determined by spoligotyping, which is both sensitive and specific for the Beijing family

  16. Dataset | Variables 1587 total observations (n = 1540)

  44. Conclusion The purpose of this study was to identify cases of TB in the state of Florida caused by the Beijing strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and determine key etiological propertiesin its clinical presentation at diagnosis

  45. Conclusion The purpose of this study was to identify cases of TB in the state of Florida caused by the Beijing strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and determine key etiological propertiesin its clinical presentation at diagnosis In addition to naming the Asian race a significant risk factor, we identified the Black race as a significant protective factor against having the Beijing TB strain and discovered high rates of geographical clustering of Beijing cases

  46. Conclusion The purpose of this study was to identify cases of TB in the state of Florida caused by the Beijing strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and determine key etiological propertiesin its clinical presentation at diagnosis While we failed to reject our null hypothesis, we can now contribute to the limited but sorely needed data on clinical presentation of Beijing spoligotype TB cases
