We report outcomes for a cohort of patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis who received high-dose isoniazid in Haiti. Patients who received high-dose isoniazid had a faster time to culture conversion and higher odds of successful outcome, despite high-level isoniazid resistance. This suggests high-dose isoniazid may have effectiveness even with phenotypic resistance.
我们报告了在海地接受高剂量异烟肼治疗的耐多药结核病患者队列的结果。尽管存在高水平异烟肼耐药性,但接受高剂量异烟肼治疗的患者培养转换时间更快,成功结局的可能性更高。这表明高剂量异烟肼即使存在表型耐药性也可能具有疗效。
