BMC Public Health (2019) 19:1432 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-019-7814-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Factors associated with tuberculosis disease among children who are household contacts of tuberculosis cases in an urban setting in Malaysia Noor Atika Azit1, Aniza Ismail1*, Norfazilah Ahmad1, Rohani Ismail2 and Shuhaily Ishak2 Abstract Background: With the rise in prevalence of childhood tuberculosis (TB) globally, contact tracing should be a powerful strategy for early diagnosis and management, especially in children who are household contacts of active TB cases. Here, we aimed to determine the prevalence and factors associated with TB disease in children who are household contacts of TB cases. Methods: We used a cross-sectional study with data from the Malaysian TB Information System (TBIS) recorded from 1 January 2014 to 31 December 2017. All children aged 0–14 years who were registered in the TBIS with at least one household contact of TB cases were included in the study. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to calculate the adjusted odds ratio (adj. OR) and for adjusting the confounding factors. Results: A total of 2793 children were included in the study. The prevalence of active TB was 1.5% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.31, 1.77%). Children aged < 5 years [adj. OR 9.48 (95% CI: 3.41, 26.36) p < 0.001] with positive tuberculin skin test [adj. OR 395.73 (95% CI: 134.17, 1167.13), p < 0.001] and investigation period of > 6 weeks [adj. OR 7.48 (95% CI: 2.88, 19.43), p < 0.001] had significantly higher odds for TB disease. Conclusions: The prevalence of TB disease in children who were household contacts of TB cases is relatively low. However, contact tracing programmes should not only focus on children aged < 5 years and with positive tuberculin skin test results, but also be empowered to reduce the investigation period.

  • SOALAN LAZIM PENYAKIT NOVEL CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) 15 November 2020
    SOALAN LAZIM PENYAKIT NOVEL CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) 15 November 2020 Soalan 1: Apakah coronavirus? Coronavirus adalah satu keluarga besar virus yang menyebabkan jangkitan saluran pernafasan seperti Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) dan Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-related Coronavirus (MERS-CoV). Coronavirus terbaharu dan menjadi pandemik di seluruh dunia kini dikenali sebagai Novel Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). COVID-19 telah mula dikesan di negara China dengan kes pertama disahkan pada 7 Januari 2020 di Wuhan, Hubei, China. Dalam tempoh tiga (3) minggu seterusnya, kes-kes disahkan di Thailand, Nepal, Amerika Syarikat, Korea Selatan, Singapura, Perancis, Vietnam, Malaysia, Australia, Canada, Cambodia, Sri Lanka dan Jerman. Kes pertama di Malaysia disahkan pada 25 Januari 2020. Sehingga kini, penyakit COVID- 19 masih lagi menular di Malaysia. Sejak 20 September 2020, Malaysia sudah memasuki permulaan gelombang ketiga COVID-19 susulan peningkatan mendadak kes jangkitan virus COVID-19. Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia dan pihak berkuasa terus menjalankan program dan aktiviti kawalan dan pencegahan bagi membendung wabak COVID-19 di Malaysia. Soalan 2: Bagaimanakah novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) merebak? Cara penularan novel coronavirus COVID-19 daripada individu kepada individu yang lain adalah melalui titisan dari hidung atau mulut yang tersebar apabila seseorang yang dijangkiti COVID-19 batuk atau bersin. Titisan ini melekat pada objek dan permukaan di sekelilingnya. Orang lain yang menyentuh objek atau permukaan ini mempunyai risiko mendapat jangkitan COVID-19 apabila beliau menyentuh mata, hidung atau 1 mulutnya selepas menyentuh permukaan/objek yang tercemar. Seseorang itu juga boleh dijangkiti COVID-19 jika mereka berada dekat dengan pesakit COVID-19 yang batuk, bersin atau bercakap dalam jarak yang dekat.

The opening of the centre will be subject to the decision of the Ministry of Health (MOH). The MOH has rejected the proposal for a green work bubble to allow factory workers who have tested negative and are still undergoing their 14-day quarantine to return to work early. Authorities are currently reviewing data to evaluate the need to shorten mandatory quarantine periods for international travellers into Malaysia. Selangor state government has established three initiatives to curb the spread of COVID-19 in the state. It includes: o Isolating Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) cargo workers. o Identifying five locations to open low-risk COVID-19 quarantine and treatment centres. o Increasing coordination with district health officers to expedite foreign workers’ screenings. The MOH has spent an estimated total of RM 1.17 billion on the nation’s fight against COVID-19.
