6 Tuberculosis is the most important cause of illness for people living with HIV

7 Effect of HIV on risk of active TB Increased progression from primary or latent TB infection to TB disease HIV negative: 10% lifetime risk HIV positive: 10% annual risk

10 HIV is the most important cause of progression to active TB and increasing TB incidence

16 TB control is essential for reducing TB incidence and increasing survival of people living with HIV

17 Survival of people with HIV and TB Manosuthi JAIDS 2006

18 HIV testing of patients with TB Very low HIV testing rates in Western Pacific Region: 0.6% in 2005 Traditional approach has been VCCT Provider Initiated Testing and Counseling: 81% Rwanda; 64% Kenya Cambodia (BMC); 47% sites without VCCT vs 76% sites with VCCT Nong IUTLD KL 2007; WPR TB/HIV framework 2008

19 Options for HIV testing WPR TB/HIV framework 2008

20 Access to HIV testing and ART is essential for the survival of people with HIV and active TB

21 WHO algorithm for diagnosis of TB in ambulatory HIV patients WHO guidelines for SNTB/EPTB 2006

23 Diagnosis of TB in people with HIV Classic symptoms, sputum and if possible Chest X-ray Critical but less accurate, especially if CD4 is low Jones ARRD 1993; Samb IJTLD 1997; Siddiqi Lancet ID 2003; Elliott IJTLD 1993; Karstaedt IJTLD 1998; Johnson IJTLD 1998

24 Additional TB diagnostic methods Assay Performance Fluorescence microscopy Bleach/centrifugation Liquid culture Serology Nucleic acid amplification tests Adenosine deaminase (ADA) Phage-based assays Line probe assays More sensitive than conventional Can improve sensitivity More sensitive and rapid Poor High specificity, modest sensitivity Accurate for pleural effusion Poor with clinical specimens Accurate and rapid for RIF resistance Perkins JID 2007; Pai PLoS Med 2008

25 TB screening is HIV care: rapid assessment experienced clinician improved algorithms quality controlled diagnostics

30 Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome Restoration of immune response to pathogens Paradoxical variant = deterioration in pre-existing clinical illness Unmasking variant = onset of clinical illness after start/change of ART Commonly fever, respiratory, lymph node Usually in first 3 months of ART start/change More common if start ART earlier Difficult to differentiate from other causes Corticosteriods can be used for serious cases Narita AJRCCM 1998; Breen Thorax 2004;; Lawn Lancet Infect Dis 2005; French AIDS 2004

31 Starting ART within 2-3 weeks of start of anti-tb therapy especially if CD4 < 100 cells/µl is likely to result in more morbidity, but less mortality
