title: [Carbohydrate metabolism impairment and specific features of the course of tuberculosis in adolescents with diabetes mellitus].
abstract: The paper deals with the detection of carbohydrate metabolic disturbances in adolescents with tuberculosis and analyzes their impact on the course of a specific process. Borderline carbohydrate metabolic disorders were identified in 10.8% of the 130 patients examined. A trend for tuberculosis to run less favourably was found in patients with carbohydrate metabolic disturbances than in those without these disorders; however, there was no significant difference between the groups. Fourteen tuberculosis adolescents with diabetes mellitus were followed up. Their concurrence showed a severe course. In 33.2% of patients, the course of tuberculosis was poor, by progressing to fibro-cavernous tuberculosis.
