Evidence on their coexistence among the elderly in Bangladesh is limited. This study assessed prevalence of diabetes and associated\n factors with newly detected diabetes in elderly TB patients.&lt;\/sec&gt;&lt;sec&gt;&lt;title&gt;METHODS&lt;\/title&gt;This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2025 across eight tertiary care hospitals in Bangladesh. A total of 656 TB patients aged \u226560 years were included. Diabetes\n status was determined using prior diagnosis and oral glucose tolerance testing after 2 weeks of TB treatment initiation. Data were collected by face-to-face interview using semi-structured questionnaire. Informed written consent was taken and ethical issues were maintained. Data were analysed\n by IBM SPSS software. Multivariable logistic regression identified factors associated with newly detected diabetes.&lt;\/sec&gt;&lt;sec&gt;&lt;title&gt;RESULTS&lt;\/title&gt;Prevalence of diabetes was 30.3%, including 16.8% known and 16.3% newly detected. Newly detected diabetes was\n associated with age 65\u201369 years (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 3.81) and \u226570 years (AOR = 4.95), physical inactivity (AOR = 5.23), overweight\/obesity (AOR = 7.73), family history of diabetes (AOR = 9.14), and pulmonary TB (AOR = 4.49). Dietary risk lost significance in adjusted analysis.&lt;\/sec&gt;&lt;sec&gt;&lt;title&gt;CONCLUSIONS&lt;\/title&gt;Due\n to high burden of diabetes in elderly TB patients, routine diabetes screening and TB\u2013DM management, particularly targeting high-risk groups, are essential to improve outcomes.&lt;\/sec&gt;<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5588\/ijtld.26.0206","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,1]],"date-time":"2026-10-01T04:32:57Z","timestamp":1790829177000},"page":"454-459","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Diabetes prevalence and factors associated with newly detected diabetes in elderly TB patients"],"prefix":"10.5588","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"M.A.","family":"Habib","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"BADAS TB Initiative, Diabetic Association of Bangladesh (BADAS), BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S.S.","family":"Efa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BADAS TB Initiative, Diabetic Association of Bangladesh (BADAS), BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"K.","family":"Afrin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BADAS TB Initiative, Diabetic Association of Bangladesh (BADAS), BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"N.","family":"Islam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.D.","family":"Hossain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"BADAS TB Initiative, Diabetic Association of Bangladesh (BADAS), BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3554","container-title":["The International Journal of Tuberculosis and Lung Disease"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ingentaconnect.com\/content\/iuatld\/ijtld\/2026\/00000030\/00000010\/art00005","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,1]],"date-time":"2026-10-01T04:33:16Z","timestamp":1790829196000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ingentaconnect.com\/content\/10.5588\/ijtld.26.0206"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,30]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"10","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,30]]}},"alternative-id":["1027-3719(20260930)30:10L.454;1-"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5588\/ijtld.26.0206","relation":{},"ISSN":["1027-3719"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1027-3719","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,30]]}}}
