Abstract:

Background: India has one of the highest tuberculosis (TB) burdens globally. However, few studies have focused on TB in young children, a vulnerable population, where lack of early diagnosis results in poor outcomes.Methods: The present study was undertaken to assess the sensitivity and specificity of tuberculin test (Mantoux) and BCG test in diagnosis of childhood tuberculosis and to compare above tests as a diagnostic tool and to assess the impact of factors affecting the test. Mantoux test was done with 1 TU contained in 0.1 ml of PPD R23 with tween 80 solution. BCG test was done using a he

Abstract:

After Mantoux testing with purified protein derivative (PPD) equivalent to 5 tuberculin units (TU), a 28 yr old man developed extensive erythema, induration and proximal lymphangitis. This is the only such case observed after Mantoux testing in approximately 500,000 subjects during 10 yrs in the Greek Army.

Abstract:

Localized erythema at the site of a previous bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) inoculation is a relatively specific and early manifestation of Kawasaki disease (KD),1 and redness and crusting are characteristic features at the site of BCG immunization during the acute phase of the illness.2 With these findings in mind, we evaluated the tuberculin skin test reactivity of children with KD, as determined by a commercially available (Sclavo, Siena, Italy) and intradermally injected (5 TU) purified protein derivative (PPD).

<strong>Introduction: </strong>Tuberculosis (TB) is a major public health problem in India and hence early diagnosis and treatment is important to prevent further complications and spread. Diagnosing in children is challenging because the easily available diagnostic tools like radiological screen which is subjective, mantoux test is a marker of exposure, not disease and due to the paucibacillary nature of mycobacterium in children. Hence there is a need of a relatively rapid and confirmative diagnostic tool.  Implementation of cartridge‐based nucleic acid amplification tests (CBNAAT)

The epidemic situation with tuberculosis in the Russian Federation is improving, but remains tense. From 2008 to 2018, the tuberculosis incidence rate of the population of the Russian Federation decreased by 1.9 times. The factors affecting the course of the epidemic process of tuberculosis infection are considered: the reliability of indicators, the standard of living of the population, the timely identification of patients with tuberculosis, HIV infection in patients with tuberculosis and the resistance of mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT) to medicinal anti-TB drugs. The incidence of tubercul

Abstract:

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a major global health problem. Childhood tuberculosis (TB) is common in our community but it is relatively neglected, due to greater challenges in diagnosis. Clinical manifestations of childhood TB differ from adults. The diagnosis in most cases is based on clinical evidence but chest X-ray, Mantoux test, history of Kochs contact, malnutrition and sputum/gastric sample microscopy are important supporting investigations. WHO recommended use of newer diagnostic tests like Gene Xpert in pediatric cases where TB is mostly paucibacillary and identification of TB bac

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious illness that mainly affects the lungs. The Mantoux tuberculin skin test (TST) is one method of determining whether a person is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Reliable administration and reading of the TST requires standardization of procedures, training, supervision, and practice. Aims and Objectives: The objective was to determine the sensitivity and specificity of Mantoux test in pediatric patients for the diagnosis of TB. It also assists to study various presentations of TB in Mantoux test-positive patients. Materials and Methods: From A

The study included 154 patients and tested in the examination and treatment FGBU “NIIF St. Petersburg”, Russia's Health Ministry in 2011, in connection with suspected genital tuberculosis. All patients fulfilled clinical and laboratory examination with bacteriological, immunological and histological methods. Comparative analysis revealed that the sensitivity Diaskintest ® exceeds the sensitivity of the Mantoux test with 2 TE (66.7% vs. 55%, respectively), but specificity was lower Diaskintest (75% and 80%, respectively). Consequently, it is advisable to use Diaskintest and Mantoux test with 2

Abstract:

Episcleritis is a common inflammatory eye illness that is typically self-limiting and is marked by mild discomfort and redness. However, systemic disorders, such as infections like tuberculosis (TB), may be linked to recurring or treatment-resistant episcleritis. Localized, elevated lesions on the bulbar conjunctiva are a symptom of the uncommon form of tubercular nodular episcleritis, which may be a sign of systemic TB. The patient was a 40-year-old woman who had been experiencing slight discomfort, redness in her right eye, and a raised lesion near her limbus for 15 days. These symptoms were
