Abstract:
The history of tuberculosis disease dates back to very ancient times. Information from these ages shed light on today's tuberculosis disease. Tuberculosis has been one of the most important diseases that have negatively affected people's lives since ancient times and caused their death. The introduction of tuberculosis by humans occurred when cattle joined their daily habitats. Cattle meat , milk was used to spread the disease rapidly. The only common thing about tuberculosis, which has been referred to by different names throughout the ages, is that its consequences intersect somewhere. Most of the disease is caused by myobacterium Tuberculosis Bacillus. Bacillus was introduced to the world in 1882 through Robert Koach. Tuberculosis causes the most outbreaks in the world after Aids. Past medical history and radiological examinations are of great importance in the diagnosis of the disease. Drug treatment of patients continues for 6 to 8 months, but progress is blocked in the first two to three weeks. The aim of this study is to give general information about the progress of the disease throughout history. Key words: Bacillus , Epidemic, Tuberculosis

Abstract:
Pleural tuberculosis is the most common extrapulmonary manifestation of tuberculosis, and is generally characterized by an effusion. The effusion is usually unilateral and residual pleural thickening or calcification is also observed in some cases. Manifestations of multiple pleural tuberculomas without associated effusion and history of tuberculosis or antituberculous therapy are rare and an isolated pleural tuberculoma is exceedingly rare. Herein, we report the first documented case of an isolated pleural tuberculoma, diagnosed by chest CT and pathological findings. Although rare, an isolated pleural tuberculoma should be added to the differential diagnosis of focal nodular pleural tumors, particularly in areas of high tuberculosis prevalence.

Abstract:
Tuberculosis (Tb) is, currently, the deadliest infectious disease and is caused by organisms of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex; the most common clinical manifestation is pulmonary involvement; however, it can also manifest as extrapulmonary affection in immunocompromised patients, especially in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) chronic infection up to 20% of the cases, despite being on adequate antiretroviral therapy. Within the extrapulmonary manifestations, affection of the central nervous system by hematogenous dissemination occurs in up to 5%, however, the finding of tuberculomas, which is a form of central nervous system involvement, is rare and an important cause in secondary hydrocephalus in these patients. We present the case of a male patient with a history of HIV infection and meningeal tuberculosis, who presented dysfunction of his ventriculoperitoneal shunt and in the imaging study multiple tuberculomas were found, a cerebrospinal fluid study was performed where multi-resistant tuberculosis (MDR) was documented, therefore despite adequate management of Tb, tuberculomas developed.

Abstract:
Brain tuberculomas account for 10-20% of space occupying brain lesions in developing countries. Most lesions are observed at time of tuberculosis diagnosis or soon after starting treatment. We herein describe a 32 year-old patient with a 14-month history of headache and progressive visual loss. Her past medical history revealed pulmonary tuberculosis treated eight years before. A brain MRI showed a T1- and T2-weighted isointense contrast-enhancing lesion in the optic chiasm. A presumptive diagnosis of optochiasmatic tuberculoma was made and isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol were started. Despite treatment, the patient evolved to blindness. The prompt recognition of this condition is extremely important since the presence of optochiasmal enhancement is associated with blindness in patients with tuberculosis.

Abstract:
Scientific development of tuberculosis problems, its diagnosis and treatment began by doctors of Kazan in the late 60s of the XIX century. Classical works on the pathological anatomy of tuberculosis belong to A.V. Petrov, who in 1868 spoke about the "specificity of the contagiousness of tuberculosis", and H. M. Lyubimov, who described the origin of giant cells in tuberculosis granuloma, he also presented the first statistical data on tuberculosis for 1875-1885 and read public lectures about it. In the second half of the last century, Kazan surgeons performed a number of operations for osteoarticular tuberculosis; It is known that koumiss is widely used in the treatment of tuberculosis patients in the steppes of the Volga region and Bashkiria.

Abstract:
Tuberculosis remains one of diseases with highest mortality among other. Indonesia had categorized in one of high burden countries since 2013. WHO estimated the annual global burden of childhood tuberculosis in 2012 was approximately530.000 cases and that up to 74.000 children died that year. The last three years tuberculosis incidence in Jember increased. In 2014, 6,5% of total tuberculosis incidence was childhood tuberculosis. Childhood tuberculosis is a major component in controlling tuberculosis. The objective of this study is to analyze determining factors of childhood tuberculosis incidence in Jember. This study is an analytical observational study using case-control design. The object of this study is children aged 0–14 years who diagnosed with tuberculosis in Jember Paru Hospital. Sampling taken by simple random sampling method. Sampel consisting 24 cases and 48 control. The independent variables is child nutritional status, contact history, long-term contact, and proximity contact. Analysis using Logistic Regression test to determine the influence between two variables. The results show that childhood tuberculosis incidence determined by contact history (p = 0,000; OR = 26,6), long-term contact (p = 0,000; OR = 69), and proximity contact (p = 0,000; OR = 27,1). The conclusion is, contact history, long-term contact, proximity contact determine childhood tuberculosis in Jember.

Abstract:
Laryngeal tuberculosis is a rare form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis that questions the natural history of this infection. We report one such case in which a pathological examination of a laryngeal biopsy revealed granulomatous inflammation with caseous necrosis. Further investigations combining immunofluorescence detection of macrophages and in situ hybridization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis indicated the presence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) in laryngeal granulomatous inflammatory lesions. This observation suggests that the natural history of laryngeal tuberculosis does not differ from that of other forms, guiding early diagnosis in patients with laryngeal lesions to ensure appropriate check-ups and treatment.

… Objective: The purpose of study is to know the admission rate and spectrum ofthe tuberculosis in children admitted in the pediatric unit of a high endemic country. Methodsand Material: This retrospective study was conducted at the Pediatric unit-I, Bahawal VictoriaHospital Bahawalpur. The records of children older than one month but below 15 years of agediagnosed as tuberculosis (TB) during the years 2007-2011 were reviewed and were includedfor the study. The data (age, sex, history of contact, BCG vaccination, tuberculin test, diagnosis)were entered on a proforma. Data were entered into SPPS version 13 (Statistical Packagefor Social Sciences) package were presented as rates and proportions. Results: There were72765 children (excluding children below the age of one month) admitted during the period offive years (2007-2011), out of which 847(1.16%) were diagnosed as tuberculosis. There was noconsistent fall in admission rate over the years due to TB cases. There were 61% male cases.The maximum cases were reported under the age of 4 years (46%). Out of total 847 TB casesBCG scar was present in only 410 (48.4%) cases. The history of contact with adult TB case wasfound in 243 (28.7%). Tuberculin skin test was positive (≥10mm) in 309 (36.5%) cases. Themost common forms of TB were tuberculous meningitis and pulmonary tuberculosis each accountingfor 37.5% cases. Other forms of tuberculosis included TB pleural effusion 12.5%, TBabdomen 7.1%, miliary TB 3.1% and TB arthritis 2.2%. Conclusions: The most common formof TB is meningitis and pulmonary each accounting for 37.5% cases and the maximum caseswere reported under the age of 4 years.

Abstract:
In small studies and cases series, a history of tuberculosis has been associated with both airflow obstruction, which is characteristic of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and restrictive patterns on spirometry. The objective of the present study was to assess the association between a history of tuberculosis and airflow obstruction and spirometric abnormalities in adults.The study was performed in adults, aged 40 years and above, who took part in the multicentre, cross-sectional, general population-based Burden of Obstructive Lung Disease study, and had provided acceptable post-bronchodilator spirometry measurements and information on a history of tuberculosis. The associations between a history of tuberculosis and airflow obstruction and spirometric restriction were assessed within each participating centre, and estimates combined using meta-analysis. These estimates were stratified by high- and low/middle-income countries, according to gross national income.A self-reported history of tuberculosis was associated with airflow obstruction (adjusted odds ratio 2.51, 95% CI 1.83–3.42) and spirometric restriction (adjusted odds ratio 2.13, 95% CI 1.42–3.19).A history of tuberculosis was associated with both airflow obstruction and spirometric restriction, and should be considered as a potentially important cause of obstructive disease and low lung function, particularly where tuberculosis is common.

Background: Tuberculosis is a major public health concern, and it is the most prevalent cause of infectious disease that infects the lymphoid tissue of the body. Clinicians have a diagnostic challenge when treating chronic enlargement of cervical lymph node since it may be a sign of a more serious condition. Objective: To assess the frequency of tuberculosis in cervical lymphadenopathy at tertiary care hospital Methodology: This descriptive study was undertaken at the Department of Pulmonology, Fatima Jinnah Institute of Chest Diseases and Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayyed Al Nahyan Medical Complex Quetta from October 2021 to October 2022. A complete physical examination was performed after taking a detailed medical history from each patient. A pre-designed proforma was used for the collection of all required data. SPSS version 23 was used to analyze all of the data. Results: In the current study, 140 patients were enrolled. There were 84 (60%) male participants while female participants were 56 (40%). The overall frequency of tuberculosis in patients with cervical lymphadenopathy was 98 (70%). Conclusion: Our study concludes that tuberculosis is the prevalent cause of cervical lymphadenopathy.

Abstract:
Background: Pediatric sellar-suprasellar tuberculosis is a rare form of tuberculosis that affects the pituitary gland and surrounding areas in the brain. It can be difficult to diagnose based on clinical and radiological signs alone, as they can be similar to other pituitary masses. A combination of biological, hormonal, and imaging examinations can aid in making an accurate diagnosis. It is important to consider tuberculosis in the differential diagnosis of sellar-suprasellar masses in the pediatric population, especially in areas with a high prevalence of tuberculosis. Case Description: A 17-year-old male with no history of illness showed up with a series of symptoms, including headaches and vision problems. A sellar-suprasellar lesion was seen on imaging, along with several minor lesions. The diagnosis of tuberculosis meningitis with cerebral and pituitary tuberculoma was made after cerebrospinal fluid analysis revealed the presence of tuberculosis. Treatment with anti-tuberculosis drugs led to clinical improvement and lesion resolution. Conclusion: Children’s sellar tuberculomas can be difficult to diagnose since they resemble other pituitary tumors. It is essential to take them into account in the differential diagnosis, especially in regions with a high incidence of tuberculosis. Long-term chemotherapy is the recommended course of treatment, and monthly follow-up visits are necessary to check hormone levels and evaluate whether a permanent hormone replacement is necessary.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) in childreen is still considered as important public health problems in various countries, including Indonesia. Risk factors related to childhood tuberculosis is crucial to identify in order to conduct prevention effort effectively. The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of environmental health in house, contact history and nutritional status toward childhood tuberculosis.Methods: This research is an analytical observational study using case-control design, with 35 samples of the case and 35 samples of the control. Several variables such as house environment, contact history and nutritional status were obtained by questionnaire and observation in house of respondents. Data analysis was conducted using Logistic Regression test to determine correlation between independent and dependent variables.Results: This research highlighted that contact history and nutritional status were correlated with childhood tuberculosis. While house environment variables such as lighting level, floor type, house occupancy density were not related to the incidence of tuberculosis in children.Conclusions: Contact history and nutritional status were the factors which determined childhood tuberculosis in Banyumas. It is important for parents to maintain good nutritional status of their children and to avoid them from contact with tuberculosis patients.

Abstract:
Tuberculosis may affect many of the endocrine glands including the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid with adrenal gland being the commonest. We describe a patient presented with recurrent spontaneous hypoglycemia, hypotension, fever, weight loss and cough. Along with this clinical picture, high ACTH in the face of low cortisol was compatible with diagnosis of Addison’s disease. Rapid ACTH stimulation test affirmed the diagnosis. Disseminated TB affecting adrenal glands was supported by CXR, USG, CT Abdomen and FNAC. Adrenal Crisis was led by add-on bacterial pneumonia. Patient made good recovery with treatment for adrenal crisis and subsequently with standard antitubercular regimen and steroid replacement therapy. Tuberculosis, although uncommon but potentially devastating cause of adrenal failure, merits consideration when fever, weight loss, gastrointestinal symptoms, hyponatremia, hyperkalemia are observed in patients with features of active tuberculosis or past history of tuberculosisJ Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2015; 33(1): 44-47

Abstract:
Este trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar la vida cotidiana de los 'niños tuberculosos', provenientes de la ciudad de Buenos Aires, que fueron internados en el Hospital Marítimo, ubicado a 400km de la metrópolis, en la localidad marítima de Mar del Plata. En 1893, surgió la idea en la Sociedad de Beneficencia de la Capital Federal de fundar un hospital y el Asilo Marítimo destinado a niños enfermos de tuberculosis ósea en general, a niños débiles y convalecientes y también al tratamiento de pacientes con tuberculosis extra-pulmonar. En este artículo, se pretende avanzar en la comprensión de dos problemáticas vinculadas entre sí: por un lado las características de la ingerencia institucionalizada de la Sociedad de Beneficencia y por el otro, la experiencia que estos niños tuberculosos vivieron en ese ámbito.

Abstract:
Background: There is a high risk of occupational exposure to tuberculosis among healthcare workers in endemic countries. Regular screening for tuberculosis among healthcare workers is not carried out in Nepal. Infection control measures are also not routinely implemented. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of active tuberculosis among staff/students at Patan Hospital.Methods: Participants were given a self-administered questionnaire and invited to undergo chest radiography. Cases were scored and reviewed based on predetermined criteria, and presumptive tuberculosis cases were invited to undergo sputum smear and culture. Participants were categorized according to the extent of patient contact and asked about history of tuberculosis medication. Results: Among 560 participants, 76.8% had direct contact with patients. Fifty-eight (10.4%) gave history of cough >2 weeks. Based on symptom history and chest radiography, 20.0% (n=112) cases were reviewed, and 12.5% (n=14) of those reviewed had sputum tested for acid-fast bacilli. One participant had culture-positive tuberculosis. Fifty participants (8.9%) reported tuberculosis in the past, among which 42.0% (n=21) occurred after employment at Patan Hospital and 42.0% before joining Patan Hospital. Security staff, radiology technicians and ward cleaning staff had the highest proportion of cases with a history of tuberculosis.History of tuberculosis medication had no relation with age, sex, education, body mass index and smoking.The incidence rate of tuberculosis at Patan Hospital was 3.6 per 1000 person-years.Conclusions: Overall incidence of tuberculosis among healthcare workers is noteworthy. However, this study suggests when symptomatic tuberculosis occurs in healthcare worker at Patan Hospital, it is diagnosed and there is not a large pool of undiagnosed tuberculosis.

Abstract:
Background: Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a rare form of septic arthritis, it remains the major cause of skeletal infection in developing area. Tuberculosis mainly involves the large weight- bearing joints particularly hips, knees and ankles. We describe one of the rarest cases of isolated tuberculosis septic hip without involvement of pulmonary and other extrapulmonary manifestations. Case report: A 15 years old Saudi girl was referred to our hospital with compline of chronic hip pain not response to regular analgesia. The patient becomes unable to bear weight in which she uses a wheelchair. There is no history of trauma. She denied any history of fevers, chills, cough, weight loss, or pulmonary symptoms. There is no history of travel, no history of contact with sick people no history of contact with people who prove to be positive with tuberculosis. She receive all vaccines since birth. Radiological investigation with Acid Fast Bacilli and TB PCR show tuberculosis septic hip. She underwent Arthrotomy and we start Anti TB medication. Conclusion: This case shows the importance of constant care and methodical approach to help ease the early diagnosis of tuberculosis septic arthritis. In all cases of septic arthritis, especially when there is no obvious cause, tuberculosis should be suspected and maintained. Investigations should include a chest radiograph, tuberculin test, microscopy for acid-fast bacilli, and culture for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. And to minimize the delay of diagnosis, a synovial biopsy is suggested to be taken at the initial arthroscopic washout, and request histology.

Abstract:
The article describes the historical stages of creating vaccines against two of the most dangerous diseases, which, after the discovery of the microbial theory, were devoted to the efforts of scientists ― rabies and tuberculosis. The lecture describes the main achievements of L. Pasteur and the stages of the creation of a rabies vaccine by him and his team, which became the crown of his scientific career and triggered the development of various areas of vaccinology. Close cooperation in this area of physicians and veterinarians and the outstanding role of Pasteur is shown. The current trends and successes of fighting this deadly disease are indicated. The stages of the development of vaccines against tuberculosis based on the discoveries of R. Koch and his followers are also presented. The successes of combating animal tuberculosis based on the creation of tuberculin for diagnosing the disease, successes in preventing tuberculosis in humans with the use of BCG vaccine after many years of work on its creation, and historical stages of eliminating animal tuberculosis in a number of countries over the 20th century are noted. Attempts to use BCG vaccine in veterinary medicine, by analogy with medical practice, and issues related to the rejection of mass vaccination of cattle are discussed.

Abstract:
Objectives: To assess the clinical, environmental, and socio-demographic characteristics leading to gender disparity in tuberculosis in Pakistan. Study Design: Prospective Comparative study. Study Setting and Duration: The Indus Hospital, Karachi Pakistan, from Jul 2020 to Dec 2020. Methodology: A sample of 200 patients with diagnosed tuberculosis (detected on an acid-fast bacillus (AFB) smear with radiographic abnormalities) irrespective of gender, sensitivity, or site of tuberculosis, were included in the study. Data of gender, personal history, substance abuse history, and dietary habits was documented. Results: Pulmonary tuberculosis was significantly more common in female patients than in males (p<0.001). The mean age of male patients was 30.16 ± 9.47 years. Male patients were significantly older than their female counterparts (p=0.003). The diabetes mellitus in male patients was significantly higher than in female patients with TB (p=0.01). Similarly, substance abuse history was more frequently positive in male patients as compared to female patients, 28 (40.60%) vs 9 (6.70%); p-value <0.001. There was no significant difference in the occurrence of drug-resistance tuberculosis between the two genders. However, pulmonary tuberculosis was significantly more common in female patients than in males (p<0.001). Conclusion: We reported some distinctive differences between male and female tuberculosis patients. Young females had more predilections toward tuberculosis as compared to men. Diabetes mellitus and substance abuse history were more common in male tuberculosis patients than in females.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To describe the prevalence of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) among tuberculosis patients in a major Brazilian city, evaluated via the Second National Survey on Antituberculosis Drug Resistance, as well as the social, demographic, and clinical characteristics of those patients. METHODS: Clinical samples were collected from tuberculosis patients seen between 2006 to 2007 at three hospitals and five primary health care clinics participating in the survey in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil. The samples were subjected to drug susceptibility testing. The species of mycobacteria was confirmed using biochemical methods. RESULTS: Of the 299 patients included, 221 (73.9%) were men and 77 (27.3%) had a history of tuberculosis. The mean age was 36 years. Of the 252 patients who underwent HIV testing, 66 (26.2%) tested positive. The prevalence of MDR-TB in the sample as a whole was 4.7% (95% CI: 2.3-7.1), whereas it was 2.2% (95% CI: 0.3-4.2) among the new cases of tuberculosis and 12.0% (95% CI: 4.5-19.5) among the patients with a history of tuberculosis treatment. The multivariate analysis showed that a history of tuberculosis and a longer time to diagnosis were both associated with MDR-TB. CONCLUSIONS: If our results are corroborated by other studies conducted in Brazil, a history of tuberculosis treatment and a longer time to diagnosis could be used as predictors of MDR-TB.

Abstract:
A tuberculoma is a clinical sign of tuberculosis that combines tubercles into a solid mass and can resemble several forms of malignant tumors on imaging. They frequently develop in people whose original tuberculosis infection is not well controlled. When they develop intracranially, tuberculomas are symptoms of CNS tuberculosis Meningitis, radiculomyelitis, bony spinal disease, and tuberculoma/tuberculous abscess are some of the symptoms of neurological tuberculosis (TB) that can also arise intracranially or in the spinal canal. comparable to other neurological TB symptoms. The majority of the time, the diagnosis of cerebral tuberculoma is presumptive and is based on radiological findings, additional supportive TB evidence from other areas, and treatment response. However, despite adequate TB treatment and concomitant corticosteroid therapy, lesions may persist for many years, as the therapeutic response of tuberculomas is unpredictable. A 19-year-old male patient admitted to the hospital for medical treatment complained of abdominal pain, constipation, nausea and vomiting, generalized weakness, fever, and chills. According to the patient’s complaints, my patient has a history of tonic-clonic seizures dating back a month, as well as a history of typhoid fever and sickle cell disease AS pattern, both of which he had been receiving treatment at a civil hospital. At the time of admission, he had undergone a number of invasive and non-invasive investigations, including a CT brain plane and an MRI brain with contrast. Brain computed tomography (CT) revealed a persistent lacunar infarct in the left corona radiata. Acute infarct in the right corona radiata, abnormal meningeal enhancement on post-contrast with meningitis, multiple ring-enhancing lesions in the bilateral cerebral hemisphere, cerebellum, corpus callosum, and intracranial tuberculous granuloma are all revealed by MRI with contrast. left corona radiata chronic infarction.

Abstract:
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease with a very high prevalence in several countries in the world. Inadequate TB treatment can cause tuberculosis bacterial resistance to OAT (Anti-Tuberculosis Medicine). The emergence ofresistance M. tuberculosis can be in the form of single drug resistance (DR-TB) or a number or all of the first-line OAT (Multidrug Resistance Tuberculosis). The purpose of this study was to determine drug resistance factors which are influenced by patient habits, medical history, drugs, and health services. This type of research is qualitative research with a case study approach method. There were 6 informants in this study who were two MDR-TB patients, two patient personal monitors, a doctor, and the person in charge of the tuberculosis section. The results showed that the patient had a smoking habit and had a previous history of tuberculosis. In terms of treatment, patients do not routinely take medicines while in health services, the puskesmas have run them well so that there are no mistakes in management. The conclusion of this study is that smoking habits, previous history of tuberculosis disease, and not routine treatment are factors that greatly influence the occurrence of resistance
