Abstract:

Since antiquity, people have been plagued by tuberculosis (TB), and its effects are likely older than recorded history. For many centuries, TB was the most significant human infection due to its devastating mortality and morbidity rates and global prevalence. In developed nations, there is less evidence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections as a result of improved socioeconomic status. In developing nations like India, it is still regarded as a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Cutaneous TB occurs worldwide and it comprises only a small proportion of all cases of TB, but conside

Abstract:

AbstractDrug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis pose a major threat to global tuberculosis control. Despite the availability of curative antituberculosis therapy for nearly half a century, inappropriate and inadequate treatment of tuberculosis, as well as unchecked transmission of M. tuberculosis, has resulted in alarming levels of drug-resistant tuberculosis. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there were 600,000 cases of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB)/rifampin-resistant (RR) tuberculosis in 2016, defined as strains that are resistant to at least isoniaz

lsoniazid (INH) is one of the main first-line drugs used for the treatment of active tuberculosis (TB) and latent TB infection because it has bactericidal capabilities and a good level of safety.

The treatment mix for INH monoresistant TB patients is a combination of rifampicin (R), isoniazid (H), pyrazinamide (Z), ethambutol (E), and levofloxacin (Lfx) or R-H-Z-E-Lfx given for 6 months.

In 1993, the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared tuberculosis (TB) a global emergency and in 1996, South Africa declared TB as a priority disease. The most effective means of controlling TB is through rapid diagnosis by direct sputum microscopy for acid fast bacilli (AFB), or culture for Mycobacteium tuberculosis (MTB) and prompt initiation of the correct therapy by means of the Directly Observed Treatment, Short course (DOTS) strategy. ln 1997, it was estimated that 10 million of the 30 million people infected with the human immuno-deficiency virus (HM worldwide were co-infected with TB.

Abstract:

Abstract Accurate and rapid diagnosis is crucial for starting effective treatment for tuberculosis (TB) and mitigating the transmission. Globally, nearly one-third of all TB cases remain undetected each year and consequently these are not reported. On top of that, the emergence of drug-resistant TB poses an added challenge. In the past 15 years, several advances have been made for improved diagnosis, including liquid culture and drug susceptibility, line probe assay for drug resistance detection, and cartridge-based nucleic acid amplification tests for rapid diagnosis of TB and drug resistance

Abstract:

Tuberculosis (TB) remains endemic in many parts of the developing world and is increasingly seen in the developed world due to migration. A total of 1.3 million people die annually from the disease. Spinal TB is the most common musculoskeletal manifestation, affecting about 1 to 2% of all cases of TB. The coexistence of HIV, which is endemic in some regions, adds to the burden and the complexity of management. This review discusses the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, impact of HIV and both the medical and surgical options in the management of spinal TB. Cite this article: Bone

Abstract:

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is still a problem in developing countries and even the world. TB is one of the top 10 causes of death and the first cause of death from an infectious agent worldwide. The government plans to eliminate TB by 2030, which is carried out with the National Strategy for TB Control. Family doctors play an important role in which the role of family doctors is not only to cure but also to promote health and prevention of TB disease. Purpose: The application of evidence-based medical doctor family services to patients by identifying risk factors, clinical problems, and man

Abstract:

Paediatric tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant public health challenge, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). While TB is largely preventable and treatable, children often face barriers to timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment due to gaps in health policy and systems. This literature review examines health policy perspectives on Paediatric tuberculosis management, focusing on global and national policies, the integration of TB services into broader health systems, and the challenges of implementing effective Paediatric TB control programs.

Abstract:

Early and rapid diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in clinical specimen is important for the treatment of patients and control of disease transmission to the community. The disease is largely preventable and curable, but without rapid, and correct diagnostic tools for tuberculosis (TB) infection and drug resistance, it is unlikely that we can meet the national TB elimination program in Ethiopia by 2035. Moreover, drug resistant TB is becoming more common and is a great challenge for the successful control and eradication of TB. The need for rapid, accurate and affordable methods for TB ma

Abstract:

Controlling tuberculosis (TB) among immigrants from high-incidence countries presents a public health concern as well as a medical challenge. In this article, we investigate a TB outbreak in a community of people of Jewish descent who emigrated from Ethiopia to Israel (Israeli Ethiopians) that started in June 2022. The index case was a 20-year-old female who had recently immigrated to Israel with her family. Her pre-immigration tuberculin skin test was positive. After excluding active TB, treatment with daily isoniazid for latent TB (LTB) was started shortly after her arrival. A year later, sh

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Serum responses against Mycobacterium tuberculosis HSP16 were determined for children with tuberculosis (TB) and for healthy purified protein derivative (PPD)-positive and PPD-negative children. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM responses were higher for TB patients than for other groups. After chemotherapy, IgM and IgG responses decreased for TB patients and PPD-positive subjects. Monitoring of anti-M. tuberculosis HSP16 responses could assist in the management of pediatric TB.

Abstract:

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) are present in most regions of the world and represent a serious threat to the control of tuberculosis. They usually result from errors somewhere along the chain of management of the disease that favoured the selection of resistant mutants, progressively replacing drug-sensitive strains and transmitted to further patients. The currently recommended strategies for the control of this serious situation is the rapid identification of drug-resistant strains, careful drug management of patients with second-lin

There is a 19 times increased risk of developing active TB in people living with HIV than in HIV-negative people with Sub-Saharan Africa being the hardest hit region. According to the WHO, 1.3 million people died from TB, and an additional 300,000 TB-related deaths among people living with HIV. Although some progress has been made in reducing TB-related deaths among people living with HIV due to the evolution of diagnostics, treatment and antiretroviral HIV treatment, multi drug resistant TB is becoming a source of worry.

Abstract:

Managing pediatric tuberculosis (TB) remains a public health problem requiring urgent and long-lasting solutions as TB is one of the top ten causes of ill health and death in children as well as adolescents universally. Minors are particularly susceptible to this severe illness that can be fatal post-infection or even serve as reservoirs for future disease outbreaks. However, pediatric TB is the least prioritized in most health programs and optimal infection/disease control has been quite neglected for this specialized patient category, as most scientific and clinical research efforts focus on
