Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a major cause of mortality worldwide. Children and people living with HIV (PLHIV) have an increased risk of mortality, particularly in the absence of rapid diagnosis. The main challenges of diagnosing TB in these populations are due to the unspecific and paucibacillary di...

Background Childhood tuberculosis remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in part due to missed diagnosis. Diagnostic methods with enhanced sensitivity using easy-to-obtain specimens are needed. We aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the Cepheid Mycobacterium tuberculosis Host Response pr...
A Tuberculose Extrapulmonar é uma infecção crónica causada pelo Mycobacterium tuberculosis, que afecta qualquer órgão fora da árvore brônquica–pulmonar, sendo mais incidente em países de baixa renda como Moçambique devido a prevalência aumentada de imunodeficiência grave por enfermidades e ...
Tuberculosis (TB) and malnutrition are important causes of morbidity and mortality in children in the developing world.
Aims
To assess the prevalence of pulmonary TB in severely malnourished children and evaluate TB detection using the urine lipoarabinomannan antigen assay (TB-LAM).
Methods
A retrospec...

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) is frequently associated with chronic respiratory impairment despite
microbiological cure. There are only a few clinical research studies that describe the course, type and severity as
well as associated risk factors for lung impairment (LI) in TB patients....
In this comparative biomarker study, we analysed 1768 serial sputum samples from 178 patients at 4 sites in Southeast Africa. We show that tuberculosis Molecular Bacterial Load Assay (TB-MBLA) reduces time-to-TB-bacillary-load-result from days/weeks by culture to hours and detects early patient treatment...

Background: In-hospital logistic management barriers (LMB) are considered to be important risk factors for delays in TB diagnosis and treatment initiation (TB-dt), which perpetuates TB transmission and the development of TB morbidity and mortality. We assessed the contribution of hospital auxiliary worke...

Background: Up to fifty percent of microbiologically cured tuberculosis (TB) patients may be left with permanent, moderate or severe pulmonary function impairment. Very few studies have systematically examined pulmonary outcomes in patients to understand the pathophysiologic basis and long-term socio-eco...

Tuberculosis is a major health concern in several countries, and effective diagnostic algorithms for use in human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–positive patients are urgently needed.
Methods. At prescription of antiretroviral therapy, all patients in 3 Mozambican health centers were screened for tubercu...
