Other macrophages will also begin to extravasate from peripheral blood, but they…

The definitive diagnosis is through an acid fast stain of the bacteria in a lab, obtained through multiple sputum cultures and a chest x-ray showing abnormalities of the lungs. There is antibiotic treatment for tuberculosis but the bacteria is very drug resistant due to the stiff structure of the cell wall and as a result, the antibiotic course is long and sometimes dangerous due to serious side effects. The most common antibiotics used to treat TB are isoniazid and rifampicin for a minimum of…

This is due to the immune system suppressing the bacteria from growing. In the event that the immune system fails to suppress the bacteria, the bacteria becomes active and multiplies, leading to TB disease. When a person has TB disease, they can spread the bacteria through the air. TB’s main methods of transmission are coughing,…

Maurya et al. examined the prevalence of MDR-TB due to the use of first line drug changing pattern trends within the next 4 years. Current report from Northern India show 3% (new) cases and 13% (acquired) cases. The surveillance program of drug resistant TB and the use of drug resistant testing may help with establishing standard protocol for chemotherapy and allowing for routine assessment of the program.

In the case of TB disease, the agent is the Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and sometimes Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis), M. africanum. M. canetii and M. caprae. The host factors are low immunity, poor nutrition, and co-infection or concurrent disease (e.g. HIV). The environmental factors are crowded conditions, poor ventilation, urbanization, and bad sanitation. In the US, TB patients must be excluded from educational facilities and children’s services (including child care, family day care,…
