Do successful tuberculosis vaccines need to be immunoregulatory rather than merely Th1-boosting? [PDF]
Tuberculosis vaccine candidates are entering clinical studies in areas where BCG fails. This is a high-risk strategy. We suggest that geographical variation in the efficacy of BCG is related to the presence in developing countries of a cross-reactive ...

ABSTRACT Background Asymptomatic tuberculosis (TB) is emerging as a disease state warranting attention because it is presumed infectious, yet affected individuals lack symptoms. The World Health Organization recommends screening for cough, fever, weight loss and night sweats and recently defined asymptomatic TB.

High rates of tuberculosis in end-stage renal failure: the impact of international migration. [PDF]
We studied a cohort of patients requiring renal dialysis who had migrated to the United Kingdom from tuberculosis (TB)-endemic countries and found extremely high rates of TB (1,187 cases per 100,000 per year), partly associated with end-stage diabetic ...

ABSTRACT Isoniazid (INH) is a key component of tuberculosis treatment regimens but is also associated with hepatotoxicity. This toxicity is mediated in part by its metabolites, but some degrade rapidly in plasma. A rapid freeze/thaw process with a methanol protein precipitation extraction was developed to slow the rapid degradation of acetylisoniazid ...
