Predictive Ability of Sonographic Characteristics Alone to Diagnose Tuberculous Pleural Effusions in a Resource‐Limited Setting: A Cross‐Sectional Pilot Study in Zambia

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE), the second most common form of extra‐pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), remains difficult to diagnose due to low‐yield, invasive and often unavailable diagnostics in resource‐limited settings. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of sonographic characteristics alone to predict TB ...

Altered Pharmacokinetics and Delayed Sputum Conversion in Tuberculosis Patients Co‐Infected With HIV

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background HIV co‐infection affects host responses and pharmacokinetics (PK) of tuberculosis (TB) treatment. This study assessed the PK of first‐line anti‐TB drugs and clinical outcomes in patients with and without HIV co‐infection. Methods In this prospective observational study, 61 adults with sputum‐positive pulmonary TB, either confirmed ...
