Dental Clinics of North America, 1996
Dental health care providers must play an active role in preventing the transmission of tuberculosis. The information presented here should allow them to appropriately identify and refer patients who may be infectious, identify oral lesions which may be due to tuberculosis, and develop and implement an infection control plan to prevent transmission in ...

Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be an important public health problem. Currently, 2,100 million people--one third of the world population--are infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with an estimated annual rate of 9.4 million new cases, and 440,000 cases of multidrug-resistant (MDR) TB in 2008; furthermore, cases of extensively-resistant (XDR) TB have

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1992
In the United States, the incidence of tuberculosis (TB) is higher in elderly persons than in any other segment of the population, except in HIV-infected persons. The diagnosis of TB, however, is all too often not considered in geriatric patients. Although elderly nursing home residents are at a greater risk for TB than the aging population in the ...

The Lancet, 2019
Tuberculosis remains the leading cause of death from an infectious disease among adults worldwide, with more than 10 million people becoming newly sick from tuberculosis each year. Advances in diagnosis, including the use of rapid molecular testing and whole-genome sequencing in both sputum and non-sputum samples, could change this situation.

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2005
Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, transmitted primarily by inhalation of aerosolized droplets containing the organisms. There is an infection of the respiratory tract and the tubercle bacilli spread via lymphatic system and bloodstream to many different organs.

Tuberculosis (TB) is currently the world's leading cause of infectious mortality. Imaging plays an important role in the management of this disease. The complex immune response of the human body to Mycobacterium tuberculosis results in a wide array of clinical manifestations, making clinical and radiological diagnosis challenging.

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 2004
Tuberculosis is a term that encompasses various diseases caused by bacteria of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, including M tuberculosis, M bovis, M africanum, and other mycobacterial species. Whereas M tuberculosis infection is largely spread from human to human, M bovis infection has been identified as a zoonotic disease with most cases of ...

The Lancet
Tuberculosis is a leading cause of death globally. Given the airborne transmission of tuberculosis, anybody can be infected, but people in high-incidence settings are more exposed. Risk of progression to disease is higher in the first years after infection, and in people with undernourishment, immunosuppression, or who smoke, drink alcohol, or have ...

Among communicable diseases, tuberculosis is the second leading cause of death worldwide, killing nearly 2 million people each year. Most cases are in less-developed countries; over the past decade, tuberculosis incidence has increased in Africa, mainly as a result of the burden of HIV infection, and in the former Soviet Union, owing to socioeconomic ...
