MDR, Pre-XDR and XDR Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis in Poland in 2000–2009

Advances in Respiratory Medicine, 2011
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is a curable disease and its spread can be prevented by using appropriate diagnostics methods and effective treatment. The obstacle to the rapid eradication of the disease from a population may be strainsresistant to essential and most effective antibiotics.

Rapid Diagnosis of XDR and Pre-XDR TB

Archivos de bronconeumologia, 2022
INTRODUCTION: No previous systematic reviews have comprehensively investigated the features of Xpert MTB/XDR and other rapid tests to diagnose pre-XDR/XDR-TB. The aim of this systematic review is to assess existing rapid diagnostics for pre-XDR/XDR-TB from a point-of-care perspective and describe their technical characteristics (i.e., sensitivity ...
