Active case finding for tuberculosis among people who inject drugs on methadone treatment in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

TL;DR: This study presents the first data on TB prevalence in a population of PWID in Tanzania, with a prevalence 23 times that of the general Tanzanian TB prevalence of 0.2%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical scaffolds with structural similarities to siderophores of nonribosomal peptide-polyketide origin as novel antimicrobials against Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Yersinia pestis.

TL;DR: This study illustrates the possibility of screening compound libraries in both iron-rich and iron-limiting conditions to identify antimicrobials that may selectively target iron scarcity-adapted bacteria and highlights the usefulness of building combinatorial libraries of compounds having scaffolds with structural similarities to siderophores to feed into antimicrobial screening programs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Management of noninfectious scleritis

TL;DR: There is a myriad of immunomodulatory agents used in the treatment of scleritis including antimetabolites, calcineurin inhibitors, biologics, and alkylating agents, which have a wide range of efficacy and documented use in the literature.
