TL;DR: Treatment outcomes were significantly better with use of linezolid, later generation fluoroquinolones, bedaquiline, clofazimine, and carbapenems for treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, and the need for trials to ascertain the optimal combination and duration of these drugs is emphasised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mixed Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Infections and False-Negative Results for Rifampin Resistance by GeneXpert MTB/RIF Are Associated with Poor Clinical Outcomes
Nicola M. Zetola,Nicola M. Zetola,Sanghyuk S. Shin,Kefentse A. Tumedi,Keletso Moeti,Ronald Ncube,Mark P. Nicol,Ronald G. Collman,Jeffrey D. Klausner,Chawangwa Modongo +9 more
TL;DR: The Xpert assay has an increased false-negative rate for detecting rifampin resistance with mixed MTBC infections and in hyperendemic settings where mixed infections are common, the Xpert results might need further confirmation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cervical cancer prevention in HIV-infected women using the "see and treat" approach in Botswana.

TL;DR: The “see and treat” cervical cancer prevention program using the VIA/EDI approach is a feasible, high-output and high-efficiency program, worthy of considering as an additional cervical cancer screening method in Botswana, especially for women with limited access to the current cytology-based screening services.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis and assessment of treatment response through analyses of volatile compound patterns in exhaled breath samples

TL;DR: The identification of VOCs' signals in breath samples using a sensor array achieved high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of TB and allowed following signal changes during TB treatment.

TL;DR: The results suggest that HIV-positive individuals who do not develop TB, despite living in areas where it is hyperendemic, provide a model of natural resistance and suggest that this pathway might be an excellent target for the development of new modalities for treating TB, especially for HIV- positive individuals.
