TL;DR: Bedaquiline-containing regimens achieved high conversion and success rates under different nonexperimental conditions, and is safe and effective in treating MDR- and XDR-TB patients.

TL;DR: The nondifferent outcomes and bacteriological conversion rate observed in cases who were more severe than controls might imply that meropenem/clavulanate could be active in treating MDR- and XDR-TB cases.

TL;DR: It is suggested that meropenem/clavulanate is more effective than imipenem/ clavULanate in treating MDR/XDR-TB patients and safe and more effective in treating non-drug-resistant tuberculosis patients.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that, in this population, the contact-tracing strategy is more effective than new entrant screening, and is not likely that the contacts have caught their disease from the index case, but rather that in high-incidence areas such as the authors' such tracing selects extended families or communities at particularly high risk.
