- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
- 结核病研究 结核病研究
背景情况:
- 高的随访损失率 (LTFU) 显著阻碍了耐药结核病 (DR-TB) 患者的成功治疗结果.
- 巴基斯坦缺乏质量研究,详细介绍LTFU患者的感知,挑战和停止治疗DR-TB的原因.
研究的目的:
- 质量地探索LTFU患者对DR-TB治疗的看法.
- 确定LTFU患者所面临的具体问题,以及他们在巴基斯坦不遵守DR-TB治疗的根本原因.
主要方法:
- 一项定性研究涉及半结构化,深入的面对面采访,对39名被诊断患有DR-TB的LTFU患者进行了面对面采访.
- 采访以乌尔都语进行,分两个阶段进行:2020年12月至2021年2月 (广泛耐药结核病) 和2021年7月至2021年9月 (多药耐药结核病).
主要成果:
- 归纳性主题分析揭示了四个关键主题,这些主题有助于LTFU:
- 与患者相关的因素:缺乏意识,治疗疲劳,对疗效的信念较低,以及对不可治愈性的看法.
- 与药物相关的因素:注射剂,药物负担,长时间和不良事件.
- 社会经济因素:性别歧视,贫困,缺乏家庭支持,社会孤立和失业.
- 与服务提供商相关的因素:遥远的中心,不合格的员工,不充分的咨询和医疗保健专业人员的不良态度.
结论:
- 患者的看法,社会经济状况,药物问题和服务提供商因素是完成DR-TB治疗的重大障碍.

Medical management of tuberculosis (TB) patients involves a comprehensive approach that includes diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring. The specific strategies can vary depending on the type of tuberculosis (latent or active), the patient's overall health status, and other considerations.
Latent tuberculosis infection occurs when TB bacteria are present in a person's body, but are not causing illness or symptoms. It is not contagious, and preventive treatment is crucial to avoid the...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis I

Tuberculosis, often called TB, is a contagious illness primarily caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It mainly affects the lung parenchyma but can also impact other body parts.
Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.

Treatment Resistant Cancers
3.3K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Tuberculosis, more commonly referred to as TB, is an infectious disease stemming from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While it primarily impacts the lungs, TB can also affect other body areas. Given its severity and global impact, timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for controlling its spread and improving patient outcomes.
Several diagnostic approaches are used to detect TB. The conventional method is the Tuberculin Skin Test (TST), also known as the Mantoux test. However, this method has...

Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infection primarily affecting the lung parenchyma but which can also affect other body parts. TB can be classified based on disease development, presentation, and the affected anatomical site.
The first classification is based on the development of the disease, and it includes the following categories:

Tuberculosis, or TB, is a bacterial infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While its primary impact is on the lungs, leading to pulmonary tuberculosis, it can also affect various other organs, a condition referred to as extrapulmonary tuberculosis.
Here is a detailed explanation of its pathophysiology:
Transmission: The process begins when a person inhales droplet nuclei containing M. tuberculosis. These are typically released into the air when an individual with pulmonary or...
