Background: Drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) is an ongoing health threat, and the greatest challenge to adequate control of TB in many countries lies in the lack of proper laboratory drug-susceptibility test. The aim of this study was to evaluate the activity-based costs (ABC) of Kit SIRE ...
a sexual health screen is a comprehensive assessment that tests for sexually transmitted infections (stis) and overall reproductive health, making it increasingly relevant to medical tourism as individuals seek quality care and privacy abroad. considering getting sexual health screen abroad? at treatment...
The indirect tests, such as interferon-gamma release assays, provide a new diagnostic method for M. tuberculosis infection, but do not discriminate between infection and active disease. The most common direct method for diagnosing TB worldwide is sputum smear microscopy (developed more than 100 ...
Of 18 sites that participated in an implementation study of the Xpert® MTB/RIF assay in India, we selected five microscopy centres and two reference laboratories.To obtain unit costs of diagnostic tests for tuberculosis (TB) and drug-resistant TB.Laboratories were purposely selected to capture ...
The ATLAS Google Project was established as part of an ongoing evaluation of the use of commercial clouds by the ATLAS Collaboration, in anticipation of th
Tuberculosis is a major cause of mortality among HIV-infected inpatients, and the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends an algorithm to improve diagnosis. The urine lateral flow lipoarabinomannan (LAM) and sputum Xpert MTB/RIF tests are promising tools, but the optimal diagnostic algorithm is...
Log data restore is billed by the amount of data restored, and by the time the restore is kept active. The minimal values billed for any data restore are 2 TB and 12 hours. Data restored of more than 2 TB and/or more than 12 hours in duration is billed on a pro-rated basis....
However, readers should be cautioned that several of the assumptions used in their model are inconsistent with more recently published data.2 These differences may invalidate some of their conclusions that new blood tests for tuberculosis are both "more effective and less costly" than tuberculin ...

Note, that vendors (including VictoriaMetrics) are often biased when doing such tests. E.g. they try highlighting the best parts of their product, while highlighting the worst parts of competing products. So we encourage users and all independent third parties to conduct their benchmarks for ...
