Treatment FailureVaccinereatment failed TB patients have very limited chances of survival. Open label trial of daily oral pill of V-5 Immunitor (V5) was conducted in 48 treatment-failed TB patients on palliative support consisting of isoniazid (H) and rifampicin (R). The subjects had the ...
Conclusions Linezolid resistance occurred in a third of patients with drug-resistant TB and treatment failure. Resistance occurred late and was predicted by a limited number of mutations in rrl and rplC. Screening for genotypic resistance should be considered for patients with a positive culture ...
TB is the most common infection for the estimated 5.5 million South Africans living with HIV/AIDS (in a national population of some 48 million). The co-infection rate of HIV is estimated at 73 per cent in all TB cases. The estimated incidence of TB in South Africa is 692 per 100,000 ...
Furthermore, it is unknown why some individuals in TB endemic countries (where Mtb exposure is common) never become Mtb infected, why most latently infected individuals never progress to active TB disease, and what may account for treatment failure, relapse, and re-infection. One emerging factor...
Records of the 1537 TB patients showed that 181 (11.8%) were cured, 1129(73.5%) completed treatment, 171 (11.1%) defaulted, 52 (3.4%) died and 4 (0.3%) had treatment failure. The overall mean treatment success rate of the TB patients was 85.2%. The treatment success rate of the TB...

Some factors such as diabetes mellitus and smoking have been associated more frequently with relapse, treatment failure, and death [12, 19–21], while drug use and alcohol use were associated with loss to follow-up and death [15, 19]. Delay in diagnosis and treatment are also fundamental ...
Understanding TB treatment outcomes is crucial, with categories like cure rate, completion, failure, death during treatment, and loss of follow-up assessing effectiveness. In Ethiopia, regional disparities show varying treatment success rates16,17,18. Challenges persist in Ethiopia, notably delays in ...
Objective: This study of TB Cat I cases retreated with Cat II treatment at a DOTS centre, was under taken to gather evidence as to whether TB patients are mostly relapse cases or failure cases and if there is any difference in their final outcome after retreatment. Methods: The secondary da...
