The association between secondhand smoke exposure and risk of developing active tuberculosis in individuals with latent tuberculosis infection: a systematic literature review.
Ann Ig
January 2025
Department of Environmental Health, Faculty of Public Health, University of Indonesia, Indonesia.
Background: Tuberculosis is one of the leading causes of death from infectious diseases in the world, with approximately 25% of the global population having latent tuberculosis infection. Secondhand smoke exposure has been recognised as a significant risk factor in the development of active Tuberculosis in individuals with latent tuberculosis infection.
Study Design And Methods: This study used the Systematic Literature Review method based on PRISMA guidelines.
Impact of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on in-hospital mortality: an age- and HIV status-specific retrospective cohort study in Uganda.

Department of Internal Medicine, Naguru Referral Hospital, Kampala, Uganda.
Background: Limited studies have explored the relationship between estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate(eGFR) and in-hospital mortality(IHM) in low-income sub-Saharan African countries. This study aimed to explores this association, offering insights into its impact in resource-limited settings.
Methods And Results: We retrospectively included 226 patients(age 45.
Comprehensive analysis of vaginal microbiota in Chinese women with genital tuberculosis: implications for diagnosis and treatment.

The Gynecology Department of Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Beijing Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital, Capital Medical University, No.251 of Yaojiayuan Road, Chaoyang district, Beijing, China.
Background: Tuberculosis remains an infectious disease of global concern, with potential impacts on respiratory and intestinal microbiota owing to prolonged broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy. Despite its potential to cause infertility, the vaginal microbiota of women with genital tuberculosis remains poorly understood. We comprehensively analyzed the vaginal microbiota in Chinese women with genital tuberculosis.

The microbial aminotransferase enzyme DapC is vital for lysine biosynthesis in various Gram-positive bacteria, including . Characterization of the enzyme's conformational dynamics and identifying the key residues for ligand binding are crucial for the development of effective antimicrobials. This study employs atomistic simulations to explore and categorize the dynamics of DapC in comparison to other classes of aminotransferase.

Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the deadly infectious diseases affecting millions of individuals throughout the world. The main objective of this study is to investigate the impact of media coverage on the transmission dynamics of TB with vaccine and treatment strategy using mathematical model analysis. In the qualitative analysis of the proposed model we proved the existence, uniqueness, positivity, and boundedness of the model solutions, investigated both the disease-free and endemic equilibrium points, computed the basic and effective reproduction numbers using next generation matrix approach, analyzed the stability analysis of the equilibrium points, the backward bifurcation using the Castillo-Chavez and Song theorem and we re-formulated the corresponding optimal control problem and analyzed by applying the Pontryagin's Minimum Principle.
