Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading infectious cause of death globally. Despite WHO recommendations for TB preventive therapy (TPT), challenges persist, including incompletion of treatment and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). There is limited data on the 3-month isoniazid and rifapentine (3HP) pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenomics and their relation with ADRs.

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection, is a chronic inflammatory disease. Although typically associated with inflammation of the lungs and other peripheral tissues, increasing evidence has uncovered neurological consequences attributable to Mtb infection. These include deficits in memory and cognition, increased risk for neurodegenerative disease, and progressive neuropathology.

Article Synopsis
  • Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is aggressive, with aneuploid circulating tumor cells (DTCs) and endothelial cells (DTECs) believed to drive metastasis, but their clinical significance is still unclear.
  • A study used advanced techniques to analyze DTCs and DTECs from 30 SCLC patients, including genetic sequencing to identify mutations in specific cell subtypes.
  • Findings showed higher levels of DTCs and DTECs compared to circulating tumor cells, with certain detections linked to poorer survival outcomes and lower effectiveness of treatment, emphasizing the importance of these cells in patient prognosis.
