Clinical evaluation of tuberculosis viability microscopy for assessing treatment response

Datta, Sumona; Sherman, Jonathan M.; Bravard, Marjory A.; Valencia, Teresa; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Evans, Carlton Anthony William (Oxford University Press, 2015)

BACKGROUND: It is difficult to determine whether early tuberculosis treatment is effective in reducing the infectiousness of patients' sputum, because culture takes weeks and conventional acid-fast sputum microscopy and ...
Evaluation of Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility (MODS) and the string test for rapid diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis in HIV/AIDS patients in Bolivia

Lora, Meredith H.; Reimer-McAtee, Melissa J.; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Lozano, Daniel; Saravia, Ruth; Pajuelo Travezaño, Monica Jhenny; Bern, Caryn; Castro, Rosario; Espinoza, Magaly; Vallejo, Maya; Solano, Marco; Challapa, Roxana; Torrico, Faustino (BioMed Central, 2015)

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is the most common opportunistic infection and the leading cause of death in HIV-positive people worldwide. Diagnosing TB is difficult, and is more challenging in resource-scarce settings where ...
Feasibility of the TBDx automated digital microscopy system for the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis

Nabeta, Pamela; Havumaki, Joshua; Ha, Dang Thi Minh; Cáceres Nakiche, Tatiana; Hang, Pham Thu; Collantes, Jimena; Thi Ngoc Lan, Nguyen; Gotuzzo Herencia, José Eduardo; Denkinger, Claudia M. (Public Library of Science, 2017)

BACKGROUND: Improved and affordable diagnostic or triage tests are urgently needed at the microscopy centre level. Automated digital microscopy has the potential to overcome issues related to conventional microscopy, ...
Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility Assay for Rapid Diagnosis of Lymph Node Tuberculosis and Detection of Drug Resistance

Kirwan, Daniela E.; Ugarte Gil, Cesar Augusto; Gilman, Robert Hugh; Caviedes, Luz; Rizvi, Hasan; Ticona, Eduardo; Chavez, Gonzalo; Cabrera, Jose Luis; Matos, Eduardo D.; Evans, Carlton Anthony William; Moore, David Alexander James; Friedland, Jon S.; Lymph Node TB Working Group (American Society for Microbiology, 2015)

In this study, 132 patients with lymphadenopathy were investigated. Fifty-two (39.4%) were diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB). The microscopic observation drug susceptibility (MODS) assay provided rapid (13 days), accurate ...
