1. Characteristic profile of antibody responses to PPD, ESAT-6, and CFP-10 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in pulmonary tuberculosis suspected cases in Surabaya, Indonesia
Abstract Accurate and rapid diagnostic tools are important aspects of managing tuberculosis (TB) cases appropriately. However, the sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic kits based on immune response such as the tuberculin skin test (TST) and interferon gamma release assay (IGRA) are still debated. Thus, the exploration and assessment of specific biomarke

2. Usefulness of 3’- 5’ IS6110-RFLP genotyping and spoligotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolated in a tertiary hospital: a retrospective study detecting unsuspected epidemiological events
ABSTRACT A drug resistance survey involving Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolated from patients of a tertiary Hospital in the Rio de Janeiro city (RJ), Brazil, between the years 1996 and 1998 revealed a high frequency of isoniazid (HR) resistance. These isolates were revisited and genotyped. Patients came from different RJ neighborhoods and municipalities, and

3. Mycobacterium abscessus urinary tract infection: case report
Resumo Infecção do trato urinário é um sério problema de saúde pública que acomete predominantemente as mulheres. Em homens, está mais relacionada com hiperplasia prostática e cateterismo vesical. A tuberculose urogenital cursa com sintomas inespecíficos e o diagnóstico pode ser aventado na presença de leucocitúria estéril, e infecção recorre

4. Infection by Mycobacterium bovis in a dog from Brazil
Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic disease caused by bacteria belonging to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MtbC). This disease rarely affects dogs. Canine infections are usually caused by M. tuberculosis. Mycobacterium bovis infections are rare in dogs and associated with consumption of raw milk or contaminated products. Here, we report a Boxer

5. Incidence of tuberculous and non-tuberculous mycobacteria, differentiated by multiplex PCR, in clinical specimens of a large general hospital
OBJECTIVE: To determine the incidence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and non-tuberculous mycobacterial isolates in the routine setting of a large general hospital using an "in-house" multiplex polymerase chain reaction method and to establish a paradigm for the definitive identification of mycobacteria isolated using semi-automated equipment. METHODS:

6. Avaliação do potencial das formigas como vetores mecâncios de micobactérias em hospital especializado na assistência de pacientes de tuberculose no Estado de São Paulo / Evaluation of ants as potential mechanical vectors of mycobacteria in a hospital specializing in assistance to TB patients, the state of São Paulo
Introduction- Urbanization triggers numerous disorders, such as the dissemination of arthropods and, consequently, dissemination of diseases transmitted by them. Some ant species are very adaptable to the human environment. At hospitals, once they are mechanical vectors of bacteria, and the diversity of species found in these environments, they can represent

8. Clinical data and molecular analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from drug-resistant tuberculosis patients in Goiás, Brazil
Drug resistance is one of the major concerns regarding tuberculosis (TB) infection worldwide because it hampers control of the disease. Understanding the underlying mechanisms responsible for drug resistance development is of the highest importance. To investigate clinical data from drug-resistant TB patients at the Tropical Diseases Hospital, Goiás (GO), B

11. Factors related to HIV/tuberculosis coinfection in a Brazilian reference hospital
Infection with both Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis is currently the world's leading cause of death due to infectious agents. We evaluated factors related to the development of tuberculosis (TB) in HIV-infected patients who were being treated at an infectious diseases hospital in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. From January 2004

12. ESTUDO EPIDEMIOLÃGICO E PERFIL DE RESISTÃNCIA ÃS DROGAS ANTI-TUBERCULOSE EM PACIENTES CO-INFECTADOS COM TB/HIV EM HOSPITAL DE REFERÃNCIA EM FORTALEZA-CEARÃ. / EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDY AND RESISTANCE PATTERNS TO THE ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS DRUGS IN MYCOBACTERIA AND HIV CO-INFECTED PATIENTS IN A REFERENCE HOSPITAL IN FORTALEZA, CEARÃ.
The HIV infection and the tuberculosis (TB) are together the main causes of death for infectious agents in the world, being approximately 13 million people infected with both causative agents. The HIV-infected individuals show increased susceptibility for active tuberculosis, being the imunosupression caused by the virus the main risk factor for the developm
