Medicine for Tuberculosis


As per available reports about 10Relevant journals, 13Conferences11Workshops are presently dedicated exclusively to breathing disorder and about 286 articles are being published on medicine for tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis (tb) is an infection, primarily in the lungs (a pneumonia), caused by bacteria called mycobacterium tuberculosis. It was first isolated in 1882 by a German physician named Robert Koch who received the noble prize for this discovery. The most common symptoms and signs of tb are fatigue, fever, weight loss, coughing, hemoptysis, and night sweats. A new technology, light emitting-diode fluorescence microscopy (led-fm), a type of smear microscopy, is more sensitive than the standard ziehl-neelsen AFB stain to identify the bacteria. TB usually affects the lungs, but it can also affect the brain, kidneys, spine or other organ systems. TB can cause serious health problems, including death, if left untreated.

OMICS International Organizes 1000+ Global Events Every Year across USA, Europe & Asia with support from 1000 more scientific societies and Publishes 700+ Open access journals which contains over 100000 eminent personalities, reputed scientists as editorial board and organizing committee members. The conference series website will provide you list and details about the conference organize worldwide. 

Scope and Importance:

The scope of treatment of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in the United States and Canada is unknown. Identifying the types of clinics that administer such treatment and patients who receive it could guide resource utilization and improve treatment initiation and completion. In 2013 the World Health Organisation (WHO) estimated that 3.5% of new cases and 20.5% of previously treated cases of TB were of MDR (Multi Drug Resistant) TB. There were an estimated 300,000 new cases of MDR TB among those cases of pulmonary TB that were reported to them.2 MDR TB is just one of the different types of drug resistant TB, and is TB that is resistant to the TB drugs isoniazid and rifampicin. It was also estimated that there were 480,000 new cases of MDR TB among the world’s 12 million prevalent cases of active TB. The number of prevalent cases of MDR-TB is important as it directly influences the active transmission of strains of MDR TB.3 (For more about TB incidence and prevalence see the TB statistics page.) There were also approximately 210,000 deaths from MDR-TB and more than half of these patients were in India, China and the Russian Federation.

Tuberculosis (tb) is an infection, primarily in the lungs (a pneumonia), caused by bacteria called mycobacterium tuberculosis. It was first isolated in 1882 by a German physician named Robert Koch who received the noble prize for this discovery. The most common symptoms and signs of tb are fatigue, fever, weight loss, coughing, hemoptysis, and night sweats. A new technology, light emitting-diode fluorescence microscopy (led-fm), a type of smear microscopy, is more sensitive than the standard ziehl-neelsen AFB stain to identify the bacteria. TB usually affects the lungs, but it can also affect the brain, kidneys, spine or other organ systems. TB can cause serious health problems, including death, if left untreated. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), fewer people in the U.S. have TB disease than in past years. However, despite a decrease in reported TB cases, the disease remains a serious threat, especially for people living with HIV/AIDS. That’s because TB infection and HIV infection can work together to make you very sick. Worldwide, TB is the leading cause of death among people living with HIV.TB is an issue for people living with HIV/AIDS in the U.S. because: It is estimated that about 4.2% of Americans (13 million individuals) are infected with TB bacteria, As of 2011, CDC estimated 6% of all TB cases and 10% of TB cases among people aged 25–44 occurred among people who were HIV-positive, Because of the serious health risks for co-infection with TB and HIV, the CDC recommends that all HIV-positive people should be tested for TB. Those who test positive for TB should begin treatment immediately. TB is primarily an airborne disease. When a person with active TB disease coughs, sneezes, speaks, or sings, TB germs spread through the air. These germs can float in the air for several hours. If you breathe in the air containing these TB germs, you can become infected. There are two types of TB infection latent (LTBI) and active. Symptoms of TB can vary from person to person. People who have LTBI will have no symptoms. People with active TB infection can experience persistent coughing (including coughing up blood), night sweats, fever, weight loss, chills, and fatigue. Treatment for TB can be as challenging as treatment for HIV. There are some risks involved, mainly because the treatments can cause liver damage in some people. If you have both HIV and TB, it is important to be closely monitored by a healthcare provider during your treatment to make sure you are not hurt by side effects from taking TB and HIV medicines together. Also, if you begin antibiotic therapy for TB, it’s important to take ALL your medication, on time and in the way your healthcare provider recommends. Like HIV, TB can become resistant to medications quickly if you miss doses of your meds. Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR TB) is TB that is resistant to at least two of the best anti-TB, Drug isoniazid and rifampin. MDR TB is extremely difficult to treat and can be fatal, extensively Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis (XDR TB) is resistant to the most powerful first-line and second-line drugs. Patients with XDR TB have fewer, less-effective treatment options and often have worse treatment outcomes. People living with HIV infection or with AIDS are at greater risk of dying of MDR TB and XDR TB. 

Market Analysis:

The United Kingdom respiratory care market, Based on anatomical features, the respiratory system is segmented into upper respiratory tract and lower respiratory tract. The upper respiratory tract comprises pharynx, larynx, and nasal passages, while the lower respiratory tract includes trachea, lungs, and bronchi. Respiratory disease is a medical condition that affects the structure and organs associated with respiration or breathing. Equipment used to detect pulmonary abnormalities hold immense potential due to increasing prevalence of various respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, and pneumonia. Moreover, growing geriatric population and technological advancements would drive the global respiratory disease testing market. However, low adoption rate of digital radiography and portable spirometers are projected to hold back the growth of respiratory disease testing market from 2014 to 2022. The global respiratory disease testing market was valued at USD 2,326.5 million in 2013 and is estimated to reach USD 3,143.3 million in 2022, expanding at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2014 to 2022. For instance, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published in 2012 that around 18.7 million adults in the U.K. were suffering from asthma. The American Lung Association states that COPD is the third leading cause of death in the U.K.
