efforts. Europe, become the epicenter for TB epidemics starting in the 16th and 17th centuries. In the

were females and 443 (44.4%) were male. Conclusion: This study showed that rifampicin resistant
tuberculosis is high in Nigeria especially among the economically productive age group in the
country. Fourteen (73.7%) of the 19 were male and 5 (26.3%) were female. Fourteen (73.7%) of the
19 fell between 21-40 years of age. Seven (36.8%) of the 19 resistant to rifampicin were HIV
positive. The HIV infection and AIDS stand out as the most significant among all the risk-factors
for TB and has succeeded in consistently and significantly altering the incidence rate of TB over the
last three decades. You can download the paper by clicking the button above. Results showed that 35
(12.8%) of the 273 tested TM positive to TB. 136 (49.6%) of the 273 were positive to HIV. 17
(48.6%) of the 35 who tested positive to TB also tested positive to HIV. 9 (25.7%) of the 35 TB
positive patients were rifampicin resistant. 6 (66.7%) out of the 9 rifampicin resistant were positive
to HIV. Study Design: A cross sectional retrospective study Place and Duration of Study: St Mary's
Catholic Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria, between October 2016 and March 2018 Methodology: In this
study, 1044 patients diagnosed in the GeneXpert laboratory was conducted using the laboratory
register. Globally, the prevalence of MDR-TB is on the increase in both newly diagnosed and 1
previously treated TB cases. The famous presentations and postulates of Koch changed dramatically
the history of tuberculosis in 1882. A deterministic model was formulated to study the transmission
dynamics of TB and MDR-TB, using live data generated through epidemiological study. The burden
is further exacerbated in developing countries like Nigeria, by poor diagnosis, management and
treatment, as well as rapid emergence of drug-resistant TB. Results: Of the 1044 tested, 177 (17%)
tested positive for TB while 19 (10.7%) of the 177 were resistant to rifampicin. Disease usually
occurs when the bacteria multiply, overcome immune defenses, and become numerous enough to
cause obvious clinical symptoms. Patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) are the most important
source of infection. Methods: A prospective hospital- based study involving 1300 presumptive
multidrug- resistant tuberculosis patients was conducted in Enugu between April 2017 and 31st
March, 2019. Sociodemographic data were collected from hospital registration books. See Full PDF
