The incidence of genital tuberculosis is not the same in different parts of ·world. It de­pends on the incidence of tuberculosis of other organs specially lungs in the area. In India the incidence is very high, but in U.S.A. and Germany it is very low. In our country the patients refer mostly from the north and north­west.  5'7<- to 1W'/<- of sterile patients have genital tuberculosis. Sterili...

background pe5 is a member of the pe protein family whose precise function is yet to be understood. there are about 100 members of the pe family proteins in mycobacterium tuberculosis. these glycine- and alanine-rich proteins consist of proline-glutamate motifs at their n-termini and may be implicated in pathogenesis of the bacilli. objectives we aimed to clone and over-express the rv0285 codin...

Abstract A dataset of (E)-N’-benzylideneisonicotinohydrazide derivatives as a potent anti-mycobacterium tuberculosis has been investigated utilizing Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) techniques. Genetic Function Algorithm (GFA) and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis (MLRA) were used to select the descriptors and to generate the correlation QSAR models that relate the Mi...

Tuberculosis (TB) is a deadly disease caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria which affects lungs. has become public health problem in Indonesia and around world. prevention one of goals Sustainable Health Development (SDGs). In year 2020, 17.3% TB patients were 45-54 years old, 16.8% 25-34 16.7% 15-24 old. The treatment coverage (TC) cases 2020 was 41.7%, lower than three ago. medica...

Background and Aims: Unlike many global efforts to eradicate tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium, it remains as a life-threatening infection with a worldwide incidence of 1.5 million cases each year. However, due to the lack of information about Mycobacterium tuberculosis characterization, more studies are required to evaluate strain diversity and epidemiology of tuberculosis to improve the th...

BACKGROUND Genital tuberculosis (GTB) is an important cause of female infertility, especially in developing countries. The positive results of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in endometrial GTB in the absence of tubal damage raise the possibility of the detection of sub-clinical or latent disease, with doubtful benefits of treatment. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the mycobacterium tuberculosis infect...
