TB Flashcards
Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI)
+ Tuberculin skin test (TST) or interferon-γ release assay (IGRA)
The QFT-GIT assay is an ELISA-based, that uses peptides from three TB antigens (ESAT-6, CFP-10, and TB7.7) in an in-tube format. An individual is considered positive for M. tuberculosis infection if the IFN-gamma response to TB antigens is above the test cut-off (after subtracting the background IFN-gamma response in the negative control).
TB general facts
One-fourth of the world’s population has latent TB.
[14]
Countries with the highest incidence of TB: India, Indonesia, China, the Philippines, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Pakistan, and South Africa
The incidence of multidrug-resistant TB is steadily rising

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (sensu stricto)
Mycobacterium africanum
Mycobacterium bovis
Mycobacterium leprae
Mycobacterium lepromatosis
Nicht-tuberkulöse Mykobakterien (NTM, Atypische Mykobakterien)
Type: facultative intracellular rod-shaped bacteria
Gram stain: does not stain well
The presence of high lipid content (mycolic acid) in the mycobacterial cell wall prevents entry of the Gram stain
acid fast bacilli AFB or acid and alcohol fast bacililli AAFB-
due to the ability of the lipid rich cell to retain the red carbol fuchsin stain in the presence of acid and alcohol during the Ziehl Neelsen staining process.
primary + secondary resistance
Primary drug resistance – Infected with MTB strain which is already drug resistant 50 %
Secondary (acquired) drug resistance – Drug resistance develops during treatment
MDR TB
Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR TB) is caused by an organism that is resistant to at least isoniazid and rifampin, the two most potent TB drugs.
Extensively drug resistant TB (XDR TB)
Extensively drug resistant TB (XDR TB) is a rare type of MDR TB that is resistant to isoniazid and rifampin, plus any fluoroquinolone and at least one of three injectable second-line drugs (i.e., amikacin, kanamycin, or capreomycin
