In a recent cohort of TB patients in Eastern Europe, we show that XDR TB as currently defined is associated with exceptionally poor treatment outcomes, considerably worse than for the former definition (31% vs. 54% treatment success).PMID:38526186 | DOI:10.3201/eid3004.231732 (Source: Emerging Infectious Diseases)

Tuberculosis in people of Ukrainian origin in the European Union and the European Economic Area, 2019 to 2022
Euro Surveill. 2024 Mar;29(12). doi: 10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2024.29.12.2400094.ABSTRACTApproximately five million Ukrainians were displaced to the EU/EEA following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. While tuberculosis (TB) notification rates per 100,000 Ukrainians in the EU/EEA remained stable, the number of notified TB cases in Ukrainians increased almost fourfold (mean 2019-2021: 201; 2022: 780). In 2022, 71% cases were notified in three countries, and almost 20% of drug-resistant TB cases were of Ukrainian origin. Targeted healthcare services for Ukrainians are vital for early diagnosis and treatment, and preventing transmi...
