Contribution of Reinfection to Annual Rate of Tuberculosis Infection (ARI) and Incidence of Tuberculosis Disease

C. Robert Horsburgh et al.

Summary: Background modeling studies have found that most tuberculosis infections result from reinfection. The annual rate of infection (ARI) may not accurately reflect the risk of infection among previously infected individuals. Using a simulation model, we found that ARI underestimates the true risk of infection, especially in populations with heterogeneous risk. These findings suggest that the true force of tuberculosis infection in a community may be greater than previously appreciated.

Are we underestimating the annual risk of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis in high-burden settings?

David W. Dowdy et al.

Summary: The annual risk of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection and the resulting incidence of tuberculosis are often underestimated, as current estimates primarily focus on young children and might not account for all cases of infection in adults. Therefore, targeting recently infected individuals could lead to significant reductions in tuberculosis incidence.

Resistance to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection among highly TB exposed South African gold miners

Violet Chihota et al.

Summary: Despite high exposure to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, only a small proportion of South African gold miners resist TB infection and they do not have distinguishing epidemiological characteristics.

Are we underestimating the annual risk of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis in high-burden settings?

David W. Dowdy et al.

Summary: Research suggests that current estimates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection risk in most high-burden countries may underestimate the true risk of infection. Young children are expected to have a lower risk of infection, and individuals may have varying responses to exposure, leading to potentially higher infection risk. Targeting the minority of individuals who have been recently infected may lead to significant reductions in tuberculosis incidence.

Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex DNA in CD34-positive peripheral blood mononuclear cells of asymptomatic tuberculosis contacts: an observational study

Mulugeta Belay et al.

Summary: The study found a high detection rate of M tuberculosis complex DNA in CD34-positive PBMCs, which was associated with both HIV-infected and uninfected individuals, with less difference in those with QuantiFERON results. Isoniazid preventive therapy reduced the prevalence of M tuberculosis complex DNA in PBMCs of HIV-infected individuals.

Biomarker-guided tuberculosis preventive therapy (CORTIS): a randomised controlled trial

Thomas J. Scriba et al.

Summary: The study conducted in South Africa involved 20,207 volunteers, testing the performance of the RISK11 transcriptomic signature and 3HP preventive therapy. Results showed a higher prevalence and incidence of tuberculosis in RISK11-positive participants who received 3HP preventive therapy compared to RISK11-negative participants.

Resistance to Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection Among Household Contacts: A Multinational Study

Davit Baliashvili et al.

Summary: A multinational study found that at least 10% of household contacts of patients with pulmonary multidrug- or rifampin-resistant tuberculosis are resistant to M. tuberculosis infection, regardless of exposure level. The prevalence of resistance did not significantly differ by sex, age, HIV coinfection, or comorbid conditions. Further research into the genetic or immunologic mechanisms underlying resistance could lead to new therapeutic and vaccine strategies.
