Risk factors for recurrent tuberculosis after successful treatment in a high burden setting: a cohort study.

BMC infectious diseases - 23 Oct 2020

Cudahy Patrick George Tobias, Wilson Douglas, Cohen Ted

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: People successfully completing treatment for tuberculosis remain at elevated risk for recurrent disease, either from relapse or reinfection. Identifying risk factors for recurrent tuberculosis may help target post-tuberculosis screening and care. METHODS: We enrolled 500 patients with smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis in South Africa and collected baseline data on demographics, clinical...
