  • Cost-effectiveness of in-kind nutritional support for impoverished persons with tuberculosis to reduce mortality and disengagement from care in India

    Open AccessJulia Gallini, U Singh et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2026

    BACKGROUND: Undernutrition is a leading risk factor for tuberculosis (TB) mortality and poor treatment outcomes. We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of providing in-kind nutritional support to impoverished persons with TB (PWTB) in India. METHODS: We developed a Markov model comparing standard care with a household-level nutritional food-basket intervention. Model parameters were informed from systematic reviews and a recent cluster-randomised st…

The objective of this narrative review was to conduct a review of existing literature related to the types of stigma experienced by PWTB and their household members, with a focus on the effects of stigma, possible interventions, and gender differences. A literature search was conducted on PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science using key sear…

  • Metabolite dynamics over the course of anti-tuberculosis treatment in individuals with mild and severe tuberculosis

    Open AccessCatherine H Kagemann, Senbagavalli Prakash Babu et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) manipulates host metabolism to gain nutrients and increase virulence. Despite known alterations in metabolism in individuals with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) during anti-tuberculosis (TB) treatment, the effect of disease severity on metabolite dynamics in individuals with PTB remains understudied. We examined metabolite dynamics over the course of anti-TB treatment in individuals diagnosed with mild (N = 8; smear…

  • Tuberculosis- learning about experience with nutritional supplementation (TB Lens)

    Open AccessMadeline Carwile, Komal Jain et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2025

    Undernutrition is a major driver of the tuberculosis (TB) epidemic, with one in five TB cases worldwide attributable to undernutrition. Nutritional interventions may reduce TB incidence and mortality for those at increased risk of developing TB. The TB LION (Tuberculosis - Learning the Impact Of Nutrition) study provides nutritional supplementation to household contacts (HHC) of TB index cases ( n = 60) to examine the impact of supplementation on…
