Food insecurity in South Indian households with TB during Covid-19 lockdowns and the impact of nutritional interventions
Tuberculosis (TB) mortality rose during the COVID-19 pandemic, as did food insecurity worldwide. Undernourished individuals are at increased risk for incident TB disease and TB mortality. This study examines the impact of COVID lockdowns on the food security of households with TB in Southern India. In-depth interviews and focus group discussions were conducted with household contacts enrolled in a nutritional intervention study, conducted in Pudu…
Metabolite dynamics over the course of anti-tuberculosis treatment in individuals with mild and severe tuberculosis
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)
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…
