Diagnostic accuracy study of the multiplex Truenat MTB Ultima/Covid-19 assay for simultaneous detection of Tuberculosis and Sars-CoV2 (Covid-19)
The COVID-19 pandemic led to significantly disrupted tuberculosis case detection and management. Additionally, overlapping symptoms, radiological findings and risk factors make differentiating tuberculosis and COVID-19 disease difficult. We conducted a prospective multicentre diagnostic accuracy study to determine sensitivity, specificity and operational characteristics of the Truenat MTB Ultima/COVID-19 assay, using a combined sputum plus nasoph…
Performance evaluation of the Molbio diagnostics Truenat MTB Ultima/Covid-19 multiplex assay for TB and Covid-19 case detection among people with symptoms suggestive of tuberculosis—a study protocol f…
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health problem globally, as reflected in persistently high morbidity and mortality rates. Current control efforts have been further complicated by the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic. Rapid molecular diagnostics remain crucial to identifying the millions of people with undiagnosed TB. Objectives: The study aimed to determine the diagnostic accuracy of Truenat MTB Ultima/COVID-19 for the …
The role of emergent champions in policy implementation for decentralised drug-resistant tuberculosis care in South Africa
OBJECTIVE: Champions are recognised as important to driving organisational change in healthcare quality improvement initiatives in high-income settings. In low-income and middle-income countries with a high disease burden and constrained human resources, their role is highly relevant yet understudied. Within a broader study on policy implementation for decentralised drug-resistant tuberculosis care in South Africa, we characterised the role, stra…
We had to manage what we had on hand, in whatever way we could’
In 2011, the South African National TB Programme launched a policy of decentralized management of drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) in order to expand the capacity of facilities to treat patients with DR-TB, minimize delays to access care and improve patient outcomes. This policy directive was implemented to varying degrees within a rapidly evolving diagnostic and treatment landscape for DR-TB, placing new demands on already-stressed health sys…
A very humiliating illness”
Beyond being a "very humiliating illness", RR-TB robs people of their physical, social, economic, psychological, and emotional well-being far beyond the period when treatment is being administered. Efforts to tackle these issues are as important as new drugs and diagnostics in the fight against TB
Building the Next Generation of Implementation Science Careers to Advance Health Equity
Rapid advancements in translational research have produced innovative clinical discoveries and evidence-based interventions that are ready for uptake in real-world settings, creating vast opportunities and challenges for implementation science. However, there is an inadequate research workforce to study effective strategies and delivery of implementation to advance the field. Novel career development initiatives will build scholars for the next g…

Translating biomedical science into clinical practice
The identification of new biomarkers that help understand the epidemiological basis of patterns of malignancy at a population level is reshaping conceptions of health, disease and normality. These developments create new challenges for clinicians and the ways in which they work with scientists and engage with patients. Bioclinical collectives, an assemblage of laboratory and clinical evidence and practice, comprise different expert groups of scie…

Young Women With Type 1 Diabetes' Management of Turning Points and Transitions
The authors used grounded theory to explore and develop a substantive theory to explain how 20 young women with type 1 diabetes managed their lives when facing turning points and undergoing transitions. The women experienced a basic social problem: being in the grip of blood glucose levels (BGLs), which consisted of three categories: (a) the impact of being susceptible to fluctuating BGLs, (b) the responses of other people to the individual woman…
