Tuberculosis and HIV: Implications in the developing world

Macarthur Charles et al. Curr HIV/AIDS Rep. 2006 Sep.

Abstract

Developing countries bear the brunt of the epidemics of AIDS and tuberculosis (TB), and the management of patients with both diseases poses a particular challenge in these settings. In this article, we review implications for the twin epidemics of HIV and TB for the developing world with respect to diagnosis, prevention, treatment and integration of national TB and HIV programs.
