Confronting the scientific obstacles to global control of tuberculosis
Open accessAbstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a major threat to global health, recently exacerbated by the emergence of highly drug-resistant forms of the disease-causing pathogen and synergy with HIV/AIDS.In 2006, the Stop TB Partnership published "The global plan to stop TB: 2006-2015," which set out a vision of halving the prevalence of and mortality caused by the disease by 2015, followed by eliminating the disease as a public health problem by 2050.This vision depends on the development of improved diagnostics, simpler treatment, and more effective vaccination.Recently, active translational research pipelines directed toward each of these goals have been established, but improved understanding of the fundamental biology of this complex disease will prove to be the key to radical advances in TB control.Nonstandard abbreviations used: AFB, acid-fast bacilli; BCG, bacillus Calmette-Guérin; DOTS, directly observed therapy, short course; DST, drug susceptibility testing; MDR-TB, multidrug-resistant TB; TB, tuberculosis; XDR-TB, extensively drug-resistant TB.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
