Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Epidemiología  Enfermedad Clasificación: 614.4 Medicina (Epidemiología) Resumen: Esta ambiciosa referencia examina los esfuerzos mundiales para controlar la propagación de la tuberculosis, con especial énfasis en el mundo en desarrollo. Los estudios de casos de China, Pakistán, Nigeria, Indonesia y otros países de primera línea demuestran una gran cantidad de información sobre factores clínicos, culturales, socioeconómicos y otros factores relevantes. Esta compilación proporciona un recurso valioso para crear estrategias exitosas de intervención y prevención. Las instantáneas del estado de la ciencia señalan dónde se encuentran hoy las iniciativas a corto y largo plazo, desde programas de detección temprana y vacunación hasta nuevas tecnologías genéticas y terapias farmacológicas. Este grupo diverso de perspectivas y enfoques ofrece caminos innovadores hacia el control y probabilidades realistas de contener la amenaza, especialmente frente a las coepidemias actuales y las nuevas cepas resistentes a los medicamentos. Entre los temas del Manual: Diagnóstico de la tuberculosis: proyectos actuales, necesidades insatisfechas y nuevos avances Concurrencia de la tuberculosis y otras enfermedades importantes La respuesta, investigación y control del brote de tuberculosis La promesa de nuevas vacunas contra la tuberculosis Huella digital del ADN de Mycobacterium tuberculosis: una rica fuente de conocimiento fundamental y aplicable diariamente Vigilancia global de la tuberculosis El Manual para el control global de la tuberculosis es una lectura urgente para los líderes y el personal de organizaciones no gubernamentales, agencias gubernamentales, instituciones académicas, centros de investigación, hospitales y, potencialmente, empresas con intereses en el control de la tuberculosis. Además, el enfoque del libro en la tuberculosis en los países en desarrollo atraerá a una audiencia más amplia de profesionales, particularmente aquellos que trabajan en los campos más amplios de la salud pública global, la epidemiología, el desarrollo internacional y la socioeconomía de las enfermedades infecciosas.

Circumstances where a mandatory test is requested: militaries, health care workers, hospital works, students, employment requirement, immigrants, and etc -- A case study: Beijing-strategic plan and implementation of prophylactic usage of TB treatment -- A case study: US-recommended medical practices in prophylactic usage of TB treatment for household close contact groups -- A case study: Pakistan: society awareness and media coverage for TB prevention and treatment) -- New TB Vaccine research and development -- Part IV: Surveillance.-Global TB surveillance system: -- Methodology of estimation of TB incidence and mortality -- TB Socioeconomics: poverty, migration, society changes -- Molecular epidemiology -- A Case study: Korea: Implementation of nationwide TB epidemiology survey -- A Case study : China Web-based TB reporting system -- A Case study: Japan： (same content as in China for direct comparisons). Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This ambitious reference surveys worldwide efforts at controlling the spread of tuberculosis, with special emphasis on the developing world. Case studies from China, Pakistan, Nigeria, Indonesia, and other frontline countries demonstrate a wealth of information on clinical, cultural, socioeconomic, and other relevant factors. This compilation provides a valuable resource for creating successful intervention and prevention strategies. State-of-the-science snapshots pinpoint where short- and long-term initiatives stand today, from early detection and vaccination programs to new genetic technologies and drug therapies. This diverse group of perspectives and approaches offers innovative paths toward control and realistic odds for containing the threat, especially in the face of current co-epidemics and new drug-resistant strains. Among the topics in the Handbook: Diagnosis of tuberculosis: current pipeline, unmet needs, and new developments Concurrence of tuberculosis and other major diseases The tuberculosis outbreak response, investigation, and control The promise of new TB vaccines DNA fingerprinting of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a rich source of fundamental and daily applicable knowledge Global tuberculosis surveillance The Handbook of Global Tuberculosis Control is urgent reading for leadership and staff of non-governmental organizations, government agencies, academic institutions, research centers, hospitals, and potentially businesses with interests in tuberculosis control. Additionally, the book's focus on TB in developing countries will attract a wider audience of practitioners, particularly those working in the broader fields of global public health, epidemiology, international development, and the socioeconomics of infectious diseases.
