Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the life-threatening infectious diseases with prehistoric origins and occurs in almost all habitable parts of the world. TB mainly affects the lungs, and its etiological agent is Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). In 2022, ...
The most widely practiced strategy for constructing the deep learning (DL) prediction model for drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) involves the adoption of ready-made and state-of-the-art architectures usually proposed for non-biolog...
Tuberculosis (TB) is a global lethal disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). The flavoenzyme decaprenylphosphoryl-β-d-ribose 2'-oxidase (DprE1) plays a crucial part in the biosynthesis of lipoarabinomannan and arabinogalactan for the cell...

Tuberculosis (TB) is the world's deadliest infectious disease, with over 1.5 million deaths and 10 million new cases reported anually. The causative organism (Mtb) can take nearly 40 d to culture, a required step to determine the pathogen's antibiot...
Predicting outcomes in pulmonary tuberculosis is challenging despite effective treatments. This study aimed to identify factors influencing treatment success and culture conversion, focusing on artificial intelligence (AI)-based chest X-ray analysis ...
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) kills approximately 1.6 million people yearly despite the fact anti-TB drugs are generally curative. Therefore, TB-case detection and monitoring of therapy, need a comprehensive approach. Automated radiological analysis,...
