Description
Soumyya Mondal and five co-authors reported in two thousand twenty-four on tuberculosis outside the lungs at one large hospital. They used records of samples sent for a fast gene test called CBNAAT. The study covers cases from January two thousand twenty to December two thousand twenty-two.
Out of more than a thousand samples, about one in five tested positive for the TB germ. More positive samples came from women than from men. By sorting results by body site and age, the study shows where this form of TB shows up most. That picture can help labs and clinics plan testing and care.
