Description
Damayanti Yengkhom and Adriana Weinberg review tuberculosis in pregnancy in a 2026 article. The disease is a leading cause of illness and death worldwide. Pregnant women face higher risk because pregnancy reshapes the immune system, and risk climbs further when HIV infection is also present.
The review explains how the germ spreads and harms the body, and how immune responses differ in pregnancy, with and without HIV. It gathers what is known about protection and care for this group. The authors close by naming gaps in knowledge that block better treatment and prevention for pregnant patients. Those gaps, they argue, should guide future studies.
