Peritoneal Dialysis–Related Peritonitis: Atypical and Resistant Organisms
2017, Seminars in NephrologyCitation Excerpt :The risk of active tuberculosis is increased dramatically by many factors that affect the innate and adaptive immune systems,10 including older age, presence of diabetes mellitus, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection11 (Table 2). Although the relative risk for developing active tuberculosis in patients with end-stage renal disease is 5 to 15 times greater than in the general population,12-16 the reported incidence of tuberculous peritonitis is low (<3%),11 with a higher prevalence in Asian countries.17 The diagnosis is challenging and often delayed, with fewer than half of all cases diagnosed before 6 weeks after the initial presentation.11,17

2011, CMAJ. Canadian Medical Association JournalCitation Excerpt :This increase is most likely caused by the effect of recent exposure to tuberculosis before arrival.39 A practical Web-based tool can be used to help calculate the lifetime risk of active tuberculosis based on these factors (www.tstin3d.com/index.html)40 (Tables 1 and 2).41–80 The tuberculin skin test and interferon gamma release assays (IGRAs) are available for diagnosing latent tuberculosis infection.
