four cases of polyarthritis concomitant with active tuberculosis is reported. in three patients pulmonary tuberculosis was confirmed by identification of mycobacterium tuberculosis in the sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage specimens, and in another one tuberculous lymphadenitis was confirmed by excisional biopsy. in all patients arthritis resolved by tuberculosis treatment and did not recur duri...

A copper-catalyzed domino protocol for the synthesis of 2-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)aniline derivatives has been developed from simple and available isatins and hydrazides. This domino process integrated consecutive condensation, base-promoted ring-opening and the key copper-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling for intramolecular C-O bond formation.

BACKGROUND Risk factors and treatment outcomes under program conditions for isoniazid (INH)-monoresistant tuberculosis have not been well described. METHODS Medical charts were retrospectively reviewed for all cases of culture-confirmed, INH-monoresistant tuberculosis ( n = 137) reported to the San Francisco Department of Public Health Tuberculosis Control Section from October 1992 through Oc...

A novel method to synthesise 2-arylindoles is demonstrated via direct arylation of indoles with arylsulfonyl hydrazides. Under the optimized reaction conditions, the reaction well tolerates a wide variety of functional groups to afford structurally diverse 2-arylindoles in good to excellent yields at 70 °C.

Palladium-catalyzed desulfitative and denitrogenative arylation of azoles with arylsulfonyl hydrazides has been achieved. A broad scope of azoles and arylsulfonyl hydrazides has been used to produce arylated azoles in high yields.

A systematic investigation on the metal-free, Cope-type hydroamination reactivity of hydrazides and analogues is reported. Optimization of the hydrazide structure resulted in more facile intramolecular reactivity and enabled intermolecular reactions of alkenes, thus providing a direct approach to polysubstituted hydrazides.

background: peritoneal tuberculosis accounts 1-2% of all forms of tuberculosis. peritoneal tuberculosis is an important differential diagnosis for ovarian cancer in women with ascites, adnexal mass and elevated cancer antigen 125 (ca125) levels. we report a case of a 32- year -old woman with multiple miliary peritoneal deposits mimicking advanced ovarian carcinoma. case presentation: a 32-year-...

Anti-tuberculosis medications can cause various side effects, including drug rash. When a patient on anti-tuberculosis treatment (ATT) develops rash, we usually stop all medicines, rechallenge the patient with medications individually, and find the offending agent. It should be mentioned that drug rash can be also a manifestation of other diseases. Herein, we report a case of tuberculosis who d...

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by the germ Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The group of bacteria in addition to tuberculosis that can cause disorders airways known as MOTT (Mycobacterium Other Than Tuberculosis), which sometimes interfere with enforcement TB diagnosis and treatment. (TB) a high burden for Indonesia, not only because itself, but also its resistant several first-line dr...
