This document discusses treatment considerations for patients co-infected with tuberculosis (TB) and HIV. It summarizes evidence on initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART) in patients being treated for TB. Starting ART earlier reduces HIV disease progression and death, but increases the risk of TB-immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS). Later ART initiation reduces IRIS risk, but increases HIV disease progression and death risks. The optimal time to start ART in TB patients may depend on their CD4 count and differs according to the individual's risks.

Is a condition seen in some cases of AIDS or immunosuppression, in which the immune system begins to recover, but then responds to a previously acquired opportunistic infection with an overwhelming inflammatory response that paradoxically makes the symptoms of infection worse.
Tuberkulosis (TB) pada anak merupakan masalah khusus yang berbeda dengan TB pada orang dewasa. Perkembangan penyakit TB pada anak saat ini sangat pesat. Sekurang-kurangnya 500.000 anak di dunia menderita TB setiap tahun. Di Indonesia proporsi kasus TB Anak di antara semua kasus TB yang ternotifikasi dalam program TB berada dalam batas normal yaitu 8-11 %, tetapi apabila dilihat pada tingkat provinsi sampai fasilitas pelayanan kesehatan menunjukkan variasi proporsi yang cukup lebar yaitu 1,8 – 15,9%.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

29. ART & TB: what lies ahead?
• More data needed on PI use with rifampicin
• New TB drug-ARV interactions need to be
established
• If RCTs to prevent TB-IRIS (NSAIDs, low dose
steroids) are successful, this may allow safe
earlier ART use
• New TB drug regimens likely to clear antigens
faster, which should IRIS risk, and earlier ART
initiation may be safer
Editor's Notes
This study was done in HIV+ volunteers (not with TB, subsequent study of 18 in PLOS One was in TB patients) Double dose LPV overcame effects of rif on LPV concentrationsNeed for more clinical data to assess tolerability of double dose LPV with TB therapyPharmaceutical companies won’t do PI-rif interactions following bad experience with HNVs
150 mg daily results in higher concentration – risk of uveitis & neutropenia (both dose related). 150 mg 3 × a week results in lower concentrations – risk of developing rifamycin resistance. Other doses need to be studied.
ART, antiretroviral therapy; BID, twice daily; EFV, efavirenz; RAL, raltegravir; TB, tuberculosis. Ian M. Sanne, MBBCH, FCP (SA): The REFLATE study, supported by the ANRS and conducted predominantly in Brazil, has been much awaited. This phase II trial evaluated alternative antiretroviral treatment options in combination with rifampicin-based tuberculosis treatment in patients with HIV/tuberculosis coinfection. A total of 154 patients were randomly assigned to receive the standard dose of raltegravir (400 mg twice daily), an escalated dose of raltegravir (800 mg twice daily), or standard care with efavirenz, all in combination with tenofovir, lamivudine, and a rifampicin-containing tuberculosis regimen.For more information about this study, go online to: http://www.clinicaloptions.com/HIV/Conference%20Coverage/AIDS%202012/Tracks/Highlights%20From%20AIDS%202012/Capsules/THLBB01.aspx
ART, antiretroviral therapy; D/C = F, discontinuation equals failure; EFV, efavirenz; ITT, intent to treat; M = F, missing equals failure; RAL, raltegravir; VL, viral load. Ian M. Sanne, MBBCH, FCP (SA): Overall, the study results were similar in the 2 raltegravir-containing arms. Although no statistics were provided and the sample size is too small for statistical analysis, there was a numerical benefit in the proportion of patients with virologic suppression at 24 weeks for the raltegravir arms. In addition, the shorter time to HIV-1 RNA suppression with the integrase inhibitor regimens that we discussed earlier was again demonstrated in this study. What was not discussed was whether this influenced tuberculosis outcomes, which the investigators will be analyzing in the future. For example, it would be interesting to see whether an integrase-containing HIV regimen would affect the time to sputum conversion in patients with tuberculosis. The standard dose and the escalated dose of raltegravir provided similar results, which elicits the question of whether the lowest possible dose for therapeutic raltegravir activity has been identified. The pharmacokinetic data for this study were not presented, and we await those results with anticipation.For more information about this study, go online to: http://www.clinicaloptions.com/HIV/Conference%20Coverage/AIDS%202012/Tracks/Highlights%20From%20AIDS%202012/Capsules/THLBB01.aspx
