2013, International Journal of MycobacteriologyCitation Excerpt :Despite the availability of highly efficacious treatment for decades and the adoption of DOTS by the NTP (Pakistan’s National Tuberculosis Control Program) in 1995, these latest statistics showed an alarming increase over previously reported burden of TB in Pakistan [4]. Risk factors for TB identified in other parts of the world include intensive immigration from high prevalence to low prevalence countries, contact with a TB patient, poor socio-demographic factors, tobacco smoking, alcohol abuse, HIV infection and institutionalization [5–12]. The role of these and other locally prevalent risk factors threatening TB control in Pakistan are yet to be fully established.
