Risk factors for the development of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (review)
In order to identify XDR TB risk factors, an analysis of scientific publications in the Google Scholar, E-library.ru, PubMed, Cyberleninka databases was carried out. The search depth is 10 years (2010-2019). A total of 1810 sources were found, of which the goals of our study 51 were met. The main factor associated with an increased risk of developing XDR TB is the previous treatment of tuberculosis in general and MDR TB in particular. To prevent the formation of XDR MBT, it is extremely important to study the effectiveness of new treatment regimens for M/XDR TB.
