    Classification
    Infection with Mycobacterium tuburculosis
    Description
    • Infection: TB is transmitted when a person with active TB coughs or sneezes, releasing microscopic particles into the air. These particles, also called droplet nuclei, contain live tubercle bacteria, and may result in infection when inhaled by another person. Once infected by TB, most people, remain healthy and develop only latent infection. People with latent infection are neither sick nor infectious. However, they do have the potential to become sick and infectious with active TB. ( GMHC An earli OI: Active TB often occurs early in the course of HIV infection, often months or years before other OIs. In fact, TB may be the first indication that a person is HIV-infected. TB also causes disease outside the lungs of HIV-infected people, particularly in the later stages of AIDS. (

    People Profiles
    Dr. David Alexander Stewart (1874-1937)
    Dr. David A. Stewart was the eldest son of Francis Beattie Stewart and Elizabeth Farquharson Stewart who left Aberdeenshire in the UK, and settled at Fletcher, Ontario, until 1891 when they moved to Morden, Manitoba. After graduation from Arts, and two preliminary years in Theology at Manitoba College, the young Stewart spent his summer at the mission in Frank, Alberta. Here, he met and befriended Dr. George Malcolmson, who had recently opened a small hospital beside his home. As a result of his summer with Dr. Malcolmson, Stewart opted for a change in vocation.
    People - Archibald - Dalton - Cook - Fagan ... - Wodehouse
    Returning again to Manitoba in the Fall, Stewart resumed study not in Theology, but in Medicine, and emerged four years later, Dr. D.A. Stewart. To support his medical studies, Stewart became a reporter for the Winnipeg Free Press, and then followed with a residency at Winnipeg General Hospital. After spending some time working in various hospitals in New York City, attending the World TB Congress in Washington in 1908, and completing an assistantship in a Connecticut sanatorium, Dr. Stewart returned once again to Manitoba. At this time, he accepted a position with the Sanatorium Board, who wished to open a tuberculosis sanatorium in Manitoba. Dr. Stewart's dedication to his cause, applied through travel and lectures for raising funds, made him a target for the very disease he was trying to fight. For a short time, Dr. Stewart became a patient himself, at the Trudeau Sanatorium at Saranac Lake, New York

    Contents
    Introduction
    Between 2000 and 2020, it is estimated that 1 billion people will be infected with TB bacteria, 200 million will develop TB disease, and 35 million will die from the disease [10, pg 624]. In developed countries such as the US and the UK, TB treatment is available through the public health system and through private physicians. However, TB is a global issue, and its spread is serious and cannot always be contained, even in these developed countries with sound treatment technology. It is important that health care officials do not stop trying to control the spread of TB even in developed countries. The rise in TB cases in the 1980s and 1990s has been attributed by the CDC to the failed efforts of health care officials to keep the infection under control [5]. One of the most important aspects of TB as a global issue is its transmission to and infection in children. Family members with TB can easily spread TB to their children; the special attention and care that an ill child must receive demands constant adult supervision, which may lead to a rise in TB cases worldwide. This article focuses on TB in children in developed countries. For the perspective on this disease elsewhere, see

    What is tuberculosis? What causes tuberculosis?
    Tuberculosis, sometimes referred to as TB, is a disease caused by an organism called mycobacterium tuberculosis. The mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria can attack any part of the body, but most commonly attack the lungs.
    The spread of tuberculosis (TB)
    A patient with tuberculosis (TB) covers her mouth in an attempt to stop the spread of disease A person can have active or inactive tuberculosis. Active tuberculosis or TB disease means the bacteria are active in the body and the immune system is unable to stop them from causing illness. People with active tuberculosis in their lungs can pass the bacteria on to anyone they come into close contact with. When a person with active tuberculosis coughs, sneezes or spits, people nearby may breathe in the tuberculosis bacteria and become infected. Left untreated, each person with active tuberculosis will infect on average between 10 and 15 people every year. People can also be infected with tuberculosis that is not active in the body. Inactive tuberculosis infection is also called latent tuberculosis. If a person has latent tuberculosis, it means their body has been able to successfully fight the bacteria and stop them from causing illness. People who have latent tuberculosis do not feel sick, do not have symptoms and cannot spread tuberculosis. In some people tuberculosis bacteria remain inactive for a lifetime without becoming active. But in some other people the inactive tuberculosis may become active tuberculosis if their immune system becomes weakened - for example by HIV. People with inactive tuberculosis are also called TB carriers.

    Medical warning!
    This article is from the 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica. Medical science has made many leaps forward since it has been written. This is not a site for medical advice, when you need information on a medical condition, consult a professional instead. TUBERCULOSIS. The word "tuberculosis," as now used, signifies invasion of the body by the tubercle bacillus, and is applied generally to all morbid conditions set up by the presence of the active parasite . The name is derived from the "tubercles" or "little lumps" which are formed in tissues invaded by the bacillus; these were observed and described long before their real nature or causation was known. (For an account of the organism, which was discovered by Koch in 1882, see Parasitic Diseases .) The bacillus attacks every organ and tissue of the body, but some much more frequently than others. The commonest seats of tuberculous disease are the lungs, lymphatic glands, bones, serous membranes , mucous membranes, intestines and liver . Before the discovery of the bacillus its effects in different parts of the body received separate names and were classified as distinct diseases. For instance, tuberculosis of the

    Infection and transmission
    Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease. Like the common cold, it spreads through the air. Only people who are sick with TB in their lungs are infectious. When infectious people cough, sneeze, talk or spit, they propel TB germs, known as bacilli, into the air. A person needs only to inhale a small number of these to be infected. Related links

    More on tuberculosis

    Left untreated, each person with active TB disease will infect on average between 10 and 15 people every year. But people infected with TB bacilli will not necessarily become sick with the disease. The immune system "walls off" the TB bacilli which, protected by a thick waxy coat, can lie dormant for years. When someone's immune system is weakened, the chances of becoming sick are greater.
    • Overall, one-third of the world's population is currently infected with the TB bacillus.
