Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on innovations in the diagnosis and treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and aims to provide insights from institutions' collaboration research and clinical trials. MDR-TB is a significant global health concern, posing challenges to effective diagnosis and treatment. The Issue aims to address the current situation of MDR-TB and explore various aspects related to diagnosis, treatment, innovations, research, clinical trials, collaboration, and institutions. By examining these areas, we hope to gain a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities in managing MDR-TB.
We welcome original research, clinical trial results, and comprehensive reviews as submissions. Scholars are encouraged to propose innovative approaches and interventions to address the challenges posed by MDR-TB. This may involve developing new diagnostic tools, evaluating novel treatment regimens, exploring predictive models, and examining the impact of institutional collaboration.
Through the collaboration of diverse perspectives and expertise, we can foster an environment that promotes knowledge exchange and facilitates advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of MDR-TB.
