#UnionConf2024 Disappointing results from EXULTANT trial which found no increase in TB diagnosed with universal sputum, urine (Xpert &LAM) and stool Xpert compared to standard algorithm in hospitalized patients with HIV. Most were symptomatic so absolute benefit only 4% extra (powered for 7%)

#UnionConf2024 intriguing talk on serum LAM with some promising results. Very small numbers and no details on what the test complexity will be but watch this space…..

Can an electronic stethoscope with AI predict disease severity? Seems that there is an interesting initial signal that needs further testing out…. #UnionConf2024

It’s time for access for all. #UnionConf2024

#UnionConf2024 Why are 1.3m people still dying of TB? Despite increasing access to TB drugs we need to do more. Lots of wins getting drug prices down but battles take time and effort- people die waiting!
Great talk by Christopher Perrin
