In the Republic of Tatarstan, in the period 2012 to 2021 we observed a twofold decrease in the incidence of tuberculosis: from 48 cases per 100 thousand population to 23.4 cases per 100 thousand population. However, there is an increase in the proportion of patients with respirat…

The widespread paradigm that younger children usually do not transmit M. tuberculosis complex (Mtbc) to their contacts has not yet been proven by genotypically confirmed transmissions. Therefore, we undertook a systematic review of molecular-epidemiological studies to investigate…

The crisis spurred by the pandemic of COVID-19 has revealed weaknesses in our epidemiologic methodologic corpus, which scientists are struggling to compensate. This article explores whether this phenomenon is characteristic of pandemics or not. Since the emergence of population-b…
