Tuberculosis (TB) rates among prisoners are more than 20 times that of the general population in Brazil, yet there limited data available to facilitate development effective interventions this high-transmission setting. We aimed assess risk factors for TB infection and evaluate yield mass screening active disease inmates. administered a questionnaire tuberculin skin test (TST) population-based sample inmates from 12 prisons Central-West Brazil collected sera HIV testing two sputum samples...
The aim of this multicenter, cross sectional study was to assess the prevalence, incidence and associated risk factors among incarcerated populations from twelve Brazilian prisons. total 3,368 individuals prisons randomly recruited between March 2013 2014.

Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and/or antibodies against hepatitis core (anti-HBc) positive...
Transfusion-transmitted leishmaniasis has been a concern in regions endemic for the disease. Whether immediate or delayed, risks posed by this mode of transmission call careful assessment. The purpose study was to detect Leishmania infection blood donors living an area and investigate progression disease these individuals. Immunofluorescent antibody test, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, rapid polymerase chain reaction were applied 430 initial evaluation. Of those with at least one...
The number of new syphilis cases in Brazil has risen alarmingly recent years. However, there is limited data regarding prevalence the Brazilian prison population. To facilitate development effective interventions, a cross-sectional study was undertaken to determine Treponema pallidum infection, active syphilis, and associated risk factors among prisoners. We administered questionnaire population-based sample prisoners from 12 prisons Central-West collected sera for testing, January December...
Viral hepatitis, syphilis, HIV, and tuberculosis infections in prisons have been identified globally as a public health problem. Tuberculosis (TB) viral hepatitis co-infection may increase the risk of anti-tuberculosis treatment-induced hepatotoxicity, leading to frequent cause discontinuation first-line drugs. Therefore, aim this cross-sectional study was investigate epidemiological features HCV, HBV, syphilis HIV among bacteriologically confirmed prisoners Campo Grande (MS), Central...
