Poor drug compliance and drug-resistant are the two principal obstacles in controlling tuberculosis (TB) in endemic regions including India, which has contributed the most to global TB burden. We argue here that a personalized medicine approach, to start with the -acetyl transferase-2-isoniazid (NAT2-INH) model, could be a step forward in dealing with both these limitations in controlling TB in India.
药物依从性差和耐药性是包括印度在内的结核病流行地区控制结核病的两大主要障碍,印度对全球结核病负担的贡献最大。我们在此认为,一种个性化医疗方法,首先从N-乙酰转移酶-2-异烟肼(NAT2-INH)模型入手,可能是在印度应对控制结核病的这两大限制方面向前迈出的一步。
