AU - Tuberculosis Research Unit at Case Western Reserve University PY - 2014 DA - 2014/01/13 TI - Wasting among Uganda men with pulmonary tuberculosis is associated with linear regain in lean tissue mass during and after treatment in contrast to women with wasting who regain fat tissue mass: prospective cohort study JO - BMC Infectious Diseases SP - 24 VL - 14 IS - 1 AB - Nutritional changes during and after tuberculosis treatment have not been well described. We therefore determined the effect of wasting on rate of mean change in lean tissue and fat mass as measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), and mean change in body mass index (BMI) during and after tuberculosis treatment.
