A group of randomly selected control households were enrolled to determine community prevalence of undetected TB and HIV. Field teams screened participants for TB symptoms, collected sputum specimens for smear microscopy and culture, provided HIV counseling and testing, and collected blood for CD4 testing.

The prevalence of TB in household contacts was 6,075 per 100,000 (95% confidence interval, 5,789\u20136,360 per 100,000), whereas the prevalence detected in randomly selected households was 407 per 100,000 (95% confidence interval, 0\u2013912 per 100,000; prevalence difference, 5,668 per 100,000; P &amp;lt; 0.001). TB detected among contacts was less likely to be smear-positive than in the index patients (6% vs. 22%; P &amp;lt; 0.001). Most contacts with culture-confirmed TB were asymptomatic. At least one case of undiagnosed TB was found in 141 (19%) of 727 contact versus 4 (1%) of 312 control households. HIV testing was positive in 166 (11%) of 1,568 contacts tested versus 76 (14%) of 521 control participants tested (odds ratio, 1.48; P = 0.02).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Active case finding in TB contact households should be considered to improve TB and HIV case detection in high-prevalence settings, but sensitive diagnostic tools are necessary.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1164\/rccm.201111-1941oc","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,16]],"date-time":"2012-03-16T02:02:49Z","timestamp":1331863369000},"page":"1110-1116","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":98,"title":["Community-based Targeted Case Finding for Tuberculosis and HIV in Household Contacts of Patients with Tuberculosis in South Africa"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"185","author":[{"given":"Adrienne E.","family":"Shapiro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Bloomberg School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland"},{"name":"Center for TB Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ebrahim","family":"Variava","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Modiehi H.","family":"Rakgokong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Perinatal HIV Research Unit, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Neshen","family":"Moodley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Perinatal HIV Research Unit, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Binnu","family":"Luke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Klerksdorp\/Tshepong Hospital Complex, North West Department of Health, Klerksdorp, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saeed","family":"Salimi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Klerksdorp\/Tshepong Hospital Complex, North West Department of Health, Klerksdorp, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Richard E.","family":"Chaisson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bloomberg School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland"},{"name":"Center for TB Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jonathan E.","family":"Golub","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bloomberg School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland"},{"name":"Center for TB Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Neil A.","family":"Martinson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for TB Research, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland"},{"name":"Perinatal HIV Research Unit, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026032101101456000_bib1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e1721","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0001721","article-title":"Has the DOTS strategy improved case finding or treatment success?
