Tracking multidrug resistant tuberculosis: a 30-year analysis of global, regional, and national trends.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To provide valuable insights for targeted interventions and resource allocation, our analysis delved into the multifaceted burden, trends, risks, and projections of multi drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB).

Methods
