Abstract:

Tuberculosis and depression are both global public health concerns. There is a complex interplay between tuberculosis and depression. This review focuses on the literature on prevalence, risk factors, and mechanisms of interaction between these two diseases. We also summarize the progress on the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for patients with both tuberculosis and depression. By reviewing the research progression in these comorbidities, we aim to extend our understanding on their underlying interaction, which is of great importance for formulating effective strategies on clinical management of these patients, and pointing out the avenues of future research.

Key words: Tuberculosis, Depressive disorder, Comorbidity, Research
