    Abstract The current write-up is for Dr P.K.Sen TAI Gold Medal Oration Award for 2020 conferred to Dr Rupak Singla and delivered on 19 th December 2020. The title chosen for the oration was "Introduction and scale up of new anti-TB drugs in India: role of NITRD.ˮ However, in the oration the role this institute has played for overall scale up of Drug-resistant TB services in India under National Tuberculosis Elimination Programme (NTEP) at different times from the beginning of national TB programme has also been presented. National Institute of TB and Respiratory Diseases has travelled with our country from beginning of DR-TB care. It demonstrated for the first time use of a Standardized Treatment Regimen with second line drugs for MDR-TB in field conditions. NITRD assisted NTEP for the concept of DST guided treatment. This institute guided NTEP for the management of MDR-TB failure patients with Pre-XDR and XDR-TB. Also, NITRD assisted India for the introduction of newer DR-TB drugs and scale up of newer drugs across the country. The strength of NITRD include clinical expertise, laboratory support and training division. NITRD commitment is strong and will continue to support NTEP for all endeavors in future also.

    Abstract Tuberculosis has maximum burden among young population in developing countries like India. However, children and elderly form a special group where TB may have atypical presentation. This presents with epidemiological, diagnostic and treatment challenges in these groups which may need special attention in the national programmes for TB. Due to atypical presentation, elderly population is vulnerable to frequent misdiagnosis and disease may already be in advanced stage when correct diagnosis is made. Not only this, adjustment of drug dosages and high chances of adverse drug reaction make the management of TB more complicated in elderly. Mortality due to TB is also higher in this group as compared to young patients of TB. This view point briefly highlights the epidemiological, clinical and disease outcome aspects of TB disease in elderly patients.

    Abstract Multiple drugs taken for long duration in tuberculosis (TB) treatment, especially drug resistant TB (DR-TB), may produce adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Although any anti-TB drug can cause ADRs, but these are more common with drugs used for treatment of DR-TB. However, most of ADRs with these drugs are mild or moderate and can be managed if adequate supervision and monitoring is done. However, few ADRs can be severe or potentially life-threatening and may require removal of the offending drug(s). TB patients having comorbidities and on treatment for them may experience drug interaction with anti TB drugs and may require dose modification or change of drug. For a good TB treatment outcome patient's compliance should be ensured, and adverse events and drug interactions should be appropriately addressed by the clinicians. This article outlines the majority of the possible ADRs to anti-TB drugs used for management of DR-TB and their common drug interactions with practical recommendations to identify the possible drug(s) responsible and the most adequate management in each situation.

    Abstract Smoking, TB and Covid-19 are high prevalence entities with public health consequences. All three of them have a possible complex interaction at cellular level. Smoking behavior makes it difficult to maintain infection control measures. Smoking is known to increase TB infection and also adversely affect treatment outcomes in TB. There is also upcoming evidence which suggests that smoking and TB increase the risk of severe Covid-19 symptoms. Simple infection control measures like, social distancing, cough etiquette, isolation, hand hygiene, quarantine, use of masks etc. play a pivotal role in prevention of these diseases. There is need of strengthening of the public health policies and incorporation of the Covid-19 safety awareness measures into the various national programmes.

    Abstract The disease chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA), which has 3 million cases globally, has a substantial impact on global health. The morbidity and mortality it cause are also rather severe. Patients with modest immune suppression or those with underlying structural and chronic lung illnesses are more likely to develop this condition. CPA pose a diagnostic and management challenge to clinicians. The condition causes patients to have persistent respiratory difficulties, which lowers their quality of life, and the therapy is lengthy and offers few choices. Particularly in a nation like India, where tuberculosis (TB) is prevalent and patients exhibit identical signs and symptoms, a strong index of suspicion is required. Treated pulmonary TB patients, presenting with symptoms or chest x-ray abnormalities, especially those with presence of cavity are also more prone to develop CPA. The constellation of symptoms together with presence of microbiological criteria and suggestive radiology can help to reach at the diagnosis. The field of mycology has made major developments, but there is still much to understand about this illness and to establish timely diagnoses and make the best use of the existing treatment choices. The burden of CPA in patients with treated TB is highlighted in this article along with the most recent research and clinical guidelines.

    Abstract Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which can be at times fatal. Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) ensures adequate oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal, avoiding ventilator-induced lung injury. We present a case where a young woman with refractory respiratory failure caused by PTB, unresponsive to conventional mechanical ventilation, but was successfully managed with prolonged VV-ECMO support. The patient diagnosed with PTB was started on antitubercular treatment but went into respiratory failure and ARDS. The patient was put on mechanical ventilation, on which she was not improving. The patient was then put on ECMO. On the 9
