简要总结
The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the inflammation controlling effect of Vitamin D supplementation due to the antibacterial effect along with standard therapy in pulmonary TB patients via the AGE-RAGE pathway. The vitamin D deficient patients will be recruited and will be divided in to two groups, standard therapy and vitamin D along with standard therapy. Baseline level detection of different inflammatory molecules in the pathway will be analysed in both groups. When patients will become sputum negative, again different inflammatory molecules in the pathway will be analysed in both groups.
