This retrospective analysis of 106 US-born adults with prevalent tuberculosis in 2011 found that 46.2% had documented histories of being in jail or prison, including 16.0% during the year before diagnosis.

Methods-From 2009 to 2012 a retrospective cohort study among reported TB cases in Georgia was conducted. Patients aged ≥16 years were classified by DM and HIV status at time of TB diagnosis and followed during TB treatment to assess mortality. Hazard ratios (HR) were used to estimate the association between DM and death. Results-Among 1,325 patients with TB disease, 151 (11.4%) had DM, 147 (11.1%) were HIVinfected, and 7 (0.5%) had both DM and HIV. Patients with TB-DM were more likely to have

Evaluations published in the scientific literature of such community linkage programs are scant. Our quantitative and qualitative methods needs analysis and pilot study entailed interviewing convenience samples of 24 HIV-positive persons recently released from Georgia correctional facilities and 12 potential volunteer mentors. Both releasees and potential mentors were open to the establishment of a mentoring program. Releasees wanted nonjudgmental mentors. Releasees and volunteers had statistically significant differences in marital status, education, current employment, and possession of a driver's license but not in degree of religious involvement and attitudes toward condom use. A volunteer-staffed program, perhaps more aptly named "life coaching" than mentoring, to help HIV-infected persons to transition from prison to the community may be feasible. Success will require adequately trained volunteers and a straightforward program.
