Fig 2

(A) The care cascade for individuals with MDR TB in India in 2013, modified from [10] based on updated WHO MDR TB incidence estimates [23], and (B) the care cascade for individuals with rifampin-resistant TB in South Africa in 2013 [11]. Rifampin resistance is considered to be a surrogate marker for multidrug resistance. The Indian care cascade has 1-year recurrence-free survival as the final step, while the care cascade for South Africa stops at treatment success. Whiskers represent 95% confidence intervals. MDR, multidrug-resistant TB; TB, tuberculosis; WHO, World Health Organization.
