We classified three types of TB-bacilli disappearance in sputum of chemotherapically treated patients whose sputum had been free from bacilli for 6 months or more, They are abrupt-, intermediate-, and lax-types.
These three types evidently have a correlation with sex distinction, chemotherapy, and types of the disease. However, they seem to have more or less a relationship to chemotherapy anamnesis.
Especially, considerably they also seem to be connected with the improvements of the chest x-ray and the red cell sedimentation rate.
