From Binet's work the IQ scale called the Binet Scale, (and later the Simon-Binet Scale) was developed. Sometime later, intelligence quotient, or IQ, entered our vocabulary.
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that usually attacks the lungs, but can attack almost any part of the body. Tuberculosis is spread from person to person through the air. When a person with TB in their lungs or throat coughs, laughs, sneezes, sings, or even talks, the germs that cause TB may spread through the air.
Tuberculosis can spread to the bones. The bacteria Mycobacteria tuberculosis causes tuberculosis. Although tuberculosis, or TB, primarily affects the lungs, it can spread through the blood stream to other sites, a circumstance called extrapulmonary or disseminated tuberculosis.atients with TB in their bones might or might not exhibit generalized signs of tuberculosis such as fever, fatigue, night sweats and unexplained weight loss. According to Drs. Golden and Vikram, patients with spinal TB typically experience generalized symptoms, while those with articular TB generally do not.
