A high drop-out rate (over 80% in one year) was revealed by an analysis made on the treatment cohort of the year 1976, with a total of 580 bacteriologically confirmed cases treated at the Tuberculosis Centre, Kabul. The rate was significantly higher among cases from outside of Kabul Province, suggesting an important role of the distance between the centre and the residence. The minimal requirement for the one-year treatment completion rate for achieving a positive impact of the programme on the tuberculosis problem was discussed, and recommendations were made for the improvement of the treatment regularity.
