enhancement of the 6MWT outcome in this study was 23.93 m. The result is comparable with that of a two-month supplementation of arginine among TB patients that resulted in 30.0 m improvement. A related review study also supports the notion that the macronutrient supplementation among patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis may improve physical function in addition to body weight. Besides 6MWT‚ other tools have been applied to assess functional ability in TB active patients‚ such as timed stand test
