An evaluation of Innowave MTB/RIF/INH assay versus Xpert MTB/RIF for rapid identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and drug resistance in bone and joint specimens from people with suspected osteoarticular tuberculosis

Microbiology Spectrum
Osteoarticular tuberculosis (TB) is hard to diagnose. We prospectively evaluated a novel molecular test, Innowave MTB/RIF/INH (InnowaveDX), against culture and Xpert MTB/RIF (Xpert)/MeltPro TB for detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and rifampicin

Identification of important modules and biomarkers in tuberculosis based on WGCNA

Frontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundTuberculosis (TB) is a significant public health concern, particularly in China. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can provide abundant pathological information regarding etiology and could include candidate biomarkers for diagnosis of TB. However,
