Point of care tests for tuberculosis (TB) : economic analysis report [PDF]

A number of clinical/disease areas have been prioritised by the TSB and DH for the DIIA Innovation Platform. To support commissioning of technology developments in the area of tuberculosis detection in humans, a scoping review has been undertaken to help

A new mathematical model to identify contacts with recent and remote latent tuberculosis

ERJ Open Research, 2019
Tuberculosis (TB) elimination programmes need to target preventive treatment to groups with an increased risk of TB activation, such as individuals with a latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) acquired recently. Current diagnostic tests for LTBI have poor

GEOSPATIAL ANALYSIS OF PEDIATRIC TUBERCULOSIS IN BOHOL, PHILIPPINES: DISEASE CLUSTERS AND ACCESS TO CARE [PDF]

, 2019
Worldwide, children represent approximately 10% of global tuberculosis (TB) cases. We recently reported a high tuberculin skin test (TST)-positive prevalence (355/5,476; weighted prevalence=6.4%) among children (\u3c15 years) throughout the island of ...

Comparison of the Single Cell Immune Landscape between Subjects with High Mycobacterium tuberculosis Bacillary Loads during Active Pulmonary Tuberculosis and Household Members with Latent Tuberculosis Infection

Cells
It is unclear how the immune system controls the transition from latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) to active pulmonary infection (PTB). Here, we applied mass spectrometry cytometry time-of-flight (CyTOF) analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear ...

Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI): a real host defence or a permanent threat? [PDF]

Le infezioni in medicina, 2016
Screening of latent infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (LTBI) and treatment of positive subjects is the key point in the prevention of TB; such a strategy should be performed mainly among individuals with risk of progression. Progression from LTBI to active TB is highest both in recent contacts of patients with active TB, and in immunocompromised ...

A quadral biosignature of IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-12 and IP-10 increases the diagnostic potential for latent tuberculosis among diabetic patients in Uganda

BMC Immunology
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) increases both the risk of acquiring latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) and progression to active TB. The immunological mechanisms underlying the increased susceptibility remain poorly understood.
