Pemphigus Patients Receiving Rituximab: Latent Tuberculosis Risk and Diagnostic Concordance Between Tuberculin Skin Test and Interferon‐Gamma Release Assay

Dermatologic Therapy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background and Aim Rituximab (RTX) therapy in pemphigus patients necessitates reliable latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) screening to prevent reactivation. The tuberculin skin test (TST) and Interferon‐Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) are commonly used, yet discrepancies in their results create uncertainty, particularly in immunocompromised hosts ...

Machine learning model based on SERPING1, C1QB, and C1QC: A novel diagnostic approach for latent tuberculosis infection

iLABMED, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 248-265, December 2024.
Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is an important source of active tuberculosis (ATB), but there is currently a lack of effective diagnostic tools to distinguish ATB from LTBI. In this study, by integrating transcriptome data analysis, a machine learning algorithm and protein interaction network analysis, an LTBI diagnosis model based on SERPING1 ...
