Immunological aspects of latent tuberculosis infection during pregnancy [PDF]

, 2022
Pregnancy-induced immune modulation might lead to reactivation of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). This thesis explores aspects of immune-based LTBI diagnostics and how pregnancy affects the immune control of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb ...

The Recent Development in the Diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Smart Medicine, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) remains a major global health challenge due to slow, low‐sensitivity traditional diagnostics. Rapid, highly sensitive point‐of‐care tests are critical for timely diagnosis and treatment, reducing transmission. This study reviews the evolution of MTB diagnostic tests, emphasizing advancements and addressing accessibility

The Diagnostic Value of Interleukin‐2 and Interferon‐γ Induced by Fusion Protein (ESAT‐6/CFP‐10/Rv1985c) for Active Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 39, Issue 5, March 2025.
A total of 970 cases, consisting of 215 active tuberculosis (ATB) cases and 755 non‐active tuberculosis (non‐ATB) cases, were enrolled in this study. The results indicated that the release assays of interleukin‐2 (IL‐2) and interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) induced by the fusion protein (ESAT—6/CFP—10/Rv1985c) were of great value in differentiating ATB from non‐ATB

Translational tuberculosis research: immune profile as biomarker of tuberculosis infection [PDF]

, 2018
Mtb is able to establish a chronic asintomatically infection mainly in the lung and the balance between host immune response and the mycobacteria plays a fundamental role in the control of the Mtb replication .

Geometric Relational Framework for General‐Relativistic Gauge Field Theories

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 1-2, February 2025.
Abstract It is recalled how relationality arises as the core insight of general‐relativistic gauge field theories from the articulation of the generalized hole and point‐coincidence arguments. Hence, a compelling case for a manifestly relational framework ensues naturally.

Characterization of the CD4 and CD8 T-cell response in the QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus kit

International Journal of Mycobacteriology, 2016
Objective/background: QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube (QFT-GIT, Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) is an interferon-γ (IFN-γ) release assay designed to detect latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). Although QFT-GIT has several advantages (mainly that it is not affected

Low concordance between QIAreach QuantiFERON-TB, a novel interferon-gamma release assay, and QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus, in a population-based survey in Blantyre, Malawi

Journal of Clinical Microbiology
Urgent improvements in the diagnosis and management of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection are required to reach End TB goals. Conventional interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs), such as QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus), require substantial ...
