Xpert MTB/RIF assay for the diagnosis of extrapulmonary tuberculosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Xpert MTB/RIF (Cepheid, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) is endorsed for the detection of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the accuracy of Xpert for the detection of extrapulmonary TB. We searched multiple databases to October 15, 2013. We determined the accuracy of Xpert compared with culture and a composite reference standard (CRS). We grouped data ...
متن کاملRapid Diagnosis of Childhood Pulmonary Tuberculosis by Xpert MTB/RIF Assay Using Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid
In order to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the Xpert MTB/RIF assay on childhood pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), we evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of Xpert MTB/RIF assay using BALF in comparison with acid-fast bacilli (AFB) microscopy and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) culture for dia...
متن کاملRapid diagnosis of tuberculosis using Xpert MTB/RIF assay - Report from a developing country
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the Xpert MTB/RIF assay for the detection of M. tuberculosis in pulmonary and extrapulmonary specimens and to compare it with conventional techniques. METHODS During a period of 10 months from December 2012 through September 2013, two hundred and forty five clinically TB suspects were enrolled for Xpert MTB\RIF assay. The cohort comprised of 20...
متن کاملRapid diagnosis of extra pulmonary tuberculosis by automated Xpert MTB/RIF assay
Introduction Although extra pulmonary tuberculosis accounts for only 10-15% of tuberculosis in India, they have high morbidity and mortality because of lack of good diagnostic methods. One of the recent molecular methods namely the Xpert MTB/RIF is a fully automated real time PCR system that detects M. tuberculosis (Mtb) complex and rifampicin resistance directly from clinical samples. This ass...
متن کاملEvaluation of Xpert MTB/RIF for the Diagnosis of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis in China.
We evaluate the performance of Xpert MTB/RIF for the diagnosis of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) in China. The performance of Xpert was evaluated compared to the composite reference standard (CRS), drug susceptibility testing (DST), and imaging examination. The overall sensitivity and specificity of Xpert were 64.1% (195/304) and 100% (24/24), respectively, using CRS as the gold standard. T...
