A realization that current treatments for this major public health epidemic are proving inadequate to control the disease and prevent development and spread of drug resistance has stimulated renewed activity during the past 5 to 10 years.

متن کاملAre interferon-γ release assays useful for diagnosing active tuberculosis in a high-burden setting?
Although interferon-γ release assays (IGRAs) are intended for diagnosing latent tuberculosis (TB), we hypothesised that in a high-burden setting: 1) the magnitude of the response when using IGRAs can distinguish active TB from other diagnoses; 2) IGRAs may aid in the diagnosis of smear-negative TB; and 3) IGRAs could be useful as rule-out tests for active TB. We evaluated the accuracy of two IG...
