The Value of the Second QuantiFERON-TB Gold-Plus Antigen Tube at Diagnosis and at Treatment Completion in Spanish Children with Tuberculosis.
The Pediatric infectious disease journal/The pediatric infectious disease journal(2023)
摘要
We studied 295 children (tuberculosis disease, n = 159; latent tuberculosis infection, n = 136) with positive QuantiFERON-TB Gold-Plus assay results. No significant differences between first and second antigen tube interferon-gamma responses were detected, irrespective of patient and disease characteristics at diagnosis. Of patients with a repeat assay after treatment completion (n = 65), only 16.9% converted to negative results.
