2020-06-11
Abstract excerpt
A non-sputum triage test to rule out TB disease is a WHO high-priority diagnostic and a combinatory score based on a 3-gene host-signature has shown promise in discriminating TB from other illnesses. We evaluated the accuracy of an early-prototype cartridge-assay (“Xpert MTB Host Response”, or Xpert-MTB-HR-Prototype) of this 3-gene signature on bio-banked blood-samples from PLHIV against a comprehensive microbiolo...
