Use of interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) and CXCL-10/IP-10 for screening of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis patients

2024-08-10

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background There is growing evidence that patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) show a high risk of acquiring latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) or of developing active TB. However, diagnosing LTBI is still a challenge based on current tests which reflect the cellular immunity against <italic>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</italic> infection – that may be compromised in this populat...
