Diagnostic performance of Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra assay for tuberculosis in stool specimens among adult presumptive TB patients in a generalized HIV epidemic setting

2026-08-24

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND Diagnosis of Tuberculosis (TB) from stool specimen using the Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra assay (Xpert-Ultra assay) is important to confirm diagnosis for presumptive TB patients who are unable to produce sputum. We evaluated diagnostic performance of the Xpert-Ultra assay in stool specimen among adult migrant population living in generalized HIV epidemic situation.  METHODS A prospective, cross-sectional study w...
