Objective. Use of tuberculin skin tests (TSTs) and interferon gamma release assays (IGRAs) as part of tuberculosis (TB) screening among immigrants from high TB-burden countries has not been fully evaluated. Methods. Prevalence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (MTBI) based on TST, or the QuantiFERON-TB Gold test (QFT-G), was determined among immigrant applicants in Vietnam bound for the U...
INTRODUCTION Immunosuppressive therapy with anti-tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) agents in rheumatic patients modulates the immune system and may increase the risk of reactivating infections that are normally maintained in a latent state, such as tuberculosis. The purpose of this study was to analyse the value of QuantiFERON TB Gold In-Tube (QFT IT) and tuberculin skin test (TST) in BCG vaccin...
Objective Toxicology screening tests for drugs-of-abuse and therapeutic drugs in urine (TST-U) are often used to assess whether a patient's clinical condition can be explained by the use of drugs-of-abuse (DOA) and/or therapeutic drugs. TST-U have clinical value when they support clinical decision making by influencing diagnosis and patient care. We aim to quantify the influence of TST-U result...
Abstract Introduction American adults are typically sleep deprived during weekdays and attempt to recover on the weekends. Technological advances in home monitoring have provided opportunity analyze patterns a scale much larger than previously imaginable. This study explores weekly REM deprivation–recovery cycle large U.S. sample. Methods Estimated total time (TST) REM/TST (R%) were analyzed by...
OBJECTIVE To describe developmental characteristics, morphological aspects and incidence of temporal sharp transients (TST) in normal preterm and term newborns at matched conceptional ages (CA). METHOD Neonatal EEGs from two groups of normal newborns were evaluated in order to identify and characterize TST. Group I (n=40) consisted of newborns from 34 to 40 weeks of gestational age (GA) that ...
BACKGROUND Reactivation of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (LTBI) is a health concern for patients on dialysis or receiving a kidney transplant, as these patients are often immunosuppressed. The most frequently used test for LTBI screening in this population is the tuberculin skin test (TST). The diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity and specificity) of the TST in a contemporary North Am...
BACKGROUND Immunologic tests such as the tuberculin skin test (TST) and QuantiFERON®-TB Gold In-Tube test (QFT-GIT) are designed to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, both latent M. tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and infection manifesting as active tuberculosis disease (TB). These tests need high specificity to minimize unnecessary treatment and high sensitivity to allow maximum detect...
OBJECTIVE In Fukujuji Hospital, we have been conducting TST to tuberculosis (TB) non-infected staffs to find new latent TB Infection (LTBI) every year, although almost of them were BCG vaccinated, and the reliability of TST is controversial in BCG vaccinated group. Recently, a new technique, QFT-2G, is evaluated highly to detect TB infection, especially in BCG vaccinated individuals. We examine...
BACKGROUND Bovine tuberculosis (TB) control programs generally rely on the tuberculin skin test (TST) for ante-mortem detection of Mycobacterium bovis-infected cattle. RESULTS Present findings demonstrate that a rapid antibody test based on Dual-Path Platform (DPP®) technology, when applied 1-3 weeks after TST, detected 9 of 11 and 34 of 52 TST non-reactive yet M. bovis-infected cattle from t...
