Risk Factors Associated with Positive QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube and Tuberculin Skin Tests Results in Zambia and South Africa
INTRODUCTION: The utility of T-cell based interferon-gamma release assays for the diagnosis of latent tuberculosis infection remains unclear in settings with a high burden of tuberculosis. OBJECTIVES: To determine risk factors associated with positive QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube (QFT-GIT) and tuberc...
