Serial interferon-gamma release assays for latent tuberculosis in dialysis patients with end stage renal disease in a Korean population
BACKGROUND: Serial interferon-gamma-release-assay (IGRA) result can show variance due to within-subject variation and difference in host immune status, and may be affected by latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) treatment. We aimed to know the changes in QFT-IT (QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube) results...
