Evaluation of a point-of-care immunoassay test kit ‘StrongStep’ for cryptococcal antigen detection

BACKGROUND: HIV-associated cryptococcal meningitis is the leading cause of adult meningitis in Sub-Saharan Africa, accounting for 15%–20% of AIDS-attributable mortality. The development of point-of-care assays has greatly improved the screening and diagnosis of cryptococcal disease. We evaluated a p...
