Comparison of latent tuberculosis infection screening strategies before tumor necrosis factor inhibitor treatment in inflammatory arthritis: IGRA-alone versus combination of TST and IGRA
This study aims to compare the latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) screening strategy of interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA)-alone and in combination with tuberculin skin tests (TSTs) before the initiation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor treatment in patients with inflammatory arthritis....
