The usefulness of quantitative interferon-gamma releasing assay response for predicting active tuberculosis in kidney transplant recipients: A quasi-experimental study
Journal of Infection(2020)
摘要
•We evaluated the effectiveness of quantitative IGRA-based INH treatment for TB in KT.•The number needed to treat for IGRA-based INH treatment was 31.•The number needed to treat based positive IGRA titer 2.96 IU/mL was 16.•IGRA-based INH treatment is effective to prevent the TB development in KT recipients.•Quantitative IGRA results before KT are useful to predict the TB development after KT.
