- W2078600660 abstract "Evaluations of T-cell assays for diagnosing active Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) infection were recently published in the Journal of Infection by Liao et al., Kim et al. and Clark et al. (December 2009). 1 Liao C.H. Chou C.H. Lai C.C. Huang Y.T. Tan C.K. Hsu H.L. et al. Diagnostic performance of an enzyme-linked immunospot assay for interferon-gamma in extrapulmonary tuberculosis varies between different sites of disease.

Diagnosis of abdominal tuberculosis by T-cell-based assays on peripheral blood and peritoneal fluid mononuclear cells. J Infect. 2009; 59: 409-415 Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (32) Google Scholar These evaluations presented evidence of T-cell assays clinical accuracy, i.e. can the tests detect the presence and absence of active TB infection. Unfortunately, knowledge of T-cell assays clinical accuracy offers only moderate help in deciding if the tests are clinically useful in an individual patient. To better understand clinical usefulness, evaluations should investigate how a patient's management is altered by their use, that is: does the test help you treat the patient quicker, cheaper, or better; does it make no difference or does it lead to harm? At present the debate about T-cell assays for diagnosing active TB infection seems focused on their clinical accuracy. A simple Medline search, based on the term ELISPOT and Tuberculosis, demonstrates this. This search identified seven studies into the clinical accuracy of T-cell assays to diagnose active TB infection. 3 Liebeschuetz S. Bamber S. Ewer K. Deeks J. Pathan A.A. Lalvani A.

This provides preliminary evidence that despite the limitations of the T-cell assays: their clinical sensitivity being reported as low as 70% by Liao et al., their clinical usefulness is worthy of investigation." @default.
