Risk factors for types of recurrent tuberculosis (reactivation versus reinfection): A global systematic review and meta-analysis

Beibei Qiu et al.

Summary: This meta-analysis investigates the risk factors associated with reactivation or reinfection of tuberculosis. The study finds that a time span of less than two years is a risk factor for endogenous reactivation, while HIV coinfection, Beijing family genotype, history of imprisonment, and immigration are associated with exogenous reinfection.

Investigation on the cause of recurrent tuberculosis in a rural area in China using whole-genome sequencing: A retrospective cohort study

Meng Li et al.

Summary: This study investigated recurrent tuberculosis (TB) in rural Wusheng County, Sichuan Province, China. Using whole-genome sequencing (WGS), the researchers found that recurrent TB in this area was mainly due to relapse and associated with drug resistance.

Predictors of Discordant Tuberculin Skin Test and QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-tube Results in Eastern China: A Population-based, Cohort Study

Peng Lu et al.

Summary: In this study conducted in a medium tuberculosis burden setting, there was fair agreement between tuberculin skin test (TST) and QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-tube (QFT) overall. Participants with QFT(+) and TST(+)QFT(+) results were more likely to progress to tuberculosis compared to those with TST(-)QFT(-) results.

Recurrent TB: a systematic review and meta-analysis of the incidence rates and the proportions of relapses and reinfections

Victor Vega et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that recurrent tuberculosis has a high incidence rate, with relapse accounting for 70% and reinfection for 30%. Genotyping is an important tool for distinguishing between relapse and reinfection. The incidence rate of recurrent tuberculosis is influenced by various factors such as HIV prevalence, treatment drug regimen, etc.

Distinguishing Relapse From Reinfection With Whole-Genome Sequencing in Recurrent Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Retrospective Cohort Study in Beijing, China

Jian Du et al.

Summary: The study found that tuberculosis recurrence in Beijing was mainly caused by relapse and strongly associated with underlying chronic diseases. Some MTB isolates from non-diabetic patients had a higher mutation rate, and community transmission was identified in the cohort.
