The diagnostic performance of novel skin-based in-vivo tests for tuberculosis nfection compared with purified protein derivative tuberculin skin tests and blood-based in vitro interferon-γ release assays: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Maria Krutikov et al.

Summary: This study systematically assessed the diagnostic performance of novel skin-based tests for tuberculosis infection compared to the TST and IGRA tests. The results showed that the novel skin-based tests performed similarly to IGRA or TST, but there were variations in study quality.

Infant BCG vaccination and risk of pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis throughout the life course: a systematic review and individual participant data meta-analysis

Leonardo Martinez et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the age-specific impact of infant BCG vaccination on tuberculosis development and mortality. Through a systematic review and meta-analysis, the effectiveness of BCG vaccination was found to be significant in preventing tuberculosis in children younger than 5 years, but ineffective in adolescents and adults.

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.

Incidence and prevalence of tuberculosis in incarcerated populations: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Olivia Cords et al.

Summary: Prisons are high-risk environments for tuberculosis, with significant disparities in the incidence and prevalence of tuberculosis in incarcerated populations across regions. People in prison are at elevated risk of contracting Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection and developing tuberculosis compared to the general population.
