Background: This study aimed to develop a method for assessing the sensitivity and
diagnostic performance of the neutrophil surface CD64 stimulation index (SI) in tuberculosis …

This study explored the value of neutrophil differentiation antigen CD64 (nCD64) as a new
biomarker for auxiliary diagnosis of tuberculosis. Patients with tuberculosis and non …

Background The interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) release assay (IGRA) is widely used to diagnose
tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). However, indeterminate …

SETTING: QuantiFERON TB assay (QFT) is used to screen tuberculosis (TB) infection, but it
cannot distinguish active TB from latent TB infection (LTBI). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the …

To evaluate the clinical utility of neutrophil (n) CD64 index to diagnose pulmonary
tuberculosis (PTB) and extrapulmonary TB (ePTB) and to predict the outcome of …

The expression of the CD69 antigen on CD4 T lymphocytes after in vitro stimulation with
purified protein derivative (2 tuberculin units) was used to evaluate the tuberculin reactivities …

BACKGROUND CD64 (FcγR1) is a high-affinity receptor for monomeric IgG1 and IgG3.
Circulating neutrophils express very low amounts of CD64 on their surface. OBJECTIVES …

Background: Traditional bacteriological tests are time-consuming and of low sensitivity for
the diagnosis of active tuberculosis (ATB). The purpose of this study is to investigate the …

Background: There is still not reliable tests to distinguish active tuberculosis (TB) from latent
TB infection (LTBI) by an immune diagnostic test. QuantiFERON TB Gold (QFT) is used for …

Background There is a global focus on illness diagnosis in smear-negative and latent
tuberculosis infectious populations (SN-TB and LTBI). CD27 has been suggested to play a …
