Association of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection test results with risk factors for tuberculosis transmission

Association of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection test results with risk factors for tuberculosis transmission

Background: Close contacts infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis are at high risk of tuberculosis (TB) disease and a priority for preventive treatment. Three tests measure infection: two interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs) and the tuberculin skin test (TST). The objective of our study was to...
