Unique Reciprocal Association Seen Between Latent Tuberculosis Infection and Diabetes Is Due to Immunoendocrine Modulation (DM-LTB-1)
AimThe prevalence of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) among diabetes patients is poorly studied. In the present study, the prevalence of LTBI among pre-diabetes and diabetes patients was studied, along with immunoendocrine biomarkers (n = 804).MethodsLTBI was screened by Quantiferon TB gold in N...
