initial diagnostic test Explanation: * -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 мин (2020-09-15 12:53:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- E.g., World Health Organization Rapid Communication: Molecular assays as initial tests for the diagnosis of tuberculosis and rifampicin resistance January 2020 This Rapid Communication aims to inform national TB programmes and other stakeholders about the key implications of the latest evidence on the use of specific molecular assays as initial diagnostic tests of pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB and RR-TB, in adults and children. Intervention: Xpert MTB/RIF or Xpert Ultra as initial diagnostic test for TB in children (bacteriological culture as reference standard) Data assessed for Xpert MTB/RIF: 43 studies involving more than 6,000 participants from 21 countries (including 14 high-burden countries. Studies evaluated sputum specimens, gastric specimens, nasopharyngeal specimen; and stool specimens). Results: Sensitivity varied by specimen type (46% for nasopharyngeal specimens; 61% for stool; 65% for sputum; and 73% for gastric specimens). Specificity for all specimens varied from 98% to 100%. Data assessed for Xpert Ultra: Three studies involving close to 700 participants in three high-burden TB countries. These studies all evaluated sputum specimens while one study also evaluated nasopharyngeal specimens. Results: Sensitivity varied by specimen type (46% for nasopharyngeal specimens; 73% for sputum). Specificity for all specimens varied from 97% to 98%. https://www.google.ru/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 мин (2020-09-15 12:57:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- - Consultation: Non-inferiority analysis of Xpert MTB/RIF.
