BackgroundReliable detection of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection (LTBI) remains challenging, particularly in TB contacts and immunocompromised individuals, where interferon-{gamma} release assays (IGRAs) demonstrate variable sensitivity. IP-10, a chemokine produced at substantially higher concentrations than IFN-{gamma}, represents a promising immune marker. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of two IP-10 based assays RIDA(R)QUICK TB (lateral flow) and RIDA...
