Diagnostic accuracy of interferon-gamma-induced protein 10 for differentiating active tuberculosis from latent tuberculosis: A meta-analysis
Abstract Tuberculin skin test and interferon-gamma release assay are not good at differentiating active tuberculosis from latent tuberculosis. Interferon-gamma-induced protein 10 (IP-10) has been widely used to detect tuberculosis infection. However, its values of discriminating active and latent tu...

| Sumario: | Abstract Tuberculin skin test and interferon-gamma release assay are not good at differentiating active tuberculosis from latent tuberculosis. Interferon-gamma-induced protein 10 (IP-10) has been widely used to detect tuberculosis infection. However, its values of discriminating active and latent tuberculosis is unknown. To estimate the diagnostic potential of IP-10 for differentiating active tuberculosis from latent tuberculosis, we searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM databases. Eleven studies, accounting for 706 participants (853 samples), were included. We used a bivariate diagnostic random-effects model to conduct the primary data. The overall pooled sensitivity, specificity, negative likelihood rate, positive likelihood rate, diagnostic odds ratio and area under the summary receiver operating characteristic curve were 0.72 (95% CI: 0.68–0.76), 0.83 (95% CI: 0.79–0.87), 0.32 (95% CI: 0.22–0.46), 4.63 (95% CI: 2.79–7.69), 17.86 (95% CI: 2.89–38.49) and 0.8638, respectively. This study shows that IP-10 is a potential biomarker for differentiating active tuberculosis from latent tuberculosis. |
