Mycobacterial heparin-binding hemagglutinin (HBHA)-induced interferon-γ release assay (IGRA) for discrimination of latent and active tuberculosis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
<h4>Background</h4>The Mycobacterial heparin-binding hemagglutinin (HBHA) is an important latency-associated antigen that can be used to distinguish between latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and active tuberculosis (ATB). Although many studies were explored the efficiency of the HBHA-...
