A systematic review of potential screening biomarkers for active TB disease
Introduction: The standard TB Four Symptom Screen does not meet the World Health Organization (WHO) ideal screening criteria for having greater than 90% sensitivity to identify active TB disease, regardless of HIV status. To identify novel screening biomarkers for active TB, we performed a systemati...

To identify novel screening biomarkers for active TB, we performed a systematic review of any cohort or case-control study reporting associations between screening biomarkers and active TB disease. Methods: We searched PubMed and Embase for articles published before October 10, 2021. We included studies from high or medium tuberculosis burden countries. We excluded articles focusing on C-reactive protein and lipoarabinomannan. For all included biomarkers, we calculated sensitivity, specificity and 95% confidence intervals, and assessed study quality using a tool adapted from the QUADAS-2 risk of bias. Results: From 8,062 abstracts screened, we included 79 articles.
