Risk Groups of Developing Active Tuberculosis in Liver Transplant Recipients in a Tuberculosis Endemic Area: Risk Stratification by Chest Image and Interferon Gamma Release Assay

Risk Groups of Developing Active Tuberculosis in Liver Transplant Recipients in a Tuberculosis Endemic Area: Risk Stratification by Chest Image and Interferon Gamma Release Assay

Objectives: We implemented a stratified risk analysis to predict the development of active tuberculosis (TB) in liver transplantation (LT) recipients based on IGRA and chest images in a TB-endemic area. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, LT recipients who tested for IGRA between May 2008 a...
