亲爱的大家,
我来自缅甸——世界上30个结核病负担最重的国家之一。最近,我打算用Stool Xpert MTB/ RIF测试对疑似肺结核儿童进行研究。我知道有很多关于这方面的论文,我也读过其中一些。
但我想要求任何有经验的Stool Xpert MTB/ RIF测试的人分享测试经验和结果。然后,我想知道它是否真的对儿童结核病的确诊有效。此外,我认为阳性率和敏感性可能不是很高。
>再次感谢。
期待您的经验分享!

在我们的实验室,当我们从MGIT阳性培养物中做涂片时,它们在染色过程中被完全洗掉。我们用隔热板在75度的温度下固定两个小时。但这似乎没有帮助。我们以前也试过纯牛奶,但效果不太好。有什么问题吗?(我们在使用之前要清洗切片,以确保没有油的残留物)。
你们实验室还用什么固定剂?

*TB:这个尿检可以救你的命*
https://bhekisisa.org/article/2019-07-04-this-new-test-will-detect-tb-in-your-pee/如果诊断南非的最致命的疾病是像
药店怀孕测试一样简单?那一天可能比你想象的要近。*
*Keertan Dheda教授*
“白瘟疫”,在南非的金矿上,
肺结核-无论它叫什么名字,这种细菌早在现代科学称之为肺结核之前就已经四处游荡了。
1882年3月24日,科学家罗伯特·科赫发现了引起结核病的病菌,并将其命名为结核分枝杆菌,
,
只有通过科赫发明的新型
染色技术,才有可能使结核病,然后霍乱,在显微镜下活过来。
一个多世纪以来,结核病检测就是这样的:一排排
科学家在全世界的实验室里俯身在显微镜下,
绝望地在泥泞和泥泞中寻找那些微小的棒状物,人们可以把它们作为痰样本的一部分来咳嗽。
然后在2010年,世界卫生组织(WHO)批准了基因专家
<;https://bhekisisa.org/article/2017-05-08-00-is-all-in-one-healthcare-a-dream/>
-
咖啡机大小的机器,可以在两个
小时内提供结核病诊断。到2011年,这种疾病的快速检测领域不断扩大,据世界卫生组织称,仅在这一年,就将影响到800多万人。
,这些
测试都依赖于病人从呼吸道深处产生痰的能力。世卫组织说,南非每年有38000名儿童患上活动性肺结核,对他们中的大多数人来说,这是一项太困难的任务;https://www.who.int/tb/data/GTBreportCountryProfiles.pdf?ua=1>.
根据世卫组织最新报告,许多艾滋病毒携带者约占该国结核病死亡人数的70%
<;https://www.who.int/tb/publications/global_report/en/> — 同时发现
产生的痰具有挑战性。
这种间隙可能是致命的。2015年,一项对30多项研究和
对
全球南部地区感染艾滋病毒的成人和儿童进行的3000多例尸检的回顾发现,结核病导致了10人中的4人死亡。在死于肺结核的患者中,超过40%的人在肺以外的地方患有肺结核,这意味着常规检查可能会漏掉肺结核。
<;https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4568896/><发表在《艾滋病》杂志上的这项研究显示,几乎一半的病人从未被诊断过。
但现在情况有所改变。
世界上第一个真正意义上的定点结核病检测
最近,一种新的低成本检测被开发出来,用于诊断难治性结核病患者,尤其是那些艾滋病晚期患者。它的工作原理与药房妊娠试验基本相同,大约需要25分钟。
这项试验的目的是检测放在吸水纸上的几滴尿液中结核杆菌细胞壁中发现的一种糖结合分子。这种分子被称为脂阿拉伯甘露聚糖,简称Lam。如果TB-Lam测试产生一条红线,它就向医护人员发出信号,告诉他们病人应该开始结核病治疗。
如今,Lam试纸是唯一的c点are test for TB we have.
But what does it mean for patients? Well, a team and I conducted the first
real-world controlled study to find out, putting it to the test among
almost 3 000 HIV-positive patients with TB symptoms in 10 hospitals in four
countries: South Africa, Zambia, Tanzania and Zimbabwe. Half of the
patients were randomly tested for TB by means of standard sputum-based
methods, including the GeneXpert and, yes, even Koch’s old,
microscope-based test as well as the TB Lam test. The other 50% of people
only received standard testing.
People who were tested through the Lam diagnostic were not only more likely
to start treatment, the 2016 study published in the medical journal* The
Lancet* found, they were also less likely to die. The research showed that
when used in hospitalised, HIV-positive patients, the Lam test led to a
roughly 20% decrease in death rates.
<https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Grant_Theron/publication/297720916_Effect_on_mortality_of_point-of-care_urine-based_lipoarabinomannan_testing_to_guide_tuberculosis_treatment_initiation_in_HIV-positive_hospital_inpatients_A_pragmatic_parallel-group_multicountry_open-l/links/59d8e0caa6fdcc2aad0d84ef/Effect-on-mortality-of-point-of-care-urine-based-lipoarabinomannan-testing-to-guide-tuberculosis-treatment-initiation-in-HIV-positive-hospital-inpatients-A-pragmatic-parallel-group-multicountry-op.pdf>
The early results of the trial led the WHO to recommend
<https://www.who.int/tb/publications/use-of-lf-lam-tb-hiv/en/> the test’s
use in people living with advanced HIV and TB symptoms in 2015, although
the body stopped short of greenlighting the test for broader use based on
limited evidence.
Then, in 2018, another study, also published in *The Lancet*, and conducted
among about 3 000 people in Malawi and South Africa, indicated that the
urine dipstick — when combined with GeneXpert testing — could pick up TB in
people with HIV before they’d even begun to experience symptoms of the
airborne disease.
<https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0140673618312674>
But the TB urine test has its limits.
Negative tests don’t necessarily rule out TB so more tests are needed to
confirm a negative diagnosis, and some types of genital fungal infections
will also cause false positive results. It also shouldn’t be used in the
estimated 40% of South Africa’s TB patients who aren’t HIV-positive and
early indications are that it doesn’t work well in children.
And, finally, the TB Lam stick can’t detect whether the kind of TB a person
has is resistant to common drugs used to treat TB. For reasons such as
this, the dipstick will still miss about half of all TB cases in people
living with advanced HIV.
For centuries, the world relied on the naked eye and a microscope to
uncover the bug that is now the leading cause of death in South Africa.
Today, we finally have a test designed for those who need it most, but
diagnosing one out of every two patients correctly is far from perfect. The
good news is that more sensitive versions of the Lam test may soon become
available.
The proverbial holy grail remains a low-cost test that can diagnose TB in
people with or without HIV — and that doesn’t rely on patients to produce
that hard-to-cough-up gunk called sputum. We also need simple tests that
could be given to large numbers of people at a time to rule out TB quickly,
especially in high- risk areas such as informal settlements, where poor
living conditions can drive the spread of the disease.
Day in and day out, our hospitals and clinics are inundated with people who
are at risk of TB or already showing symptoms. We need better, simpler and
faster tests to help to stretch the resources we have further — and to make
sure people do not continue to lose their lives to a treatable disease.

各国对EDL有自己的偏好和偏见。许多经过世卫组织资格预审并被列入国家环境监测和评估的测试未能在国家环境监测和评估中找到位置,原因是主要利益攸关方的意见不同。例如Eiken TB LAMP,尽管已经得到了世卫组织的批准,但印度对它仍有一些保留意见。另一个问题是TB LAMP的FIND协商价格太高,以至于要将其纳入周边实验室的国家计划。世卫组织指导委员会必须解决这些问题,否则世卫组织、FIND和Eiken为此投入了12年的时间和大量资金,这样一种有用的检测甚至无法惠及人口。< span style =" font - family:宋体;font - family:微软雅黑;font - family:微软雅黑

收到。非常有趣的反馈。我认为,在这个阶段,我们都可以说服并协助各国翻译这份文件,以便根据当地情况和条例在每个国家一级甚至在区域一级实施,并通过一些标准化过程,使诊断工具、测试、采购时要使用国内资金。
