Few studies have directly compared the performance of rapid molecular diagnostic tests for tuberculosis (TB). We found that the commercially available molecular diagnostic tests Xpert(®) MTB/RIF and GenoType(®) MTBDRplus both provided timely and accurate results compared to conventional phenotypic tests in detecting TB and rifampicin resistance.
很少有研究直接比较过结核病(TB)快速分子诊断检测的性能。我们发现,与传统表型检测相比,市售的分子诊断检测Xpert(®) MTB/RIF和GenoType(®) MTBDRplus在检测结核病和利福平耐药性方面均能提供及时且准确的结果。
