| dc.description.abstract | Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) remains a significant global public health
concern. Approximately one-quarter of the world's population is estimated to be
infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with most individuals harboring the
bacteria in a latent state. Although these individuals do not exhibit symptoms and
are not contagious, they remain at risk of developing active tuberculosis (TB)
disease during their lifetime. Early diagnosis of LTBI is essential for preventing
disease progression and reducing TB transmission. This article reviews the
epidemiology, risk factors, diagnostic methods, advantages and limitations of
available tests, and current recommendations for diagnosing latent tuberculosis
infection in adults | en_US |
