ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of T-SPOT.TB in the diagnosis of tuberculous pleu-risy. Methods A total of 180 cases of hospitalized patients with pleural effusion ( hospitalized between January 2013 to January 2015)were enrolled. Efficiency of T-SPOT.TB in the diagnosis of tuberculosis was evaluated and the effects of immune state on the number of spot forming cells were analyzed. Results The sensitivity and speci-ficity of the T-SPOT.TB in diagnosis of tuberculous pleural effusion were 82.24%(88/107)and 72.60%(53/73). The sensitivity and specificity of the T-SPOT.TB in immunocompromised patients were72.73%(40/55) and 52.63%(20/38).The sensitivity and specificity of the T-SPOT.TB in non-immunocompromised were 92.31%(48/52) and 94.29%(33/35).The sensitivity and specificity of those in non-immunocompromised were significantly higher than those in immunocompromised. ESAT-6 and CFP-10 specific SFCs of immunocompromised patients de-creased significantly compared with non-immunocompromised(Z is -26.817 and-43.756,P<0.05 ). Conclusion T-SPOT.TB has high sensitivity ,specificity in the diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy.T-SPOT.TB and is a promising clinical test in the diagnosis of non-immunocompromised with suspected TB ,but its diagnostic performance in im-munocompromised patients is reduced compared with in non-immunocompromised patients.
