Evaluation of IGRA, Symptoms and Chest Radiograph for Subclinical TB Detection in ESRD and KT

Patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are at risk of developing tuberculosis and are often delayed in diagnosis. Herein, investigators aim to assess the proportion of positive IGRA associated with symptom development, sputum Xpert MTB/RIF assay, and chest radiograph to define latent TB infection and subclinical TB among ESKD and renal transplant patients.
