  • Optimization of tuberculosis diagnosis based on artificial intelligence strategy

    Tuberculosis is one of the major infectious diseases that seriously endanger human health. Since 2014, it has surpassed human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome as the first infectious disease in patients with single pathogens. China is the third-largest country in the world in terms of high burden of tuberculosis. In 2016, there were about 900 000 new cases of tuberculosis in China. China is facing a severe tuberculosis epidemic, especially for the early diagnosis of tuberculosis and misdiagnosis of tuberculosis, which leads to delay in treatment and the spread of tuberculosis. With the application of artificial intelligence in the medical field, machine learning and deep learning methods have shown important value in the diagnosis of tuberculosis. This article will explain the application status and future development of machine learning and deep learning in the diagnosis of tuberculosis.

  • Application value of GeneXpert Mycobacterium tuberculosis / rifampin in urine samples for tuberculosis diagnosis

    Objective To investigate the clinical application value of GeneXpert Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB)/ rifampin (RIF) in urine samples for tuberculosis diagnosis. Methods The patients with clinically highly suspected tuberculosis admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University between January 1, 2018 and June 1, 2023 were selected retrospectively. The diagnostic efficacy of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF detection, such as sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value, were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate its clinical value in the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Correlation analysis was further conducted to explore the correlation between positive levels of GeneXpert MTB/RIF in urine samples and laboratory test indicators. Results A total of 400 patients were included. Among them, 163 cases were in the clinical tuberculosis group and 237 cases were in the clinical non tuberculosis group. In the clinical tuberculosis group, 112 cases were urogenital tuberculosis patients and 51 cases were non-urogenital tuberculosis patients. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF in the diagnosis of tuberculosis were 55.2%, 97.5%, 93.8% and 76.0%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF in the diagnosis of urogenital tuberculosis were 65.2%, 92.0%, 76.0% and 87.2%, respectively, and the diagnostic sensitivity was further improved. Correlation analysis showed that the positive degree of urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF was correlated with the levels of hemoglobin, serum total protein, blood serum albumin, and other indicators. Conclusions Urine GeneXpert MTB/RIF detection offers high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of tuberculosis, especially in urogenital tuberculosis, which is helpful for the early and rapid diagnosis of tuberculosis patients.

  • Diagnositic efficacy of clinical characteristics and laboratory indexes in tuberculous pleural effusion and malignant pleural effusion

    ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with tuberculous pleural effusion and malignant pleural effusion and explore the value of laboratory indexes of pleural effusion in the differential diagnosis of tuberculous pleural effusion and malignant pleural effusion.MethodsThe clinical data and laboratory indexes of pleural effusion of patients with tuberculous pleural effusion and patients with malignant pleural effusion hospitalized in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between January and December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. Those examinations with statistical significance were selected to establish a binary logistic regression model for diagnosing malignant pleural effusion from tuberculous pleural effusion. Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to assess the goodness of fit of the logistic model, and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to assess the diagnostic value of the model.ResultsThe average age of the 128 patients with tuberculous pleural effusion was (51.60±21.02) years, and the average age of the 164 malignant pleural effusion was (63.52±11.87) years. Patients with tuberculous pleural effusion were prone to getting symptoms of cough, expectoration, fever, chest pain and tightness in breathing, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The level of adenosine deaminase in patients with tuberculous pleural effusion was (23.06±21.29) U/L, higher than that in malignant pleural effusion; the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The levels of albumin, glucose, carbohydrate antigen (CA) 125, CA19-9, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cyto-keratin 19 fragment antigen 21-1 in patients with malignant pleural effusion were higher than those in patients with tuberculous pleural effusion (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that CA125, CEA and glucose were introduced to model as the main effect. The area under the ROC curve was 0.914 [95% confidence interval (0.864, 0.964)], with an improved diagnostic efficiency.ConclusionsThe clinical manifestations of tuberculous pleural effusion and malignant pleural effusion are multifarious with low specificity. A joint detection of CA125, CEA and glucose in pleural effusion and the joint diagnostic model can identify tuberculous pleural effusion and malignant pleural effusion better.
