Research Abstract |
Tuberculosis is deadly infectious diseases found worldwide and remains a leading public health problem. The majority of TB cases arise from latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (LTBI). However the risk of LTBI and development of TB from infection is largely unknown. We conducted comprehensive health survey in TB endemic area, Kenya Africa. In this study, 627 children from schools situated in two different sites, Mbita and Kwale districts, Kenya were enrolled. And we conducted comprehensive survey including biochemical analysis of blood and detection of infections of parasitic and bacterial pathogens. We found latent antigens M. tuberculosis is a candidates for more sensitive diagnosis of LTBI and hookworm infection is a risk of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection besides active tuberculosis.
