Development of diagnostic algorithm using machine learning for distinguishing between active tuberculosis and latent tuberculosis infection | BMC Infectious Diseases
The discrimination between active tuberculosis (ATB) and latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) remains challenging. The present study aims to investigate the value of diagnostic models established by machine learning based on multiple laboratory data for distinguishing Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection status. T-SPOT, lymphocyte characteristic detection, and routine laboratory tests were performed on participants. Diagnostic models were built according to various algorithms. A total of 8...
