Background and objective: The diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy by analysis of pleural fluid using standard diagnostic tools is difficult. Recently, T‐cell interferon‐γ release assays (IGRA) have been introduced for the diagnosis of tuberculous pleurisy. The aim of the present meta‐analysis was to establish the overall diagnostic accuracy of IGRA on both pleural fluid and peripheral blood, for diagnosing...
Background and Objective: CD4+CD25high regulatory T cells are increased in tuberculous pleural effusions (TPE). However, the mechanism by which CD4+CD25high T cells infiltrate into the pleural cavity is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the chemokines CCL22 and CCL17 are present in TPE, and the chemoattractant activity of these chemokines for infiltration of CD4+CD25high T...
