Diagnostic Accuracy of a Novel and Rapid Lipoarabinomannan Test for Diagnosing Tuberculosis Among People With Human Immunodeficiency Virus

Abstract

FujiLAM offers significantly increased diagnostic sensitivity in comparison to AlereLAM. Specificity estimates for FujiLAM were lower than for AlereLAM but were affected by the limited ability of the reference standard to correctly diagnose tuberculosis in individuals with low CD4 counts.
