Combining urine lipoarabinomannan with antibody detection as a simple non-sputum-based screening method for HIV-associated tuberculosis.
<h4>Background</h4>Simple methods for the accurate triaging and screening of HIV-associated tuberculosis (TB) are urgently needed. We hypothesized that combining serum antibody with urine lipoarabinomannan (U-LAM) detection can improve the detection of HIV-associated TB.<h4>Methods...
