Candidate serum protein biomarkers for active pulmonary tuberculosis diagnosis in tuberculosis endemic settings

Abstract Background Identification of non-sputum diagnostic markers for tuberculosis (TB) is urgently needed. This exploratory study aimed to discover potential serum protein biomarkers for the diagnosis of active pulmonary TB (PTB). Method We employed Proximity Extension Assay (PEA) to measure leve...
