Abstract:
Objective To analyze and discuss the clinical value of tuberculosis infection T cell ELISPOT test and tuberculosis antibody test used in bone and joint tuberculosis.Methods The patients with suspected bone and joint TB diagnosed and treated in Xishan people's Hospital of Wuxi City from 2012 to 2014 were selected as the objects of this study.They were taken randomly,which divided into T-SPOT.TB test group and tuberculosis antibody test groups.Each group had 162 per-sons.The patients of T-SPOT.TB test group were tested by tuberculosis infection T cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot test,tuberculosis antibody test group were taken tuberculosis antibody test,comparative analysis of the sensitivity and speci-ficity of two diagnostic methods were contrastively analyzed.Results The sensitivity and specificity of T-SPOT.TB test group were 93.43% and 84.00%.The sensitivity and specificity of tuberculosis antibody in the experimental group were 40.44% and 53.85%.There was statistical difference between two groups (χ2 =184.62,7.86,all P <0.05).The false posi-tive rate and the false negative rate of T-SPOT.TB test group were 16.00% and 6.57%.The false positive rate and the false negative rate of tuberculosis antibodies in the experimental group were 26.92% and 59.56%,respectively.There was statis-tical difference between two groups (χ2 =7.86,156.18,all P <0.05).In addition,the positive and negative predictive values of T-SPOT.TB test group were 96.97% and 70.00%.Positive and negative predictive values of tuberculosis antibody in the experimental group were 88.71% and 14.74%.There was statistical difference between two groups (χ2 = 20.27,73.06,all P <0.01).Conclusion Compared to experimental tuberculosis antibody,TB infection of T cells ELISPOT test had high sen-sitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of bone and joint tuberculosis.It’s worthy of spreading.
