Developing a score to predict tuberculosis
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study aims to create a tool that helps doctors predict tuberculosis by looking at patient data. It may help diagnose the disease earlier and more accurately.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are currently hospitalized or were hospitalized during the study period.
- You had a test for tuberculosis on a sample of your lung mucus (like sputum or fluid from your lungs) at the hospital.

This study aims to better understand how the immune system responds to tuberculosis (TB) and improve tools for diagnosing and managing the disease. It may help people with active TB, their close contacts, people with certain other lung diseases, or healthy individuals.
This trial helps doctors organize and “stage” tuberculosis (TB) using a structured approach. It may improve how care decisions are made by using confirmed TB information and donated samples/data.
This study tests new, faster ways to diagnose tuberculosis (TB) using samples like sputum (mucus from your lungs), tongue swabs, and urine. It aims to see if these new tests can find TB more accurately than current methods, which could help you get the right treatment sooner.
This study tests rapid TB screening and lab-style diagnostic methods to see how well they find TB disease and TB that is resistant to rifampin (a key TB drug). It may help doctors diagnose TB faster and more accurately, especially in people at higher risk.
This study looks at immune system blood tests in adults being treated for active tuberculosis and/or latent tuberculosis infection. The goal is to see if these “immune biomarkers” can help guide or improve tuberculosis management.
This study tests new tools that can check for tuberculosis (TB) more quickly at or near where care happens. It includes people with cough or TB risk factors, and also the health workers who perform TB testing, to see how well the tests work and how easy they are to use.
