Evaluation of Trichinella spiralis larva group 1 antigens for serodiagnosis of human trichinellosis.

abstract：:Invasive collection methods are often required to obtain samples for the microbiological evaluation of children with presumptive pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). Nucleic acid amplification testing of easier-to-collect stool samples could be a noninvasive method of diagnosing PTB. We conducted a systematic review and meta...
