Abstract : Abstract: The aim of this study was to identify the optimal cut-off value of T cell enzyme-linked immunospot assay for tuberculosis (T-SPOT.TB) and evaluate its diagnostic performance alone (in the peripheral blood) or in combination with the adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity test (in peripheral blood and the pleural fluid) in patients with tuberculous pleurisy. Adult patients presenting with pleural effusion were included in this prospective cohort study. Tuberculous pleurisy was diagnosed by T-SPOT.TB in peripheral blood and a combination of T-SPOT.TB and ADA activity test in pleural fluid and peripheral blood. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve in combination with multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the assays. Among a total of 189 patients with suspected tuberculous pleurisy who were prospectively enrolled in this study, 177 patients were validated for inclusion in the final analysis. ROC analysis revealed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for T-SPOT.TB in pleural fluid and peripheral blood was 0.918 and 0.881, respectively, and for the ADA activity test in pleural fluid was 0.944. In addition, 95.5 spot-forming cells (SFCs)/2.5 × 10 5 cells were determined as the optimal cut-off value for T-SPOT.TB in pleural fluid. Parallel combination of T-SPOT.TB and ADA activity test in pleural fluid showed increased sensitivity (96.9%) and specificity (87.5%), whereas serial combination showed increased specificity (97.5%). The combination of 3 assays had the highest sensitivity at 97.9%, with an AUC value of 0.964. T-SPOT.TB in pleural fluid performed better than that in peripheral blood and the ADA activity test in pleural fluid for tuberculous pleurisy diagnosis. The optimal cut-off value of T-SPOT.TB in pleural fluid was 95.5 SFCs/2.5 × 10 5 cells. Combination of 3 assays might be a promising approach for tuberculous pleurisy diagnosis.

Excerpt from Tuberculous Pleurisy Many members of your ancient and honorable body (bowditch, Wyman, Ellis, Garland, Sears and others) have dealt with many problems in connection with pleurisy; and without making invidious comparisons it may be said that their contributions, more particularly those of the late Henry I. Bowditch, are the most important which have been made on the subject in this country. While modesty made me hesitate to select any question relating to pleurisy as the topic for the Shattuck Lecture of this Society, I felt that differences of opinion on many points - not the least on those concerning the frequency, varieties, and sequences of the form known as tuberculous - would, justify the narra tion of an experience gleaned during the first four years of service in the medical wards of the Johns Hopkins Hospital.

In Myanmar, tuberculosis is one of the major public health problems and recent estimates suggest that 1.66% of Myanmar population become infected with tuberculosis every year. The common causes of pleural effusion in Myanmar are tuberculosis and bronchogenic carcinoma. Evaluation of exudative pleural effusion includes studies of pleural fluid and blind needle biopsy of pleura using Abram's pleural biopsy needle or Cope's biopsy needle. However following these procedures some patients are still undiagnosed. Correcting this diagnostic deficiency the author's main interest is pleural fluid Adenosine deaminase to search for tuberculosis in pleural space. Within the study period, 187 patients with various causes of pleural effusion admitted to the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Yangon General Hospital, Myanmar were studied. In this study, the author found out pleural fluid Adenosine deaminase assay is highly sensitive and specific test suitable for rapid diagnosis of tuberculous pleural effusion.
