Rapid Antigen Detection Test for Diagnosis of Post-kala-azar Dermal Leishmaniasis: Application of CL Detect Rapid Test for Active Case Detection in the Endemic Area.
Post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) is a skin condition that occurs in a small percentage of people who have been cured of visceral leishmaniasis (VL), and it contributes to transmission of VL. The rK39 rapid test cannot decisively diagnose PKDL due to the presence of antileishmanial antibodies from past VL episodes. The CL Detect Rapid Test, an in vitro diagnostic test that detects Leishmania antigen peroxidoxin, was assessed for diagnosing PKDL. The CL Detect Rapid Test had 73.3% sensitivity and 100% specificity in the study. The test can be used as a primary screening tool to monitor PKDL in endemic regions and identify active Leishmania infection.
期刊介绍:
Published continuously since 1904, The Journal of Infectious Diseases (JID) is the premier global journal for original research on infectious diseases. The editors welcome Major Articles and Brief Reports describing research results on microbiology, immunology, epidemiology, and related disciplines, on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases; on the microbes that cause them; and on disorders of host immune responses. JID is an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America.
