초록

In hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients, the incidence of tuberculosis in positive interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) without isoniazid prophylaxis (3.58/100 person-years) was higher than in negative or indeterminate IGRA (1.15/100 person-years; P = .01) and in positive IGRA with isoniazid prophylaxis (0/100 person-years; P = .09). The number needed to treat was 22 (95% confidence interval, 12-99) with positive IGRA results.
