The new blood tests that can know who will suffer from pulmonary tuberculosis
A lot of people carry the tubercle bacillus that can cause pulmonary tuberculosis, but only some people have illness coming on finally. One newest international research say one new blood test technology can find what person who carries germ can ill finally on earth. New first the intersection of Britain and Nature publish, say Britain, U.S.A. and South Africa researcher develop these kind of test technology. It is introduced, about 1/3 of the people in the world all contacted or have been infected with the tubercle bacillus, but only the person of 10 will have illness coming on in the person who carries germ. Researchers find, the onset person's gene has a characteristic on activity. Different from analyzing the genetic atlas, what genes active concern of gene does not exist, but what genes are contributing. Researchers have drawn the blood sample of dozens of persons who carries tubercle bacillus and persons who have already had illness coming on, use above-mentioned the intersection of gene and active characteristic go on than right, infer who have already had illness coming on it. The result reveals, use result and actual conditions that this technology judges to have higher identical degree. Anne and O'Gara of the national medical research institute under Britain medical research council has led this research, she says, who carry the tubercle bacillus although past technology can detect, it is difficult to judge which persons who carry can have illness coming on, this research results will contribute to finding out the high-risk group who will have illness coming on, thus concentrate and treat them, avoid medical resources are dispersible.
