Recent progress in tuberculosis diagnosis: insights into blood-based biomarkers and emerging technologies.
Review in Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health challenge, with timely and accurate diagnosis being critical for effective disease management and control. Recent advancements in the field of TB diagnostics have focused on the identification and utilization of blood-based biomarkers, offering a non-invasive, rapid, and scalable approach to disease detection. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the latest progress in blood-based biomarkers for TB, highlighting their potential to revolutionize diagnostic strategies. Furthermore, we explore emerging technologies such as NGS, PET-CT, Xpert and line probe assays, which have enhanced the sensitivity, specificity, and accessibility of biomarker-based diagnostics. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in biomarker analysis is also examined, showcasing its potential to improve diagnostic accuracy and predictive capabilities. This review underscores the need for multidisciplinary collaboration and continued innovation to translate these promising technologies into practical, point-of-care solutions. By addressing these challenges, blood-based biomarkers and emerging technologies hold the potential to significantly improve TB diagnosis, ultimately contributing to global efforts to eradicate this devastating disease.
