Comparison of Two Molecular Methods for Rapid Diagnosis of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis
Open accessAbstract
Application of real-time PCR for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis enables results to be obtained in about 2 h. A total of 340 nonrespiratory samples were processed using two real-time PCR assay kits: Xpert MTB/RIF and Cobas TaqMan MTB. The sensitivity and specificity of the Xpert assay were 95% and 100%, respectively, compared to 78% and 98% for the Cobas assay.

Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“13 studies (839 samples; 10 with .10samples, 159 culture positive) evaluated Xpert in CSF against culture [14-16, 19, 20, 22-25, 27-29, 31].”
From Xpert MTB/RIF assay for the diagnosis of extrapulmonary tuberculosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2014) · cites this paper as [16]
The check wasn’t confident either way, so it gives no verdict — never disputed.
In the citing paper
“FNA is increasingly being used worldwide as a first diagnostic step because of its ease and safety profile, although sensitivity is very variable depending on the study, with positive mycobacterial culture ranging from 10% to 80%.3,4,13–16”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
