摘要：
Tuberculosis (TB) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality globally, which is caused by a single infectious agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis. For years, many TB control programmes are established for effective diagnosis and treatment of active TB cases, but these approaches alone are insufficient for TB eradication. This review aims to discourse on the crucial management of latent tuberculosis infection. This review will first summarize the current status, and methods for diagnosing latent tuberculosis then describes the challenges involved in the diagnosis and treatment of latent tuberculosis, and finally encounters the purpose of biomarkers as predicting tool in latent tuberculosis.
