Machine Learning Approach in Dosage Individualization of Isoniazid for Tuberculosis.

INTRODUCTION: Isoniazid is a first-line antituberculosis agent with high variability, which would profit from individualized dosing. Concentrations of isoniazid at 2 h (C), as an indicator of safety and efficacy, are important for optimizing therapy.

Plasma immune profiling combined with machine learning contributes to diagnosis and prognosis of active pulmonary tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the deadliest chronic infectious diseases globally. Early diagnosis not only prevents the spread of TB but also ensures effective treatment. However, the absence of non-sputum-based diagnostic tests often leads to delayed TB diagnoses. Inflammation is a hallmark of TB, we aimed to identify biomarkers associated with TB based on immune profiling. We collected 222 pl...
