Resumen en español Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB). Rapid molecular testing (TCM) can detect MTB and simultaneously perform drug sensitization testing by identifying genetic material that represents resistance. One of the immune responses to TB is inflammation. Leukocytes, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) have become potential inflammatory markers to determine the presence of chronic inflammation that plays a role in the physiological immune response of TB infection.
