Abstract

The assessment of tuberculosis (TB) treatment outcomes predominantly relies on sputum culture conversion status. To enhance treatment management, it is crucial to identify non-sputum-based biomarkers that can predict unfavorable outcomes. Cytokines are widely studied as diagnostic biomarkers for active TB. However, their potential as indicators for unfavorable treatment outcomes remains uncertain
