| Id | Subject | Object | Predicate | Lexical cue |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| T1 | 0-163 | Title | denotes | Comparison of laboratory costs of rapid molecular tests and conventional diagnostics for detection of tuberculosis and drug-resistant tuberculosis in South Africa. |
| T6 | 14-24 | Habitat | denotes | laboratory |
| T7 | 119-133 | Phenotype | denotes | drug-resistant |
| T2 | 164-537 | Paragraph | denotes | The World Health Organization has endorsed the use of molecular methods for the detection of TB and drug-resistant TB as a rapid alternative to culture-based systems. In South Africa, the Xpert MTB/Rif assay and the GenoType MTBDRplus have been implemented into reference laboratories for diagnosis of TB and drug-resistance, but their costs have not been fully elucidated. |
| T8 | 264-278 | Phenotype | denotes | drug-resistant |
| T9 | 358-361 | Microorganism | denotes | MTB |
| T10 | 436-448 | Habitat | denotes | laboratories |
| T11 | 473-488 | Phenotype | denotes | drug-resistance |
| T3 | 538-873 | Paragraph | denotes | We conducted a detailed reference laboratory cost analysis of new rapid molecular assays (Xpert and MTBDRplus) for tuberculosis testing and drug-resistance testing in South Africa, and compared with the costs of conventional approaches involving sputum microscopy, liquid mycobacterial culture, and phenotypic drug sensitivity testing. |
| T12 | 572-582 | Habitat | denotes | laboratory |
| T13 | 678-693 | Phenotype | denotes | drug-resistance |
| T14 | 784-790 | Habitat | denotes | sputum |
| T15 | 803-831 | Habitat | denotes | liquid mycobacterial culture |
| T16 | 848-864 | Phenotype | denotes | drug sensitivity |
| T4 | 874-1171 | Paragraph | denotes | From a laboratory perspective, Xpert MTB/RIF cost $14.93/sample and the MTBDRplus line probe assay cost $23.46/sample, compared to $16.88/sample using conventional automated liquid culture-based methods. Laboratory costs of Xpert and MTBDRplus were most influenced by cost of consumables (60-80%). |
| T17 | 881-891 | Habitat | denotes | laboratory |
| T18 | 911-914 | Microorganism | denotes | MTB |
| T19 | 1048-1062 | Habitat | denotes | liquid culture |
| T20 | 1078-1088 | Habitat | denotes | Laboratory |
| T5 | 1172-1440 | Paragraph | denotes | At current public sector pricing, Xpert MTB/RIF and MTBDRplus are comparable in cost to mycobacterial culture and conventional drug sensitivity testing. Overall, reference laboratories must balance costs with performance characteristics and the need for rapid results. |
| T21 | 1212-1215 | Microorganism | denotes | MTB |
| T22 | 1260-1281 | Habitat | denotes | mycobacterial culture |
| T23 | 1299-1315 | Phenotype | denotes | drug sensitivity |
| T24 | 1344-1356 | Habitat | denotes | laboratories |
