摘要: We investigated the prevalence and predictors of positive tuberculin skin test (TST) results among prospective Vietnamese migrants. interviewed medically screened 1395 people aged over 15 years who had applied to migrate Australia. Approximately 44% applicants an induration 10 mm or more, 18.6% more. A at 5 mm, cut-points was significantly associated with age (OR 1.01-1.02 per year) duration smoking 1.03-1.12 year). Smoking appears be important factor increased susceptibility mycobacterial infection. It is not yet clear whether reactivity reflects risk tuberculosis these
