Abstract

The PaxView TB/NTM MPCR-ULFA Kit, which targets the IS6110 and mtp40 genes for Mycobacteriumtuberculosis (MTB) detection, is a novel tool that substitutes gel electrophoresis for universal lateral flowassays. The sensitivity and specificity of this method were compared with those of established methodologiesusing Indonesian clinical isolates. In this study, 317 sputum specimens isolated from tuberculosis (TB)suspects were examined to evaluate the performance of the PaxView TB/NTM MPCR-ULFA Kit comparedto that of smear microscopy and the Xpert MTB/RIF assay. Out of 317 cases, the rate of TB-positivesamples evaluated by different methods was 33.4% (106/317; 95% CI 28.2-38.6) for smear microscopy,37.9% (120/317; 95% CI 32.5-43.2) for the Xpert MTB/RIF, and 40.7% (129/317; 95% CI 35.3-46.1) forthe PaxView TB/NTM MPCR-ULFA Kit. Compared to the Xpert MTB/RIF as a standard reference, thePaxView TB/NTM MPCR-ULFA Kit was found to possess a 92.5% sensitivity (111/120; 95% CI 87.8-97.2), a 90.8% specificity (179/197; 95% CI 86.8-94.8), 86.0% PPV (111/129; 95% CI 80.0-92.0), anda NPV 95.2% (179/188; 95% CI 92.2-98.3). The PaxView TB/NTM MPCR-ULFA Kit could be a usefulmolecular diagnostic tool to identify MTB in clinical samples in resource-limited countries, as this procedureis more cost-effective and sensitive than the Xpert MTB/RIF, and more convenient than conventional PCRgel electrophoresis approaches.

Abstract

Introduction: Transplantation of organs in humans is one of the fastest-growing alternative treatments. Theuse of donors from non-family members is one of the considerations. Is a notarized agreement between theorgan giver and the organ recipient necessary so that problems do not occur in the future?Objective: This study’s objective was to analyze the principle precautionary in a notarized deed agreementbetween the donor and recipient transplant.Method Research: This research method uses a normative and empirical juridical approach with descriptiveanalytical and normative research specifications.Conclusion: This study found that the alleged buying and selling of kidneys leaves underhand agreements’ongoing problem. The paradigm that applies in the work of notaries is the principle of prudence in doingnotarial deeds. Prudence comes from the word prudence, which is analogically closely related to thesupervisory function management as it applies to banking. A notary caution is required to draft a transplantnotary agreement between donors and recipients so that disputes do not occur in the future.
