Background. Several studies have assessed the diagnostic accuracy of pleural fluid soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) for tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) but with varied results. Therefore, we conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the accuracy of sIL-2R for TPE. Methods. PubMed, Ovid, and Web of Science databases were searched from inception to 23 March 2021 to identify eligible studies concerning the diagnostic accuracy of fluid sIL-2R for TPE. The sensitivity and specificity of sIL-2R for TPE were pooled with a bivariate model. We estimated the global diagnostic accuracy of PE sIL-2R with a summary receiver operating characteristic (sROC) curve. The revised Quality Assessment for Diagnostic Accuracy Studies tool (QUADAS-2) was used to assess the quality of eligible studies. Results. A total of nine studies with 270 TPEs and 586 non-TPEs were included in the final analysis. The pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.81 (95% CI: 0.76–0.86) and 0.92 (95% CI: 0.77–0.98), respectively. The area under the sROC curve (AUC) was 0.82 (95% CI: 0.79–0.86). No significant publication bias was observed. Conclusions. Pleural fluid sIL-2R is a useful diagnostic marker for TPE. However, the diagnostic accuracies of already available biomarkers such as pleural fluid adenosine deaminase, interferon-γ, and interleukin-27 appear to be superior relative to sIL-2R. Therefore, it might not be preferable to use sIL-2R for diagnosing TPE. |
