All strategies on the pathway to tuberculosis (TB) elimination prioritise, among other measures, addressing tuberculosis infection (TBI), particularly the identification of individuals and population groups who should be candidates for tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT). In Spain, a TBI test is required before recommending TPT. An interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) is preferred over the tuberculin skin test (TST), although the latter may be used in settings where IGRAs are not available or when deemed necessary to increase diagnostic sensitivity. On the other hand, new skin tests employing specific antigens (TBST) may play a key role. As a general principle, screening for TBI should include all individuals at high risk for progressing from TBI to TB, as described in this guideline, prioritising pulmonary TB contacts, people living with HIV, immunocompromised individuals and those in other situations associated with an elevated risk of developing TB. Once TBI has been diagnosed in these high-risk groups, the algorithm set out in this guideline should be applied to rule out TB disease. Once TB has been excluded, TPT should be recommended. The preferred regimen is daily isoniazid (H) plus rifampicin (R) for 3 months (3HR). However, once rifapentine becomes available in Spain, both the 1-month daily (1HP) and the 3-month weekly (3HP) regimens combining H and rifapentine (P) may also be used. Finally, measures must be taken to ensure adherence to TPT and to monitor and manage potential drug-related adverse effects.

Background: Newborn blood spot screening (NBS) for cystic fibrosis (CF) increasingly identifies infants with inconclusive results, classified as CF screen-positive inconclusive diagnosis (CFSPID). However, long-term outcome data remain limited.
Objective: To analyze the clinical and biochemical course of children with CFSPID.
Methods: We conducted a bi-center observational cohort study including all children designated as CFSPID through the Madrid NBS program from July 2009 to June 2024. Follow-up assessments included serial sweat chloride (SC) testing, respiratory and gastrointestinal (GI) evaluations, spirometry from age 5 or older, nasopharyngeal cultures, and fecal elastase measurements.
Results: A total of 100 children were enrolled. After a median follow-up of 3.59 years [IQR, 1.73-5.43], 25% were reclassified as unaffected carriers following CFTR variant reinterpretation. The remaining 75 were categorized into 3 genotype groups: 66 with CF-causing (CFc)/Variant of Varying Clinical Consequence (VVCC), 4 with VVCC/VVCC, and 5 with CFc/Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). By the end of follow-up, 42.67% developed at least 1 intermediate or positive SC value. Three children (4%), all carrying the CFc/VVCC genotype, converted to cystic fibrosis (mean age at conversion, 4.23 years), and 1 child (1.3%) developed a CFTR-related disorder. Clinical signs were mild, with normal spirometry and full pancreatic sufficiency. No Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were detected.
Conclusions: Conversion from CFSPID to CF was rare (4%), but abnormal SC values were frequent (42.67%), supporting the need for structured, long-term monitoring. Continued follow-up in specialized CF centers is essential for early detection of disease progression.
