Embedded within routine campus health services across 26 educational institutions (secondary vocational schools, colleges, and universities) in Meishan City, Sichuan Province, China, the protocol operationalizes proactive case-finding and preventive intervention at student entry.\n\nScreening cascade and baseline stratification Under mandatory institutional biosecurity regulations, all newly enrolled freshmen underwent entry health evaluations comprising tuberculin skin testing (TST with 5 TU PPD-RT23), active symptom screening, and digital chest radiography (CXR). To maximize population coverage (\\>99%) and minimize non-response bias, a 2-week catch-up window was instituted for students initially absent. To account for widespread neonatal BCG vaccination, baseline infection risk was operationalized using TST induration thresholds.\n\nControl cohort: Students with TST indurations \\\u003C15 mm (subdivided into TST \\\u003C5 mm, 5-9 mm, and 10-14 mm).\n\nTarget Cohort: Students with strong TST reactivity (≥15 mm or local severe reactions such as blisters\u002Fnecrosis) in whom active TB was clinically excluded.\n\nIntervention workflows and adherence monitoring Within the target cohort, TPT initiation was managed through shared decision-making. Eligible participants voluntarily initiated one of two WHO-recommended 3-month short-course regimens: Daily fixed-dose combination isoniazid\u002Frifampicin (3HR). Twice-weekly isoniazid plus rifapentine (3H2P2). Treatment administration was embedded within campus health clinics using a hybrid directly observed therapy model combining in-person clinic DOT with smartphone-based video DOT (vDOT). Participants receiving medical observation alone without medication served as the No-TPT comparison group. Adverse events were routinely graded per CTCAE v5.0, with regular safety monitoring to capture potential hepatotoxicity.\n\nCausal inference and emulation framework To complement primary multivariate Cox proportional hazards modeling and address observational confounding inherent in non-randomized treatment assignment, the analytic workflow incorporated a Target Trial Emulation (TTE) framework as sensitivity analyses. Time zero (T0) was anchored to the date of LTBI eligibility confirmation, incorporating a 14-day grace period to align baseline entry and eliminate immortal time bias. High-dimensional baseline covariates, including demographic factors, BMI, school type, medical major, BCG status, prior TB history, and close contact history, were balanced using 1:1 Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and Inverse Probability of Treatment Weighting (IPTW with stabilized weights) to estimate the Average Treatment Effect on the Treated (ATT) across both modified intention-to-treat (mITT) and per-protocol (PP) populations.",[22,28],{"label":23,"type":24,"description":25,"interventionNames":26},"TPT Group","ACTIVE_COMPARATOR","Initiation of a short-course TPT regimen (3HR or 3H2P2) within a 14-day grace period following being defined as the date of LTBI diagnosis\u002Feligibility confirmation by school health services.",[27],"Drug: tuberculosis preventive treatment",{"label":29,"type":30,"description":31,"interventionNames":13},"No-TPT Group","NO_INTERVENTION","Non-initiation of TPT, receiving standard observation and symptom monitoring through school health services.",[33],{"type":34,"name":35,"description":36,"armGroupLabels":37,"otherNames":13},"DRUG","tuberculosis preventive treatment","3HR Regimen: Isoniazid (INH) + Rifampin (RIF), once daily, 90 total doses (3 months); 3H2P2 Regimen: Isoniazid (INH) + Rifapentine (RPT), twice weekly, 24 total doses (3 months)",[23],[39,44],{"name":40,"role":41,"phone":42,"phoneExt":13,"email":43},"Gang Qin, MD, PhD","CONTACT","086-189-1228-8106","tonygqin@ntu.edu.cn",{"name":45,"role":41,"phone":46,"phoneExt":13,"email":47},"Yu Zhang, MBBS","086-151-8331-6420","zhangyu_mscdc@163.com",[49,67],{"facility":5,"status":50,"city":51,"state":52,"zip":53,"country":54,"countryCode":55,"cosmosGeoPoint":56,"geoPoint":61,"contacts":62},"RECRUITING","Nantong","Jiangsu","226001","China","CN",{"type":57,"coordinates":58},"Point",[59,60],120.87472,32.03028,{"lat":60,"lon":59},[63],{"name":64,"role":41,"phone":65,"phoneExt":13,"email":66},"Xian Zhang, MD, PhD","086-513-5231-2490","zhangxian8412@163.com",{"facility":68,"status":50,"city":69,"state":70,"zip":71,"country":54,"countryCode":55,"cosmosGeoPoint":72,"geoPoint":76,"contacts":77},"Meishan Municipal Center for Disease Prevention and Control","Meishan","Sichuan","620010",{"type":57,"coordinates":73},[74,75],103.83696,30.04392,{"lat":75,"lon":74},[78],{"name":45,"role":41,"phone":79,"phoneExt":13,"email":47},"086-028-3819-7429",{"type":81,"investigatorFullName":40,"investigatorTitle":82,"investigatorAffiliation":5,"oldNameTitle":13,"oldOrganization":13},"PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR","Associate Professor",[84],{"name":68,"class":85},"UNKNOWN","100655359","phase-4-latent-infection-freshmen-tracking-for-tuberculosis-100655359",false,"NCT07811518","Latent Infection Freshmen Tracking for Tuberculosis","Real-World Implementation and Effectiveness of Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment in School Health Services in China","LIFT-TB","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Matriculating freshmen aged 14-24 years enrolled across 26 participating educational institutions\n* Completion of baseline tuberculosis screening, including systematic symptom screening, digital chest radiography, and tuberculin skin test (TST)\n* Target cohort requirement: TST strong reactivity (induration ≥15 mm or severe local reactions such as blisters, necrosis, or lymphangitis) with active TB ruled out at baseline\n* Control cohort requirement: TST induration \\\u003C15 mm (including negative \\\u003C5 mm, weakly positive 5-9 mm, and moderately positive 10-14 mm)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Presence of active TB at baseline screening\n* Voluntary receipt of Vaccae vaccination (for the target cohort)",true,"ALL","14 Years","24 Years",{"count":99,"type":100},3000,"ESTIMATED","INTERVENTIONAL",[103],"PHASE4","The goal of this study is to learn whether taking short-course preventive treatment in high school and college freshmen with strong positive tuberculosis (TB) skin tests can safely and effectively protect them from developing active TB over a 3-to-4-years period.\n\nMain question: Does taking short-course preventive treatment reduce the risk of active TB in freshmen who have strong positive TB skin tests?\n\nAll freshmen across 26 schools in Meishan City, Sichuan Province, China were screened for TB.
