Association of clinical and behavioral factors with tuberculosis infection
We performed a chi-square test to assess the association of demographic, behavioral, and clinical factors with tuberculosis infection. Among all the variables assessed in the current study, statistically, significant differences were observed among cases and controls based on previous TB history (P<0.001 ), baseline functional status (P=0.010 ), baseline WHO clinical stage (P=0.001 ), baseline Hgb value (P=0.008 ), baseline BMI (P=0.049 ), IPT intake (P=0.005 ), baseline CD4 value (P<0.001 ) and duration of taking ART (P<0.001 ) (Table 2)
