Potential Utility of C-reactive Protein for Tuberculosis Risk Stratification among Patients with Non-Meningitic Symptoms at HIV Diagnosis in Low- and Middle-Income Countries

2023-12-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Article Summary</h4> We assessed the association between C-reactive protein (CRP) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis in symptomatic patients at HIV diagnosis. We found that CRP concentrations can improve tuberculosis risk stratification, facilitating decision making about whether (specific) tuberculosis testing is indicated before antiretroviral therapy initiation. <h4>Background</...
