Only 1,769/1,771 subjects had TB history sufficiently collected on the baseline medically history form.
P-values are unadjusted from the Fisher exact test for binary variables and the two-sample t-statistic with unequal variances for continuous covariates, except viral RNA for which a non-parametric Wilcoxon test was used.
