Abbreviation used in table: TB, tuberculosis; ATLI, Anti-tuberculosis Drug Induced Liver Injury; RR, relative risk; AR%: attributable risk proportion.
Intensive treatment phase: the number of patients was 4292, because 12 patients missed data.
Smear result at 2 months: the number of patients was 4259, because 45 patients missed smear examination.
AR%: it is the percent of the incidence of an outcome in the exposed that is due to the exposure.
Unsuccessful outcomes: A sum of treatment failure, died, default and transfer out.
Successful outcomes: A sum of cure and treatment completed.
