Figure 1. Schematic overview on subpopulations and available data sources in Germany.

Figure 1

Subpopulations of interest (in italic) include PLWH, mostly placed under ART after HIV diagnosis, as well as TB and HIV/TB patients. Data sources (coloured boxes) include national TB notification data restricted to culture-positive cases, ART prescription data by Insight Health, and the ClinSurv HIV cohort. TB notification and ART prescription data capture patients irrespective of their comorbidity status. ClinSurv HIV is the only source systematically capturing both HIV and TB.
