	Correlation coefficient	rpartial	t	p
Age	0.176	0.015	0.838	0.402
WBC total	0.498	0.042	2.221	0.026
Neutrophil count	0.608	0.098	5.201	<0.0001
Lymphocyte count	-0.288	-0.221	-11.924	<0.0001
Mitogen response a)	-0.322	-0.164	-8.749	<0.0001
Nil response a)	-0.023	-0.004	-0.227	0.82

^a) Mitogen and nil response were calculated from QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube assay.
