aRace was missing for all OFLOTUB study participants; black race was assigned to all study participants given all OFLOTUB sites were in Africa.

bAge was missing for 5 study participants.

cBMI was defined as the weight in kilograms divided by the squared height in meters. Height was missing for 291 study participants; median height for females and males were used to calculate BMI for those participants.

dHIV status was missing for 9 study participants.

eCD4+ cell count cutoff was variable across trials (described in Supplementary Table 2). CD4+ cell count summary statistics were based only on study participants co-infected with HIV but were missing for 79 HIV co-infected study participants.

fCavitation status was missing for 200 study participants.

gSmear grade was based on clinical trial-defined grading but readjusted so all data were on the same scale. Smear grade was missing for 43 study participants.
