Factors associated with children’s odds of TBI
| Variable | Odds ratio (95% CI) |
|---|---|
| Age 5 years or older. Referent group: younger than 5 years | 1.7 (1.2–2.4)** |
| Known contact with TB. Referent group: no reported TB contact | 3.8 (2.8–5.2) |
| Mother or primary caregiver with known TB. Referent group: no reported TB contact or known TB contact not a primary caregiver or mother | 1.8 (1.2–2.8)** |
| High-burden municipality. Referent group: low-burden municipality (TBI prevalence < 7%) | 2.4 (1.8–3.2)*** |
