aRR = adjusted risk ratio; BCG = Bacillus Calmette–Guerin vaccine; COPD = chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; LTBI = latent tuberculosis infection. *aRR are based on Poisson regression.
†
The standard errors of CI are adjusted for cluster effect (courtyard) in the bivariable and multivariable models.
