Table 1: Parameters identified as significant from sensitivity analysis.
For each analysis, parameters shown here have a PRCC absolute value of ρ > 0.1 and p-value<0.05. Parameters listed as associated with clinical outcomes are the result of our ‘all-in-one’ sensitivity analysis. Clinical-scale classifications were assigned a value of 0 (active TB case), 1 (LTBI) or 2 (TB eliminator) to calculate the PRCC value for each parameter. Parameters listed as associated with granuloma CFU were the result of our intra-compartment analysis. These parameters were significantly correlated with granuloma CFU at day 200. PRCC values are listed in Supplementary Material.
