CD4 and tuberculosis: On the other hand, overweight (aHR = 0.7, 95% CI; 0.6–0.8), obese patients (aHR = 0.5, 95% CI; 0.4–0.7), patients with baseline CD4 count between 200 and 350 cells/μl (aHR = 0.7, 95% CI; 0.6–0.8) and above 350 cells/μl (aHR = 0.5, 95% CI; 0.4–0.6) as well as patients ever on IPT (aHR = 0.6, 95% CI; 0.5–0.8) were associated with significantly lower risk of developing TB.
