In the random-effects multivariable logistic regression model, for participants with microbiologically confirmed tuberculosis who were on ART, with other variables held at their mean (ie, CD4 count and age), participants with positive Urine-Xpert Ultra results remained at higher risk of death by 10 weeks than those with negative results (adjusted OR 2·1 [95% CI 0·9–4·8]), with a conditional average effect on death by 10 weeks of 5·8% (95% CI 0·1–6·5). Here, CD4 is linked to tuberculosis.
