Univariate analysis indicated that disease stage, fatigue, fever, anorexia, splenomegaly, arthritis, paraspinal abscess, joint effusion, platelet count (PLT), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), albumin (ALB), total bilirubin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), serum agglutination test (SAT), procalcitonin (PCT), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were associated with culture positivity. This evidence concerns the gene GPT and Splenomegaly.
