Household air pollution and risk of pulmonary tuberculosis in HIV-Infected adults

Table 5 Multivariable analysis: 24h personal CO and time spent in kitchen as predictors for tuberculosis among 255 HIV-Infected outpatients attending ART-clinics in South Kivu, DRC

Variables	All participants (n=255) (96 cases / 159 controls)		Females only (n=197) (77 cases / 120 controls)
Variables	Aor	p	aOR	p
TWA CO, continuous per log10 (ppm)	1.50 (1.01-2.23)	0.046	4.24 (1.09-16.49)	0.04
Time spent in kitchen, high ^§ vs low	2.80 (1.08-7.24)	0.03	3.33 (1·16-9.54)	0.03
MAX CO, continuous per log10 (ppm)	0.90 (0.58-1.32)	0·54	1.79 (0.46-7.03)	0.41
Time spent in kitchen, high ^§ vs low	2.53 (1.00-6.41)	0.05	2.76 (1.02-7.47)	0.046

CO Carbon monoxide, TWA Time-weighted average, MAX Maximum concentration, aOR adjusted odds ratio (95% CI); ^§ high= >3h/day AND ≥2 times/day AND >5 days/week
