Analysis reveals risk factors and mortality predictors for tuberculous pleural effusion in TB patients, highlighting the role of whole-course management.

Key Points

MAIN FINDING: The study identifies risk factors for tuberculous pleural effusion in TB patients, including male gender and age ≥ 70 years.
KEY EVIDENCE: Multivariate logistic regression confirmed male gender and psychosis history as independent risk factors for tuberculous pleural effusion.
APPROACH: A total of 18,258 TB patients were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic and Cox regression models.
SIGNIFICANCE: Findings emphasize the importance of whole-course management for reducing mortality in patients with tuberculous pleural effusion.
