Diagnostic utility of haematological parameters for tuberculosis in children living with HIV (0–14 years): a retrospective cohort study
Higher MLR and NLR ratios were associated with increased odds of having TB in CLHIV. The combination of these hematological parameters, along with anemia status, exhibited promising predictive ability for TB in this population. These findings highlight the potential utility of routinely available hematological parameters in predicting TB disease in CLHIV.
