Factors associated with extrapulmonary tuberculosis in comparison to pulmonary tuberculosis in patients with and without HIV in Bogotá, Colombia: an observational study
EPTB is primarily associated with HIV infection, while smoking, DM, COPD, other pulmonary diseases, and immunosuppressant use are associated with PTB. Variability in associated factors for specific EPTB forms underlines the need for tailored research into the predisposing factors for EPTB, particularly in HIV-negative patients.
