Central nervous system tuberculosis: characteristics, risks, and outcomes in California adults, 2010–2022
More than one quarter of patients with CNS TB died. People with TB caused by <i>M. bovis</i>, were more likely to have CNS TB than people with TB caused by non-<i>M. bovi</i>s forms of the <i>M. tuberculosis</i> complex. Further efforts to prevent, rapidly diagnose, and effectively treat CNS TB is warranted.
