Fig. 5From: Severe pulmonary radiological manifestations are associated with a distinct biochemical profile in blood of tuberculosis patients with dysglycemiaMultivariable regression analysis to evaluate association between HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, prediabetes, and diabetes with diversity and number of lung lesions in pulmonary TB patients. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to test association between indicated variables and odds of presenting with 3 types of lung lesions (a) and the number of lung lesions ≥4 (b) in radiographic evaluation of TB patients. In univariate model, each variable was tested individually. The adjusted model included all the variables shown in the graphs in addition to age, sex, prior TB, ≥2+ AFB smear and hemoglobin level.
