Figure 3

Post-test probability of tuberculosis when using a combined screening strategy of sputum AFB and urine LAM testing for various pre-test probabilities. Column A represents a cohort with 10% prevalence of tuberculosis; columns B and C represent the baseline prevalence of culture-positive pulmonary tuberculosis (17.5%) and clinically suspected tuberculosis (26.9%) that we observed in our cohort. Column D represents a cohort with a 40% prevalence of tuberculosis, which might occur among tuberculosis suspects in a highly endemic region.
