Difference in yield of screening in asylum seekers from countries depending on the WHO-estimated incidence of TB in their country of origin, adjusted for age, sex, and period-effects, 2002–2015, Germany, N = 116,813. Legend: Cut-off: Derived from WHO-estimated incidence of TB per 100,000. RR: Relative rate. CrI: Credible interval. Estimates derived from five distinct multiple Bayesian Poisson regression models. The reference group for each cut-off (e.g. ≥ 150) is the group of asylum seekers from countries with values of WHO-estimated TB incidence lower than the respective cut-off (e.g. < 150)
