Probablities of specific outcomes for TB in HIV-infected children and adolescents, 2013–2017. A) Probability (with 95% CIs) of outcomes stratified by age at start of TB treatment. B) Instantaneous odds ratios for death at each age. The odds ratio reflects the change in odds of death according to age at start of TB treatment. LTFU-TO, lost to follow-up or transferred out; TB, tuberculosis.
