Retrospective study reveals HIV co-infection increases severity and complication rates in tuberculosis patients.

Patients with HIV co-infection showed significantly higher rates of generalized tuberculosis, reaching 28.8%.
Mortality rates were markedly higher among HIV-positive individuals, with 28.1% compared to 6.9% in the control group.
Common conditions like anemia and leukopenia appeared more frequently in co-infected patients, at rates of 58.8% and 16.3%, respectively.
Bilateral lung lesions and opportunistic infections were also more prevalent in those with HIV, highlighting the need for integrated treatment.

Ivanes et al. (2025) studied this question.
