Clinical features, long-term clinical outcomes, and prognostic factors of tuberculous meningitis in West China: a multivariate analysis of 154 adults

Abstract

Mortality and disability associated with TBM are high in China. Limb weakness, GCS scores, cranial-nerve palsy and hydrocephalus were independent predictors of poor outcomes, and AGR, NLR, D-dimer, and EEG abnormalities may be prognostic factors of TBM.
