In comparison to immunocompetent controls with negative QFT+ results, tuberculosis incidence was significantly higher in immunocompromised individuals with indeterminate QFT+ results (IRR 18.6 (95% CI 1.2–297.0)), whereas the difference did not reach statistical significance for immunocompromised individuals with positive QFT+ results (IRR 7.0 (95% CI 0.7–66.9), Table 3 ).
