Monocyte distribution width as an adjunctive biomarker for differentiating pulmonary tuberculosis from cavitary nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease.

Differentiation between PTB and cavitary NTM-PD In multivariable logistic regression analysis including radiological grade as a prespecified covariate, MDW showed a trend toward association with PTB compared with cavitary NTM-PD, although statistical significance was not reached (adjusted OR 1.37, 95% CI 0.98–1.92, P = 0.066) (Table 3 ).
