When MCH was added as a continuous variable in a linear model of whole blood MGIT ~ MCH, MGIT variance was significantly explained by MCH at week 4 (r 2 = 0.33, p < 0.05) and trending towards significance at week 8 (r 2 = 0.19, p = 0.06).

However, that Hb and MCH have an almost significant correlation in this study (Spearman’s, p = 0.07, data not shown) suggests that mycobacterial growth may also be associated with Hb given a larger sample size.
