Tobacco use or body mass--do they predict tuberculosis mortality in Mumbai, India? Results from a population-based cohort study.

Tobacco use and under-nutrition are major public health concerns and tuberculosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in India. Using a cohort of 148,173 persons (recruited 1991-1997 and followed-up 1997-2003) the joint effects of tobacco use and BMI on tuberculosis mortality was studied. To...
