Declines in Lung Function After Antiretroviral Therapy Initiation in Adults With Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Tuberculosis: A Potential Manifestation of Respiratory Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome

Auld, Sara C.; Maenetje, Pholo; Ravimohan, Shruthi; Weissman, Drew; Ncube, Itai; Mlotshwa, Mandla; Ratsela, Nelly; Chase, William; Vangu, Mboyo-Di-Tamba; Wallis, Robert; et al. (2020-04-10)

In this prospective cohort study, one-half of adults with human immunodeficiency virus and pulmonary tuberculosis experienced meaningful declines in lung function on antiretroviral therapy, suggesting a role for lung function in TB-IRIS definitions.
