Reviewing the causes of death
may lead to further understanding of the timeline and natural history of TB-HIV coinfection,
and in so doing help to devise an effective prevention strategy in Chiang Rai. In this study, we
aimed to investigate the distribution of confirmed causes of death in patients coinfected with TB
and HIV in Chiang Rai, describe the causes of such deaths along the timeline of TB treatment,
and identify predictors of each cause of death.
