Study participant characteristics.

Characteristic	Uninfected ()	LTBI ()	Active PTB ()	value^1
Mean age & range (years)	16 (1, 66)	24 (1, 66)	30 (18, 53)	<0.0001
Females	39 (57.4%)	41 (65%)	44 (41.1%)	0.006
HIV positive	6 (8.8%)	5 (7.9%)	42 (39.3%)	<0.0001
Low SES^2	34 (50.8%)	32 (51%)	58 (61%)	0.309

LTBI = latent tuberculosis infection, SES = socioeconomic status, and APTB = active pulmonary tuberculosis.
¹ values are from chi-square tests of associations.
²Individuals were either of low or medium SES.
