Of these, 458 patients (75%) [mean age: 38.6\u00b116.3 yr; 295 (64.4%) males] underwent HIV testing; HIV-co-infection was present in 21 (4.6%) patients. A significantly higher proportion of HIV co-infection was evident in PTB compared with EPTB [13\/179 (7.2%) vs 8\/279 (2.8%); respectively, P<\/jats:italic>=0.038] and in previously treated patients compared to new patients [6\/51 (11.8%) vs 15\/407 (3.7%); respectively, P<\/jats:italic>=0.009].<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Interpretation & conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n The findings of this study showed that a higher proportion of TB patients underwent HIV testing (75%) compared to the national figure of 63 per cent in 2013-2014. HIV seropositivity (4.6%) in TB patients who underwent HIV testing was similar to the five per cent figure observed at national level during 2013-2014. The HIV status of 25 per cent of patients with incident TB still remained unknown, suggesting a need for better integration and co-ordination for effective management of HIV-TB co-infection.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijmr.ijmr_639_15","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,13]],"date-time":"2018-04-13T08:42:57Z","timestamp":1523608977000},"page":"774-779","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Provider-initiated HIV testing & counselling in incident tuberculosis cases under National TB Programme conditions at a tertiary care teaching hospital in Tirupati, south India"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"146","author":[{"given":"Alladi","family":"Mohan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Harikrishna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D.
