BACKGROUND: Patients with tuberculosis (TB) often suffer from profound malnutrition. OBJECTIVE: To examine the patterns and predictors of change in nutritional and hemoglobin status during and after TB treatment. METHODS: A total of 471 human immunode ciency virus (HIV) positive and 416 HIV-negative adults with pulmonary TB were prospectively followed in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. All patients received 8 months' TB treatment following enrollment. RESULTS: About 40% of HIV-positive and 47% of HIVnegative TB patients had body mass index (BMI) < 18.5 kg/m 2 at baseline, while about 94% of HIV-positive and 84% of HIV-negative participants were anemic at baseline. Both HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients experienced increases in BMI and hemoglobin concen- trations over the course of TB treatment. Among HIV- positive patients, older age, low CD4 cell counts, and high viral load were independently associated with a smaller increase in BMI from baseline to 8 months. Fe- male sex, older age, low CD4 cell counts, previous TB in- fection and less money spent on food were independently associated with a smaller improvement in hemoglobin levels among HIV-positive patients during treatment. CONCLUSION: HIV-positive TB patients, especially those with low CD4 cell counts, showed poor nutritional re- covery during TB treatment. Adequate nutritional sup- port should be considered during TB treatment.
