Differences in brain volume and thickness in patients with pulmonary or spine tuberculosis (TB) compared to non-TB individuals: A cross-sectional retrospective study

Differences in brain volume and thickness in patients with pulmonary or spine tuberculosis (TB) compared to non-TB individuals: A cross-sectional retrospective study

Introduction: There is evidence showing that central nervous system TB (CNS-TB) causes meningitis, pachymeningitis, tuberculomas, and granulomas. However, the impact of pulmonary or spine TB on brain morphology and thickness is yet to be documented. TB is associated with increased levels of inflamma...
