| Nested RT-PCR | GeneXpert | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PCR method | aOR | 95% CI | aOR | 95% CI |
| Age (month)* | 0.975 | 0.963 to 0.986 | 0.977 | 0.965 to 0.989 |
| Peripheral WBC count (/mm3)† | 0.829 | 0.760 to 0.903 | 0.893 | 0.815 to 0.979 |
| Peripheral ANC (/mm3)† | 0.942 | 0.879 to 1.010 | 0.934 | 0.862 to 1.012 |
| Onset-puncture interval (day)‡ | 0.442 | 0.228 to 0.855 | 0.685 | 0.354 to 1.326 |
*Reflects the increase in the odds of lack of pleocytosis for each 4-week increase in age.
†Reflects the increase in the odds of lack of pleocytosis for each 500-cell increase in WBC/Neutrophil count.
‡Reflects the increase in the odds of lack of pleocytosis for each 24-h increase in time.
ANC, absolute neutrophil count; aOR, adjusted OR; CI, confidence interval.
