摘要
In a retrospective analysis, paradoxical deterioration of lymph node tuberculosis in human immunodeficiency virus uninfected patients was common, occurring in 25 (23%) of 109 patients after treatment had been given for a median of 46 days (interquartile range, 21 - 139 days) and persisting for a median of 67.5 days ( interquartile range, 34 - 111 days). We found no association between the use of steroids and the duration of reaction.
