Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
Screening for the trial began in February 2004 in Vitória, Brazil. Non-HIV infected adults aged 18-65 years with suspected pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) were recruited at local TB posts and the Hospital Universitario Cassiano Antonio de Moraes of the Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (UFES) in Vitória. Enrollment was completed in October 2007.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
A total of 113 adults with suspected pulmonary TB were evaluated for study participation. Forty-three were excluded because they did not meet the eligibility criteria, leaving a total of 70 patients.
