    (Oxford University Press, 2016-10-28) Maraba, Noriah; Karat, Aaron S.; McCarthy, Kerrigan; Churchyard, Gavin J.; Charalambous, Salome; Kahn, Kathleen; Grant, Alison D.; Chihota, Violet
    Background: Adults being investigated for TB in South Africa experience high mortality, yet causes of death (CoD) are not well defined. We determined CoD in this population using verbal autopsy (VA), and compared HIV- and TB-associated CoD using physician-certified verbal autopsy (PCVA) and InterVA-4 software.
