This is a cross-sectional study which sought to analyze the effectiveness of the GeneXpert® MTB/RIF test and the characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) cases associated with the negative test result among people with HIV co-infection. The study was conducted in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, and the data were collected from the Information System in TB. The highest occurrence of negative result among the cases that performed the test was observed among: people aged 60 or older (PR 1.53; CI95% 1.22-1.93); females (PR 1.24; CI95% 1.08- 1.41); miliary TB (PR 1.99; CI95% 1.55-2.56); X-ray image suggestive of other pathologies (PR 1.83; CI95% 1.16-2.87); non-smokers (PR 1.20; CI95% 1.03-1.39); non-alcohol users (PR 1.21; CI95% 1.03-1.42); and non-users of illicit drugs (PR 1.33; CI95% 1.15-1.53). Thus, people with these characteristics deserve more attention when they present respiratory symptoms suggestive of TB in healthcare facilities.
